It is possible in normal circumstances that a client fetches a descriptor
that has a lower revision counter than the one in its cache. This can happen
due to HSDir desync.

In 0.3.2.1-alpha, we've added this function in order to have a way to notify
other subsystems that the consensus just changed. The old consensus and the
new one are passed to it.
Before this patch, this was done _before_ the new consensus was set globally
(thus NOT accessible by getting the latest consensus). The scheduler
notification was assuming that it was set and select_scheduler() is looking at
the latest consensus to get the parameters it might needs. This was very wrong
because at that point it is still the old consensus set globally.
With this commit, notify_networkstatus_changed() has been moved _after_ the
new consensus is set globally. The main obvious reasons is to fix the bug
described above and in #24975. The other reason is that this notify function
doesn't return anything which could be allowing the possibility of refusing to
set the new consensus on error. In other words, the new consensus is set right
after the notification whatever happens.
It does no harm or change in behavior to set the new consensus first and then
notify the subsystems. The two functions currently used are for the control
port using the old and new consensus and sending the diff. The second is the
scheduler that needs the new consensus to be set globally before being called.
Of course, the function has been documented accordinly to clearly state it is
done _after_ the new consensus is set.

This patch updates the HiddenServiceVersion man-page entry to only
accept either 2 or 3 as argument and not a list of multiple versions.
See: https://bugs.torproject.org/25026
Previously, we wouldn't do this when running with a routerinfo_t in
some cases, leading to many needless calls to the protover module.
This change also cleans up the code in nodelist.c a bit.
Fixes bug 25008; bugfix on 0.2.9.4-alpha.
For 23847, we want Tor to be able to shut down and then restart in
the same process. Here's a patch to make the Tor binary do that.
To test it, you need to build with --enable-restart-debugging, and
then you need to set the environment variable TOR_DEBUG_RESTART.
With this option, Tor will then run for 5 seconds, then restart
itself in-process without exiting. This only happens once.
You can change the 5-second interval using
TOR_DEBUG_RESTART_AFTER_SECONDS.
Implements ticket 24583.
Fix an "off by 2" error in counting rendezvous failures on the onion
service side.
While we thought we would stop the rendezvous attempt after one failed
circuit, we were actually making three circuit attempts before giving up.
Fixes bug 24895; bugfix on 0.0.6.
