+ numerous bugfixes.
o Major features (Proposal 332, onion services, guard selection algorithm):
- Clients and onion services now choose four long-lived "layer 2"
guard relays for use as the middle hop in all onion circuits.
These relays are kept in place for a randomized duration averaging
- 1 week. This mitigates guard discovery attacks against
- clients and short-lived onion services such as OnionShare. Long-
- lived onion services that need high security should still use the
- Vanguards addon (https://github.com/mikeperry-tor/vanguards).
- Closes ticket 40363; implements proposal 333.

been running for a full day. Closes ticket 40337.
- o Minor bugfixes (onion service):
- - Do not flag an HSDir as non-running in case the descriptor upload
- or fetch fails. An onion service closes pending directory
- connections before uploading a new descriptor which leads to
- wrongly flagging many relays and thus affecting circuit path
- selection. Fixes bug 40434; bugfix on 0.2.0.13-alpha.

o Minor bugfixes (circuit padding):
- Don't send STOP circuit padding cells when the other side has
already shut down the corresponding padding machine. Fixes bug
