    fix: Misparsing config types for old tor versions
    
    Queries of "GETINFO config/names" can provide documentation as an optional
    third argument. This only appears to happen for older tor versions (like
    0.2.1.25). I was misparsing this, so the documentation was considered to be
    part of the argument type.
