Tor stream isolation randomizes proxy user credentials resulting in
Tor creating a new circuit for each connection. This makes it more
difficult to correlate connections.

Idea from Wladimir J. van der Laan via Bitcoin Core.

OnionProxyPass string `long:"onionpass" default-mask:"-" description:"Password for onion proxy server"`
NoOnion bool `long:"noonion" description:"Disable connecting to tor hidden services"`
TorIsolation bool `long:"torisolation" description:"Enable Tor stream isolation by randomizing user credentials for each connection."`

Code looks good and works properly. Would you please update Configuring Tor to call out why and how to use the new option as well?
