Comment(by karsten):

 Patch looks good.  I didn't compile or test anything, but I read the code.
 Here are a few comments:

  - The documentation of `connection_bucket_refill_helper` in
 `connection.c` says the burst value is measured per refill interval, but
 `connection_bucket_refill` passes the value from `options->BandwidthBurst`
 which is still per second.  Are we sure we're using the right burst value?

  - There's a copy-paste error in the calls of
 `connection_bucket_refill_helper` where one of the `"global_read_bucket"`s
 should be `"global_write_bucket"`.

  - The documentation in `or.h` says that `TokenBucketRefillInterval` is
 ignored when bufferevents are enabled.  This isn't the case anymore,
 right?
