#33041: Chutney error message says to use 'TOR_DIR' instead of 'CHUTNEY_TOR'

--------------------+----------------------------------
 When you attempt to run Chutney using a command like:

 {{{
 ./chutney configure networks/basic
 }}}

 it will print the following error message if it cannot find {{{tor}}} or
 {{{tor-gencert}}}:

 {{{
 Cannot find the tor-gencert binary at 'tor-gencert' for the command
 line 'tor-gencert --create-identity-key --passphrase-fd 0 <snip>'.
 Set the TOR_DIR environment variable to the directory containing
 tor-gencert.
 }}}

 Chutney (the Python code) does not actually use this {{{TOR_DIR}}}
 environment variable (it's only used by {{{tools/test-network.sh}}} and
 related scripts). Instead the error message should say that the user
 should set the {{{CHUTNEY_TOR}}} and {{{CHUTNEY_TOR_GENCERT}}} environment
 variables.
