Comment (by catalyst):
Thanks for the updated patches, and sorry about the delay. I'll comment
on the torspec changes first.
The patch to `dir-spec.txt` looks good. It could possibly be more
specific about referring to the microdescriptors rather than router
descriptors (where I think we should still allow optional padding because
they're self-signed).
There are a few more places that need updated text about `ntor-onion-key`:
* Section 3.3 (Computing microdescriptors) should mention that prior to
consensus method 27, `=` padding is required, and the padding must be
absent in consensus method 27 and later.
* Section 3.8.1 (Forward compatibility) should get an additional line for
"27".
There might be other places I missed; please let me know if you find
others!
