#4721: Control socket available prior to generating DH modulus

Comment:
Marking this as 'normal, 0.2.4.x" now that the "generate your own DH
modulus" feature is now off-by-default.
For my two cents, the sanest approach is to generate the DH modulus in a
separate thread, and let the rest of Tor go on apace. Blocking at all is
silly. The challenge would be making sure we don't open any TLS listeners
until the modulus is done.
