This extends nusenu's basic idea of using the stem library to
dynamically exclude nodes that are likely to be bad by putting them
on the ExcludeNodes or ExcludeExitNodes setting of a running Tor.

The basic cut is to exclude Exit nodes that do not have a contact.
That can be extended to nodes that do not have an email in the contact etc.
But there's a problem, and your Tor notice.log will tell you about it:
you could exclude the nodes needed to access hidden services etc.
So we need to add to the process the concept of a whitelist.
In addition, we may have our own blacklist of nodes we want to exclude.
So we make two files that are structured in YAML:
```
/etc/tor/torrc-goodnodes.yaml
Nodes:
IntroductionPoints:
- $NODEFINGERPRINT
...
By default all sections of the goodnodes.yaml are used as a whitelist.
/etc/tor/torrc-badnodes.yaml
Nodes:
ExcludeExitNodes:
BadExit:
# $0000000000000000000000000000000000000007
```
That part requires [PyYAML](https://pyyaml.org/wiki/PyYAML)
https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml/
Right now only the ExcludeExitNodes section is used by we may add ExcludeNodes
later, and by default all sub-sections of the badnodes.yaml are used as a
ExcludeExitNodes but it can be customized with the lWanted commandline arg.
The original idea has also been extended to add different conditions for
exclusion: the ```--contact``` commandline arg is a comma sep list of conditions:
* Empty - no contact info
* NoEmail - no @ sign in the contact',
More may be added later.
Because you don't want to exclude the introduction points to any onion
you want to connect to, ```--white_onions``` should whitelist the
introduction points to a comma sep list of onions, but is
currently broken in stem 1.8.0: see:
* https://github.com/torproject/stem/issues/96
* https://gitlab.torproject.org/legacy/trac/-/issues/25417
```--bad_output``` will write the torrc configuration to a file.
```--details_output``` will write the lookup URLs of the excluded nodes to a file
For usage, do ```python3 exclude_badExits.py --help`
