 When we make chutney check for microdescriptors, we can stop waiting a set
 time for microdescriptors to download.

 Please read these instructions carefully. Don't leave out any steps!

 First, set MIN_START_TIME_LEGACY and NODE_WAIT_FOR_UNCHECKED_DIR_INFO to
 0:
 https://github.com/torproject/chutney/blob/master/lib/chutney/TorNet.py#L926
 https://github.com/torproject/chutney/blob/master/lib/chutney/TorNet.py#L952

 Then check that `make test-network-all` still passes on:
 * Tor master, and
 * Tor maint-0.3.5

 You can build a different tor branch using the following commands:
 {{{
 git checkout <branch>
 make
 }}}

 Check the new code on your own machine, and then submit a pull request to
 run Chutney's CI.

 If all those tests pass, you can remove all the code that uses
 MIN_START_TIME_LEGACY and NODE_WAIT_FOR_UNCHECKED_DIR_INFO:
 * remove NODE_WAIT_FOR_UNCHECKED_DIR_INFO
 * replace NODE_WAIT_FOR_UNCHECKED_DIR_INFO with 0 in
 getUncheckedDirInfoWaitTime()
 * remove getMinStartTime()
 * remove all the constants getMinStartTime() uses
 * remove all calls to getMinStartTime()
 * remove all the variables, code, and comments that depend on
 getMinStartTime()
   *
 https://github.com/torproject/chutney/blob/master/lib/chutney/TorNet.py#L2224
   *
 https://github.com/torproject/chutney/blob/master/lib/chutney/TorNet.py#L2273

 Then add a commit to your pull request with these changes, and check that
 they pass CI.
