 with #25195 implemented, lets move this banner even further.

 we currently say:
 "This relay is running an outdated Tor version and should be updated to a
 recent release of Tor that may contain important fixes."

 also on relays running bleeding edge tor code (i.e. nightly builds).

 Tor says something more accurate, something like:
 "This version of Tor is newer than any recommended version, according to
 the directory authorities."

 lets adopt something like that in atlas as well?
 This affects far more relays than #25195 did (currently ~70)
