Rename CircPriorityHalflifeMsec to CircuitPriorityHalflifeMsec

Everything that accepted the 'Circ' name handled it wrong, so even now
that we fixed the handling of the parameter, we wouldn't be able to
set it without making all the 0.2.2.7..0.2.2.10 relays act wonky.
This patch makes Tors accept the 'Circuit' name instead, so we can
turn on circuit priorities without confusing the versions that treated
the 'Circ' name as occasion to act weird.

- Fix a stupid parenthesization error that made every possible value
of CircPriorityHalflifeMsec get treated as "1 msec". Bugfix on
0.2.2.7-alpha.
- Rename CircPriorityHalflifeMsec to CircuitPriorityHalflifeMsec,
so authorities can tell newer relays about the option without
breaking older ones.
