 s/attempted parse this file/attempted to parse this file/

 When giving the URLs where the authority list and fallback list can be
 received, we should probably make it clear that automatically fetching
 them is _not_ recommended.


 Otherwise this branch looks good to me.  Do we currently have anything
 that consumes these files, other than our C compiler when we build Tor?
 If not, we should document that fact, since whoever is the first to
 actually parse it based on the documentation will be a surprised person.
