[or-cvs] new link padding scheme

[Roger Dingledine]

Update of /home/or/cvsroot/src/or
In directory moria.seul.org:/home/arma/work/onion/cvs/src/or

Modified Files:
	connection.c main.c 
Log Message:
new link padding scheme

we're now much more robust when bandwidth varies: instead of forcing a
fixed bandwidth on the link, we instead use what the link will give us,
up to our bandwidth.
