Warn if ports are specified in {Socks,Dir}Policy
We have ignored any ports listed here since 80365b989 (0.0.7rc1), but we didn't warn the user that we were ignoring them. This patch adds a warning if you put explicit ports in any of the options {Socks,Dir}Policy or AuthDir{Reject,Invalid,BadDir,BadExit}. It also adjusts the manpage to say that ports are ignored. Fixes ticket 11108.
