obfs4 documentation does not mention the need for a hardware clock set to UTC

It feels a bit weird that to learn about one of the most common issue with bridges, a user has to figure out that it’s documented on “known issues” but not on the page about bridges.
I’m wondering if https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/startup_options/bridge_mode/ should link to https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/#utc.

Current plans:

  • Create a new troubleshooting section in /doc/first_steps/welcome_screen/bridge_mode
  • Move most of /support/known_issues#utc to /doc/first_steps/welcome_screen/bridge_mode to this new troubleshooting section
  • Instruct to try with another bridge (the 1 you tried first may be broken)
  • Add a class="bug" note below obfs4 in How to use bridges in Tails
