Comment:

 See my pull request https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/639

 Notes:

 GeoIP file hashes might not be sensitive, but the other statistics are
 reasonably sensitive, particularly for private bridges.

 ServerTransportPlugin lines aren't strictly statistics, but they are still
 potentially sensitive.

 We turn off statistics in the extra-info file if we ever fail to parse the
 file. So we should really include all optional chunks under the
 write_stats_to_extrainfo check.
