Comment(by jct):

 The attached '''fac-onionoo2.zip''' is more or less the same that '''fac-
 onionoo.zip''', with some improvements:

   * The query to the Onionoo server was 'factored out' in the new module
 '''query_onionoo.py'''
     * The function '''query_onionoo.query_onionoo_server''' has a new flag
 to detect if is running in a test mode:
       * This is implemented cause the Onionoo server protocol at the
 moment is very unstable, so the new flag it is useful to test the Onionoo
 server protocol.
   * The class '''fac-onionoo.Handler''' that is implementing the 'fac-
 onionoo' protocol with its clients was improved in order to give more
 information.
   * The function '''fac-onionoo.update_local_db''' was improved in order
 to be more robust to errors.
   * The module '''fac-onionoo-test''' has new tests and has improved the
 old tests with the goal of covering as much as possible of the implemented
 functionality.
