New description:

 This is maybe a lot of work, but it would help if we could make all the
 once-a-second portions of this function into things that we can turn off
 if we're dormant?  I'm hoping for a feature (optional?) where a dormant
 onion service does the minimum work possible to keep itself online and
 wait for introductions.

 This is a reach task; if we do the rest of the parent ticket, we'll be
 fine.
