Comment(by nickm):

 The "rep_hist_add_desc_stats" identifier seems vague.  How about
 rep_hist_note_desc_served() or something?

 The documentation for "served_descs" should say what the keys and values
 of the map are.

 I'd be more comfortable if rep_hist_desc_stats_init() were idempotent --
 that is, if it did "if (served_descs) return;" rather than
 "tor_assert(!served_descs)".

 In rep_hist_format_desc_stats, if time moves backwards we'll be sad.

 As a separate patch, we should raise the "write a stats file code" into a
 function of its own.  I added ticket #4282 for that.

 Otherwise looks fine.
