Emit CIRC_BW event early for dropped cells

While reviewing the dropmark paper (https://petsymposium.org/2018/files/papers/issue2/popets-2018-0011.pdf) and asking the authors to test it against vanguards's dropped cell detection, I realized that since we only normally emit CIRC_BW events once per second, the attack may still have enough time succeed against vanguards.

The fix is to emit the CIRC_BW event as soon as we get a relay cell that does not cause us to update our delivered or overhead byte counts. It's pretty simply to do this. Patch incoming.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
