Comment(by mikeperry):

 As I said in #9156, I think the most sane way forward here is to check to
 see if 'bridge ' is present at the beginning of the line, and if yes,
 accept it, otherwise prepend 'bridge ' to it and shove it into
 SETCONF+SAVECONF/torrc, and let Tor decide if it is actually valid with
 respect to the PT schemes installed or not. That way we can support both
 formats in Tor Launcher.

 Are there any code exec-level dangers to pasting arbitrary bridge lines
 with the current PT scheme?
