This representation is meant to save memory in microdescriptors --
we can't use it in routerinfo_t yet, since those families need to be
encoded losslessly for directory voting to work.

This representation saves memory in three ways:
   1. It uses only one allocation per family.  (The old way used a
      smartlist (2 allocs) plus one strdup per entry.)
   2. It stores identity digests in binary, not hex.
   3. It keeps families in a canonical format, memoizes, and
      reference-counts them.

Part of #27359.

History
Tor protects your privacy on the internet by hiding the connection
between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.

To build Tor from source:
        ./configure && make && make install

To build Tor from a just-cloned git repository:
        sh autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install
