Feature idea: dedicated onion/exit middles and rates

Hi. Thought that there might be those out there that may wish to
allot their middle node resources to specific types of traffic or
a combination thereof.

onion only - for supporting onionland
exit only - for supporting realworld

These two could be implemented with an advertised flag of some sort.
And they would use the currently existing bandwidth limiters.

onion/exit blend - for supporting both as desired

This would use two new limits that when combined add up to the
existing overall limits. Or maybe a priority based system if one
type would happen to not saturate the overall limits all the time.
