#3847: Provide ability to round robin outgoing connections on multiple interfaces

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Multithreading support may improve our ability to support high-throughput
multicore tor nodes, but it is not the whole story. To avoid TCP source
port exhaustion on high capacity relays, we will need the ability to
support multiple interfaces for outgoing exit connections.
To minimize stupid website breakage, we probably want to keep every
connection from the same circuit on the same interface, but round robin
circuits across different outgoing interfaces.
