Subject: handle ugly edge case in retrying entrynodes
Commit: 9997676802c140aceddb849090c7b3795fc83361

Specifically, a circ attempt that we'd launched while the network was
down could timeout after we've marked our entrynodes up, marking them
back down again. The fix is to annotate as bad the OR conns that were
around before we did the retry, so if a circuit that's attached to them
times out we don't do anything about it.
