    The obfs4 `iat-mode` parameter is now properly configurable.
    
    It used to be that all of the bridge side parameters needed to be
    manually specified together.  This was somewhat nonsensical, and the IAT
    mode can now be set as the only obfs4 option in a `ServerTransportOptions`
    torrc directive.
    
    Thanks to dcf for reporting the issue.
