Comment (by nickm):

 Notes:
   * Apparently we have two things called Appendix E in `rend-spec-v3.txt`
 now.  I don't think this is new with this patch, but let's fix that.
   * When you list "./authorized_clients/alice", etc in appendix F, do you
 intend to specify that this list has to be inside the service directory?
 I ask because if you're doing this, I don't think it makes sense to list
 them all separately in the torrc, and list the directory separately as
 well.
   * Do we want to allow multiple keys per file?
   * I'd suggest renaming all the client options so that they don't start
 with "HiddenService": It makes things much easier if only our service-side
 options start with "HiddenService".  How about ClientOnionAuth or
 something?
   * We should say what happens if Tor encounters an unrecognized auth-
 type, user name, or onion service name in one of these files.  I say it
 should ignore that key.
