tor: add inital tor controller implementation In this commit, we add our inital implementation of a Tor Controller. This commit includes the ability for the controller to automatically signal the Tor daemon to create a v2 onion service. This will be expanded later on to support creating v3 onion services. Before allowing the controller to interact with the Tor daemon, the connection must be authenticated first. This commit includes support for the SAFECOOKIE authentication method as a sane default.
