+ o Infrastructure features:
+ - Introduce new channel_t abstraction between circuits and or_connection_t
+ to allow for implementing alternate OR-to-OR transports. A channel_t is
+ an abstract object which can either be a cell-bearing channel, which is
+ responsible for authenticating and handshaking with the remote OR and
+ transmitting cells to and from it, or a listening channel, which spawns
+ new cell-bearing channels at the request of remote ORs.
+
+ - Also new is the channel_tls_t subclass of channel_t, adapting it to the
+ existing or_connection_t code. The V2/V3 protocol handshaking code
+ which formerly resided in command.c has been moved below the channel_t
+ abstraction layer and may be found in channeltls.c now.
