#3825: HS intro points overloaded with CREATE cells cause connectivity failures

Comment(by rransom):
There is one more change that might help fix this issue: we could make
relays which are overloaded with CREATE cells close some intro-point
circuits (specifically, any intro point which a client introduces to while
the relay is overloaded). I'm pretty sure that this change would not make
any hidden service less reachable, but it could put significantly more
load on the HSDir relays for a hidden service.
