backport candidate (revert part of r9350):

Expire application streams in all cases if they've been around
longer than SocksTimeout. Right now there are some cases where the
stream will live forever, demanding a new circuit every 15 seconds.
Bugfix on 0.1.2.7-alpha; fixes bug 454; reported by lodger.

+  o Major bugfixes (stream expiration):
+    - Expire application streams in all cases if they've been around
+      longer than SocksTimeout. Right now there are some cases where the
+      stream will live forever, demanding a new circuit every 15 seconds.
+      Bugfix on 0.1.2.7-alpha; fixes bug 454; reported by lodger.
+
   o Minor features (directory servers):
     - When somebody requests a list of statuses or servers, and we have
       none of those, return a 404 rather than an empty 200.
