Comment:
I think I might need to change this check to tolerate consensuses as old
as REASONABLY_LIVE_CONSENSUS (24 hours), because of #20909.
Ideally, we should only tolerate RELAY_CLOCK_SKEW (3 hours) or maybe even
RELAY_CLOCK_SKEW - 2 hours = 1 hour, because directory mirrors should
update in the first hour. (Check this with the dir-spec.)
