 At OpenKeychain we will allow key updates to be routed over Orbot in a
 future version. This requires Orbot to be installed and then we use
 org.torproject.android.START_TOR to start Orbot.
 This does not work when Orbot hasn't been properly started before without
 using this Intent, i.e., it hasn't really been set up.

 This should be handled somehow. At least there needs to be a message that
 the User first needs to start Orbot on its own.
