Add bridge search support #8

Currently Tor Status only supports searches for relays. It should also support searching bridges.

See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/5368 for an issue with Onionoo that should be solved before adding bridge search support.

The aforementioned issue with Onionoo is now solved.

In short, Atlas should always run 40-character fingerprints through SHA1. That is, convert hex to binary, apply SHA1, convert back to hex. This works for relays and for bridges. This is really important in order to protect bridge fingerprints on the wire.
