      circuits by using hashtables instead of linear searches over all
      the circuits. These functions previously accounted between 3 and
      7% of CPU usage on some busy relays.
    - Avoid wasting cycles looking for usable circuit IDs. Previously,
      when allocating a new circuit ID, we would in the worst case do a
      linear scan over the entire possible range of circuit IDs before
      deciding that we had exhausted our possibilities. Now, we
      try 64 circuit IDs at random before deciding that we probably
      won't succeed. Fix for a possible root cause of ticket
      #11553.

    - New --enable-expensive-hardening option to turn on security hardening
      options that consume nontrivial amounts of CPU and memory. Right now,
      this includes AddressSanitizer and UbSan. Closes ticket 11477.
    - If you don't specify MaxMemInQueues yourself, Tor now tries to
      pick a good value based on your total system memory. Previously,
      the default was always 8 GB. You can still override the default by
      setting MaxMemInQueues yourself. Resolves ticket 11396.
  o Minor features (usability):

      IP address. Resolves ticket 2454.
    - Warn less verbosely when receiving a misformed ESTABLISH_RENDEZVOUS
      cell. Fixes ticket 11279.
    - When we run out of usable circuit IDs on a channel, log only one
      warning for the whole channel, and include a description of
      how many circuits there were on the channel. Fix for part of ticket
      #11553.
  o Minor features (controller):
    - Make the entire exit policy available from the control port via
      GETINFO exit-policy/*. Implements enhancement #7952. Patch from
      "rl1987".
    - Because of the fix for ticket 11396, the real limit for memory
      usage may no longer match the configured MaxMemInQueues value.
      The real limit is now exposed via GETINFO limits/max-mem-in-queues.
  o Minor features (misc):
    - Always check return values for unlink, munmap, UnmapViewOfFile;
