    hs: Update intro circuit timestamp when re-extending
    
    A client can re-extend up to 3 intro points on the same circuit. This happens
    when we get NACKed by the intro point for which we choose a new intro and
    re-extend the circuit to it.
    
    That process can be arbitrarly long so reset the dirty timestamp of the
    circuit everytime we choose to re-extend so we get a bit more time to actually
    do our introduction.
    
    This is a client circuit so it is short live once opened thus giving us a bit
    more time to complete the introduction is ok.
