For a couple of years, Tor documentation has made
the term hidden service obsolete, in favor of onion
service.
This PR updates all the references in the code base.

following usermod
Starting bitcoind with `-onlynet=onion` immediately after adding bitcoind user to debian-tor group will yield the following notice on debug.log:
"tor: Authentication cookie /run/tor/control.authcookie could not be opened (check permissions)"
Elaborate on the need to re-login to ensure debian-tor group has been applied to bitcoind user after:
sudo usermod -a -G debian-tor username
Verification can be done via `groups` command in shell.

as per http://www.erisian.com.au/bitcoin-core-dev/log-2019-04-11.html#l-102.
Description adapted from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/init.cpp#L429.
Also fixes a typo in doc/dependencies.md.

The current documentation leads the reader to think `hash-password` is an other option.
This change is less confusing and make it clear how to use this option.

39d2911 [Docs] Add version footnote to tor.md (Damian Williamson)
Pull request description:
[Docs] Add version footnote to tor.md
Added note to section 2, part -edits to `/etc/tor/torrc`- indicating this is only required for Tor version 0.2.7.0 and older, since section 3 states it is valid for Tor version 0.2.7.1 and newer. Added ref link from section 2 version footnote to section 3. Re-styled headings to work on GitHub -alternate heading style markup creation issue with numbered headings and thus headings and automatic heading links are broken-

> This new feature is enabled by default if Bitcoin Core is listening, and a connection to Tor can be made. It can be configured with the -listenonion, -torcontrol and -torpassword settings. To show verbose debugging information, pass -debug=tor.
But it is correct to say that the feature is enabled *regardless* of whether a connection to Tor can be made.
I propose to clarify that so that users can eliminate these in their logs (when `listen=1` and no Tor).
And I think it's okay to clarify about the `listen` option, because on several occasions when I read this before I always assumed `listening` meant `server=1` which cost me a lot of time in troubleshooting.

Previous wording suggested that no additional setup was required for a
tor hidden service to be created.

Tor Browser Bundle spawns the Tor process and listens on port 9150, it doesn't randomly pick a port.

SOCKS4 support was removed in 0127a9b, as well as the `-socks=` option.

Rename -tor to -onion to better reflect what it does.

Seems like there are a lot of advertised testnet HS nodes that
don't actually work. Lack of the testnet port on the example
HS config might be one reason.

I've seen users confused multiple times thinking they
should be using -tor to set their tor proxy and then
finding in horror that they were still connecting to
the IPv4 internet.
Even Jeff guesses wrong about what the knob does, so
I think we should rename it. This leaves the old
knob working, we can pull it out completely in a
later release.
