    The problem is that clients and hidden services are receiving
    relay_early cells, and they tear down the circuit.
    
    Hack #1 is for rendezvous points to rewrite relay_early cells to
    relay cells. That way there are never any incoming relay_early cells.
    
    Hack #2 is for clients and hidden services to never send a relay_early
    cell on an established rendezvous circuit. That works around rendezvous
    points that haven't upgraded yet.
    
    Hack #3 is for clients and hidden services to not tear down the circuit
    when they receive an inbound relay_early cell. We already refuse extend
    cells at clients.
