Add circumvention settings/moat requests to the logs

💡 Proposal

User Story

If there are problems to bootstrap Tor in censored areas users can share their logs. But currently those logs only include c-tor bootstrap information. Including all Circumvention Settings/moat requests and their error or success will greatly help the anti-censorship team to figure out where the problem is.

Security and Privacy Implications

Security

None.

Privacy

Logs might include private information about the user, we can be careful on what we include.

Accessibility Implications

It should be the same, as the existing log sharing status.
