Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/maint-0.2.3' into maint-0.2.4

Conflicts:
	src/or/or.h
	src/or/relay.c

Conflicts were simple to resolve.  More fixes were needed for
compilation, including: reinstating the tv_to_msec function, and renaming
*_conn_cells to *_chan_cells.

+  o Minor features:
+    - Improve the circuit queue out-of-memory handler. Previously, when
+      we ran low on memory, we'd close whichever circuits had the most
+      queued cells. Now, we close those that have the *oldest* queued
+      cells, on the theory that those are most responsible for us
+      running low on memory. Based on analysis from a forthcoming paper
+      by Jansen, Tschorsch, Johnson, and Scheuermann. Fixes bug 9093.
