Bug 4786 fix: don't convert EARLY to RELAY on v1 connections
We used to do this as a workaround for older Tors, but now it's never the correct thing to do (especially since anything that didn't understand RELAY_EARLY is now deprecated hard).

+ - Feature removal:
+ - When sending or relaying a RELAY_EARLY cell, we used to convert
+ it to a RELAY cell if the connection was using the v1 link
+ protocol. This was a workaround for older versions of Tor, which
+ didn't handle RELAY_EARLY cells properly. Now that all supported
+ versions can handle RELAY_EARLY cells, and now that we're
+ enforcing the "no RELAY_EXTEND commands except in RELAY_EARLY
+ cells" rule, we're removing this workaround. Addresses bug 4786.
