Remove long-obsolete members from the state file.

Nick Mathewson requested to merge nickm/tor:statefile_cleanup into master

Tor has a feature to preserve unrecognized state file entries in order to maintain forward compatibility. But this feature, along with some unused code that we never actually removed, led to us keeping items that were of no use to the user, other than at worst to preserve ancient information about them.

This commit adds a feature to remove obsolete entries when we load the file.

Closes ticket 40137.
