#8625: Do not call networkstatus_reset_download_failures() hourly
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------

-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Once an hour, we call router_reset_descriptor_download_failures, which
calls networkstatus_reset_download_failures(). This probably isn't right!
Our download logic has a way to say "Try this once an hour": that's by
having a download schedule with a one-hour interval. What this does is
make us retry several times an hour, as if we had never failed before.
Found while investigating #4580 .
