conn: Stop writing when our write bandwidth limist is exhausted
Commit 488e2b00bf881b97bcc8e4bbe304845ff1d79a03 introduced an issue, most likely introduced by a bad copy paste, that made us stop reading on the connection if our write bandwidth limit was reached. The problem is that because "read_blocked_on_bw" was never set, the connection was never reenabled for reading. This is most likely the cause of #27813 where bytes were accumulating in the kernel TCP bufers because tor was not doing reads. Only relays with RelayBandwidthRate would suffer from this but affecting all relays connecting to them. And using that tor option is recommended and best practice so many many relays have it enabled. Fixes #28089.

+ o Major bugfixes (relay):
+ - When our write bandwidth limit is exhausted, stop writing on the
+ connection. Previously, we had a typo in the code that would make us stop
+ reading leading to relay connections being stuck indefinitely. Fixes bug
