Changes (by yawning):

 * status:  needs_information => accepted


Comment:

 After sleeping on it for a bit, and talking to arma:
  * Ephemeral HSes SHOULD persist through config reload (HUPing for log
 rotation was brought up as an example).
  * `DEL_EPH_HS` SHOULD be case sensitive for future proofing.
  * `DEL_EPH_HS` SHOULD NOT kill client connections, but see #14852.
  * I might as well scrub the service id after processing a `DEL_EPH_HS` in
 the control code.

 Re-accepting, since that covers most of the design questions.
