Change Description

First part of the Torbutton refactor!

Let's move the domain isolation + new circuit out of Torbutton!

I think it's a little bit too late for 12.5, so I've created the 13.0 alpha branch already, as any improvement over the current situation of Torbutton will help!

It also includes some changes for the TorStrings commit (move where we add the DTDs we need on macOS) because this branch started as a branch for #40938 (closed).

I can move them to another MR, if the reviewer prefers so.
