#21284: Add torrc option for non-anonymous SocksPort

------------------------------+----------------------------------
Some single onion service users want to use the running tor instance for a
single onion service, and fetching files over tor. They don't care about
their anonymity.
One workaround for this issue is to compile tor with --enable-tor2web-
mode. Another is to run a separate tor instance for file transfers.
We could add a SocksPortNonAnonymousMode to make this easier, but that
could also make it easier for users to lose their anonymity.
