 issues.

 I've added a fixup commits for the typos.  To solve the commit
 message/content issues, I had to squash those and make a new rebased
 branch, as `ticket31705_v2`.  This still had merge conflicts with master,
 so it is merged in a `ticket31705_v2_merged` branch.  The PR for that is
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/1447 .

 > How do you want to make progress on the remaining files?
 > Do you want to set up CI, so we preserve cocci compatibility over time?

 I don't have a strong opinion here right now: I think it would make more
 sense to get some experience using coccinelle more in our regular
 development workflow, so we can decide how to prioritize these items.
