    TROVE-2017-005: Fix assertion failure in connection_edge_process_relay_cell
    
    On an hidden service rendezvous circuit, a BEGIN_DIR could be sent
    (maliciously) which would trigger a tor_assert() because
    connection_edge_process_relay_cell() thought that the circuit is an
    or_circuit_t but is an origin circuit in reality.
    
    Fixes #22494
