    heartbeat: Log the number of circuits killed because too many cells
    
    We recently merged a circuit cell queue size safeguard. This commit adds the
    number of killed circuits that have reached the limit to the DoS heartbeat. It
    now looks like this:
    
      [notice] DoS mitigation since startup: 0 circuits killed with too many
      cells. 0 circuits rejected, 0 marked addresses. 0 connections closed. 0
      single hop clients refused.
    
    Second thing that this patch does. It makes tor always print the DoS
    mitigation heartbeat line (for a relay) even though no DoS mitigation have
    been enabled. The reason is because we now kill circuits that have too many
    cells regardless on if it is enabled or not but also it will give the operator
    a chance to learn what is enabled with the heartbeat instead of suddenly
    appearing when it is enabled by let say the consensus.
    
    Fixes #25824
