Comment:

 After discussion with nickm on IRC, we'll drop this idea and instead go
 with this deployment plan:

 1) emit=v1, accept=v0, protover=v0
 2) emit=v1, accept=v0, protover=v1
 3) emit=v1, accept=v1, protover=v1

 Bottom line is that during phase 2, we will exit() all `tor` that do not
 support SENDME >= v1 but still accept v0 so bootstrapping tor can learn
 what is required. Finally, phase 3 will stop all this madness and
 normalize everyone to v1.

 This mean that we'll drop this ticket entirely. I've opened #30557 for the
 change on the spec.
