[tor-dev] Problems on torrc.d-style configuration directories

[Daniel Pinto]

I've already created #22391
(https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/22391) to add torrc.d
to the deb package.

I've used /etc/torrc.d instead of the services structure mentioned on
#1922 but feel free to change that.
