Comment:

 Looks good to me, I left a review on github with two nitpick changes:
 * fix some missing words in a commit message
 * please don't remove a unit test for a far future consensus method

 We will also need a dir-spec change like this one:
 {{{
 [ As of 0.2.6.1-alpha, authorities no longer advertise or negotiate
           any consensus methods lower than 13. ]
 }}}

 I'm not sure if isis also wants to review this code.

 Let's also make sure someone has run "make test-network-all" on this
 branch on an IPv6/mixed system, with tor-stable linked to 0.2.9.
