Comment (by nickm):

 One wrinkle here is that, with ticket6799_024_v2, client->relay
 connections with no circuits will always be closed by the relay, not the
 client, since the relay will see a non-canonical connection and the client
 will see a canonical connection.  I don't think this hurts anything, since
 neither party is closing "immediately after a DESTROY" as they did before
 (See #12023).
