 * \file predict_ports.c
 * \brief Remember what ports we've needed so we can have circuits ready.
 *
 * Predicted ports are used by clients to remember how long it's been
 * since they opened an exit connection to each given target
 * port. Clients use this information in order to try to keep circuits
 * open to exit nodes that can connect to the ports that they care
 * about.  (The predicted ports mechanism also handles predicted circuit
 * usage that _isn't_ port-specific, such as resolves, internal circuits,
 * and so on.)
