 While working on Sponsor 13 deliverable 2 I noticed that the
 [https://metrics.torproject.org/connbidirect.html Fraction of connections
 used uni-/bidirectionally graph] would better fit into the
 [https://metrics.torproject.org/bandwidth.html Traffic category] rather
 than the [https://metrics.torproject.org/torperf.html Performance
 category] it's currently in.

 Both categories are related. But my understanding of the Traffic category
 is that we're looking at statistics on the traffic in the Tor network that
 is generated by users and relayed by servers.

 On the other hand, the Performance category is for statistics on
 performance measurements that we're doing specifically for the purpose of
 measuring the Tor network.

 After moving the graph, all graphs in Traffic would be based on Tor
 descriptors, whereas all graphs in Performance would be based on
 Torperf/OnionPerf measurements. (In the future, we might add more graphs
 to the Performance category, which would also be based on OnionPerf
 measurements.)

 I'll prepare a branch.
