 New guard plan summarized here at https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail
 /tor-dev/2016-July/011234.html

 1) Create main guard selection state data structure (instead of using
 global variables)
  - Ideally there should be no global variables, so that in the future we
 can have multiple parallel guardsets (e.g. prop247)
  - Thoughtworks: guard_selection_t
