Add module to verify a relay's exit policy about exitmap HOT 1 CLOSED

I was looking through this enhancement and was wondering whether it would be possible through a hidden service. To elaborate, we could have a dedicated hidden service that has all its port open and through multiple open connections to this HS, we could determine whether an exit node abides by its exit policy or not. We could also use certain trusted exit nodes in our scans to compare results. I have not read about the hidden service protocol in detail, but if the introduction points stay the same for the duration of one scan, we could have some results.

Sorry for the previous comment, I realised the flaw in this would be that between the client circuit, Rendezvous point and the Introduction points, traffic would flow through the OR Port and not the ExitPolicy enabled ports.

Another possible idea that I can think of is to use a large scale collection of globally distributed nodes like PlanetLab, where all of them could have their ports open to overcome the barrier of whitelisting a few IP addresses.
