Comment:

 I think we should merge the code in this branch to 0.4.0 and master, then
 do the connection_dir_buf_add() refactor and backports in #29896 and
 #29897.

 Here are the pull requests, any merger can merge after CI passes:
 0.3.5: https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/852
 master: https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/853 (clean merge, testing
 only, I wonder if practracker will error)

 I tried rebasing to 0.3.4, and it wasn't clean, so we won't backport to
 0.3.4.
 (By the time we backport this feature, most authorities should be on
 0.3.5, or the new 0.4.0 stable.)
