Comment:

 As for the circ_times vs. function to get timeouts, I like the idea of
 abstracting the timeout query in a function, but LearnCBT == 0 isn't the
 only circumstance we want to disable this code in.  It's also possible to
 get a cbtdisabled consensus parameter.  If we do that, we'd want the
 function to call circuit_build_times_disabled() like everything else does
 rather than check LearnCBT directly.
