#26597: Investigate and document additional overhead for first hop when not using
guards

-----------------------------------+------------------
Initial plots in #25774 have shown that there is considerably higher
circuit build latency from building the 1st hop compared to subsequent
hops. This may be due to not using guards and some additional overhead
that is not seen by normal clients when using guards (as it happens before
the circuits are actually needed).
We should investigate this and document it as part of the page on Tor
Metrics for #25774.
