Make last_hid_serv_requests functions less fragile

Previously, Tor would dereference a NULL pointer and crash if
lookup_last_hid_serv_request were called before the first call to
directory_clean_last_hid_serv_requests.  As far as I can tell, that's
currently impossible, but I want that undocumented invariant to go away
in case I^Wwe break it someday.
