#6430: arm circuit list scares relay operators by telling them they're an exit

--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 When you attach arm to your shiny new relay, and it does a reachability
 test by making a circuit back to itself, arm labels the third hop in that
 circuit the 'Exit'. Which makes at least one user freak out because he
 thought he set his exit policy to reject *:*.

 Perhaps arm should learn whether circuits are Internal or not (via the
 getinfo details), and call the final hop something other than Exit in that
 case?
