 This will be trivial to do, but nontrivial to know when we should do it.

 prop224-supporting hidden services and relays will need to know which Tor
 relays they should use to upload and download the new kind of descriptors.
 So, they should use the preferred mechanism for it.

 As of proposal 264, that's protocol subversions.

 We should only advertise support for this server-side once we're pretty
 sure we aren't changing the server side any more.
