Rather like e8e9699c3c239d6c30f9ad414f15d3bad6ec03fd ("Get rid of
tor-proto's ChannelImpl, and use the reactor more instead"), this
admittedly rather large commit refactors the way circuits in `tor-proto`
work, centralising all of the logic in one large nonblocking reactor
which other things send messages into and out of, instead of having a
bunch of `-Impl` types that are protected by mutexes.
Congestion control becomes a lot simpler with this refactor, since the
reactor can manage both stream- and circuit-level congestion control
unilaterally without having to share this information with consumers,
meaning we can get rid of some locks.
The way streams work also changes, in order to facilitate better
handling of backpressure / fairness between streams: each stream now has
a set of channels to send and receive messages over, instead of sending
relay cells directly onto the channel (now, the reactor pulls messages
off each stream in each map, and tries to avoid doing so if it won't be
able to forward them yet).
Additionally, a lot of "close this circuit / stream" messages aren't
required any more, since that state is simply indicated by one end of a
channel going away. This should make cleanup a lot less brittle.
Getting all of this to work involved writing a fair deal of intricate
nonblocking code in Reactor::run_once that tries very hard to be mindful
of making backpressure work correctly (and congestion control); the old
code could get away with having tasks .await on things, but the new
reactor can't really do this (as it'd lock the reactor up), so has to do
everything in a nonblocking manner.
