#4185: Bridge easily detected by GFW

Comment(by asn):
We know that GFW detects the SSL handshake of bridges and probes them
aftewards, effectively blocking unpublished bridges. And they probably
also have a list of published and detected bridges who they block on
sight.
People can probably use obfsproxy.git with tor.git with success, but that
requires too much effort for non-technical people. Next step is when #3472
gets merged, and we make some sort of bundle including obfsproxy with
obfs2.
