Comment(by arma):

 Probably the "right" answer here is to turn
 time_to_download_next_consensus into an array based on flavor. Then we can
 have a time for each flavor, and move the "if" clause down a few lines
 into the "for" loop in update_consensus_networkstatus_downloads().

 I spent a while thinking about hackish ways too, e.g.
 time_to_download_next_consensus should be now if there's any consensus
 whose flavor we don't have. But I think they are all too hackish.
