Comment(by asn):

 In the dev meeting, Karsten suggested to add yet another line for
 measuring obfsbridge stats.
 He wants a `dirreq-v3-transport` line with the exact same format as
 `bridge-ip-transports`, that counts consensus fetches instead of direct
 connections. This will improve the granularity of bridge statistics, and
 it will help us count users accurately in scenarios like flashproxy (where
 each client is actually a flashproxy bridge).

 This means that we should be considering the
 `GEOIP_CLIENT_NETWORKSTATUS_V2` and `GEOIP_CLIENT_NETWORKSTATUS` events in
 this case, instead of `GEOIP_CLIENT_CONNECT`.
