New description:

 Non-directory mirrors,  should fetch from directory mirrors on a client
 schedule.

 * Make non-directory mirror relays (there won't be many of these after
 #12538), fetch from directory mirrors. They should FetchDirInfoEarly 0,
 just like clients do.
 * Make anything that isn't an authority, fallback directory mirror, or
 directory mirrors fetch from directory mirrors, FetchDirInfoEarly 0, just
 like clients do.
 * Modify directory_should_fetch_from_authorities():
   * change !server_mode or !advertised_server_mode to server_mode and
 advertised_server_mode and make those servers fetch on a client-like
 schedule
   * make the default case 0
