Comment (by nickm):

 1. Why disable cannibalization when we're using this feature?  I'm not
 sure what the benefit is supposed to be, and I don't see it explained
 above.

 2. I'd be more comfortable if the code here were mostly #if'd out when we
 aren't building with tor2web mode.  (e.g, if the pick_tor2web_rendezvous
 node didn't exist for most builds.)

 3. Should we safe_str_client() our choice of rendezvous point?

 Other than that, does it look okay to me.  Does it work?
