bwauths need to explicitly request full consensuses when using tor 0.3.0 and later
Tor 0.3.0 merged legacy/trac#6769, which makes all tors use microdescriptors by default. A side effect of this change was that FetchUselsssDescriptors 1 used to imply UseMicrodescriptors 0. Now it doesn't any more. So bandwidth authorities need to set UseMicrodescriptors 0 in their torrcs, when using tor client versions 0.3.0 and later. (Bandwidth authorities which use relays will continue to download full consensuses.)
