 Right now if my bridge descriptor gets uploaded to the directory
 authorities, poof I'm now a public relay, even if I didn't mean to be.

 That's not the end of the world, since I am technically offering to be a
 relay already, and the only difference is that I didn't opt to publish my
 descriptor myself.

 But still it seems like we should make the choice explicit inside the
 descriptor.
