 Hi, the 'directory-signature' lines in microdescriptor consensus appear to
 have an extra undocumented field...

 From section 3.3 (Vote and consensus status documents):

 {{{
 "directory-signature" SP identity SP signing-key-digest NL Signature
 }}}

 If this was any different for microdescriptor consensuses then it should
 say so in section 3.6.2 (Microdescriptor consensus).

 Example from my cached-consensus...

 {{{
 directory-signature 14C131DFC5C6F93646BE72FA1401C02A8DF2E8B4
