Comment(by nickm):

 Okay.  Hm.  In the meantime, merging the bufferevent stuff has made it so
 that checking conn->write_event doesn't make sense for bufferevent-based
 connections.  I'll need to look into that and figure out the right
 approach.  Further, if a bufferevent-based connection is in
 STATE_RESOLVING, I am not sure that it actually _has_ a bufferevent object
 to queue the outgoing data on yet.  We should check that out.

 A question making the circuit_consider_sending_sendme() code conditional
 on "!optimistic_data": suppose that the client sends enough optimistic
 data for the server to exhaust its window, then the client stops sending
 data before the connection is complete.  In this case, will the server
 ever send the client SENDME cell?
