Comment (by arma):

 Roger's status: I think we need to ignore past intro point failures if
 they're from more than 5 minutes ago. Only very recent intro point
 failures should be remembered.

 This is especially important if we merge #4862 too, since we're going to
 have onion services that go offline for a little while (during which Alice
 fails to reach it), and then it comes back and re-establishes its intro
 points, and then Alice tries to visit it again and preemptively gives up
 because her intro point failure cache says they will all fail
