---------------------------------+--------------------
In #20499 we see a potential bug where relays opt to stop getting
directory information.
How pervasive is this bug in practice?
Doing a scan of these relays to see which consensus they give us could be
quite enlightening.
Also, once we have a module in our scanners to do this test, it would
probably be wise to automate running it every so often, as an early (ok,
not so early really) warning system to catch regressions.
(In theory all 0.2.9 relays should be caching directory stuff now, right?)
