Implement proposal 351
This proposal adds new syntax to the SOCKS5 username/password extension scheme, so that requests with usernames starting with <torS0X> are now reserved. For C tor, all we need to do is reject every username starting with <torS0X> unless it is exactly "<torS0X>0".

+ o Minor features (SOCKS):
+ - Detect invalid SOCKS5 username/password combinations according to
+ new extended parameters syntax. (Currently, this rejects any
+ SOCKS5 username beginning with "<torS0X>", except for the username
+ "<torS0X>0". Such usernames are now reserved to communicate additional
+ parameters with other Tor implementations.)
