Comment (by mikeperry):

 This functionality is provided already by the
 circpad_machine_conditions_t. We can use those conditions to say that
 machines don't activate unless there are a minimum hops built, vanguards
 is enabled, certain usage state conditions, and purpose flags.

 See circpad_machine_conditions_met(), circpad_shutdown_old_machines(),
 circpad_add_matching_machines(), and callers.

 If you think that is sufficient, please close. Otherwise we should figure
 out what else we need soon.
