Description
If you run ten relays on a single IP address (like is happening right now -- see also #8145), the directory authorities will only pick two of them for the consensus.
Problem is, the authority will track uptime for all ten of them, which influences whether they get the Guard, Stable, or HSDir flag when they come back into the consensus.
We should mark a Sybil as a 'downtime' event when we decide it doesn't deserve the Running flag.

I don't think that's right; it should happen right after making the sybil list, not while building our vote. Also, it should count as a little different than being down -- it should count as being very, very down.
I have an alternative patch as 4eff8b65305248b1e7a57d1efdf8f55039719bd7 in my "bug8146_etc" branch. Please review?
