[tor-relays] Tor relay on Rapsberry Pi 2

[AVee]

Cool, that's four/five times as much as I've seen reported about the Pi 1, 
making it a lot more usefull. So I'm going to see if the Rapberry can beat the 
Banana (which isn't a given, it's 100Mhz slower and Tor doesn't really use the 
extra cores). 
But we'll see where it ends, I'd be content if I can get it to average above 
20Mbit/s
