Comment(by Sebastian):

 Sounds like we should add a new reason here (edge_reason_is_retriable
 contains END_STREAM_REASON_MISC, so we don't end up hurting old Tors); and
 newer Tors could handle it in a way so that they log a protocol warning or
 something to let us know. I don't think we need to worry about having a
 higher false positive rate than on average. If we do, soat should catch it
 hopefully, as this would be more of a sign of a broken relay.

 Relatedly we should include microdescriptors when thinking about how often
 descriptors are fetched, because with microdescs we're going to fetch them
 as soon as they changed and not for a long time if they didn't change.
