Comment:

 Patch LGTM.

 I looked to see what are the consequences of fixing this bug: Now the flag
 `need_to_update_have_min_dir_info` will be set only when we receive new
 dirinfo, instead of every 2 minutes. This means we will check if we have
 enough dirinfo to build a circuit only when needed, and not every 2
 minutes. I think that's what was intended originally, so I think we are
 good here.
