Hacker strikes through student's router

[loki tiwaz]

by adding a protocol to signify persisting connections (so that while a 
circuit operates it is recognised as such) and a single signature check at 
the beginning of the circuit establishment. sure it will add *some* load to 
the server's cpu but the verification only has to be done once every 15 
minutes per user at the most.
