Alex Vandiver 49ad188449 rate_limit: Add a flag to lump all TOR exit node IPs together.
TOR users are legitimate users of the system; however, that system can
also be used for abuse -- specifically, by evading IP-based
rate-limiting.

For the purposes of IP-based rate-limiting, add a
RATE_LIMIT_TOR_TOGETHER flag, defaulting to false, which lumps all
requests from TOR exit nodes into the same bucket.  This may allow a
TOR user to deny other TOR users access to the find-my-account and
new-realm endpoints, but this is a low cost for cutting off a
significant potential abuse vector.

If enabled, the list of TOR exit nodes is fetched from their public
endpoint once per hour, via a cron job, and cached on disk.  Django
processes load this data from disk, and cache it in memcached.
Requests are spared from the burden of checking disk on failure via a
circuitbreaker, which trips of there are two failures in a row, and
only begins trying again after 10 minutes.
