Comment:

 So this was a lot easier than I thought it would be, since the way tor
 handles pt configuration is to mark all running instances for termination,
 and selectively re-enable them based on the new config.

 https://github.com/yawning/tor/tree/bug13213

 With my branch, when DisableNetwork is set, PTs will not be launched, and
 any existing client/server plugins will be terminated.  It additionally
 does not affect the validation of said config directives. Tested with
 `kill -HUP`, `vi`, and `ps`.
