Comment (by asn):

 Oh man. This is indeed some unforeseen changes that need to happen. The
 branch also changes lots of core circuitbuild code that I'm not very
 familiar with.

 I'll make a naughty suggestion for the sake of forward progress:

 - For 0.3.2, we forget about this ticket, and hidden services only use
 link specifiers they recognize and '''ignore''' all others.
 - Then in `prop224-extra`, we implement the functionality of this ticket.

 Do you think that's nuts? Or it might cause forward-compatibility
 problems? AFAIK there are no other link specifier types in the design -- I
 guess the next ones might be PQ stuff?

 If you think that's not the right approach, I will start reviewing this
 branch ASAP.
