 Branch: `ticket30364_041_01`

 The "onehop" concept was dropped because it is actually not reliable to
 figure that out but also it doesn't matter if we have a 3 hop or 1 hop I
 believe.

 In the end, any directory requests on a circuit will result in honoring
 this SENDME version from the consensus param. It is actually hard to
 associate a circuit to a hidden service directory request at the server
 side. Not impossible but hard.
