As a review I did some searches for tor usage and there is still a lot of usage of the name tor. This is not an issue but what is not super clear to me is to what extend tor is deprecated or where we would like to use onion now.
suggestion NIT: add some clarity in the PR description that only the tor network specification is deprecated and not the usage of the name tor or code referring to tor (or something similar) to limit followup PR’s that see this as an invitation to remove the name Tor everywhere.

Right. Usage of “Tor” is fine, and doesn’t need to be removed. It’s just that Tor is a general overlay network with exis nodes, but this specific proxy is the one used for .onion addresses, so calling it onion is way less confusing.
