#4461: Add a consensus parameter for token bucket refill interval

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
When we merged the #3630 code, we changed the token bucket refill interval
from 1/s to 10/s. We're now simulating whether this was a good choice in
#4086.
Roger suggests that we add a consensus parameter that relays use to
override their default token bucket refill interval. If we learn that
10/s wasn't the best choice, we can easily change it for all relays.
Also, a consensus parameter would enable us to run experiments in the live
Tor network, within reasonable bounds.
Thoughts?
