Ensure that remote branches can be delete via the `-d` flag. This
includes the fact that one can delete the `refs/heads/patches`
branches, as long as they are owned by the current operator.
Add a fetch refspec to fetch tags from a Radicle remote. The
`--no-tag` option is also included. This is to ensure that it is easy
to collaborate by having tags placed in the remote namespace of
another peer. However, if the namespace is the default `rad` remote,
then tags are expected to be allowed -- this is to pave way for the
feature of canonical tags.
In the tests, the `--tags` option is removed -- and is generally
recommended that it is not used. This is to ensure that it does not
override the `--no-tag` option.
The rules for checking the quorum of the remote helper, when pushing to the
canonical branch, can prevent the operator from even attempting to try converge
to a state of agreeance.
Instead, the checking of the quorum rules are relaxed. It is still the case that
if the peer is pushing a diverging commit while in a working state they are
warned and the push does not go through. However, there are two cases where it
is fine to force push a change:
1. When pushing a new tip, as a delegate, there is still a canonical tip and the
new tip still converges with the history, i.e. it is equal to, behind, or
ahead of another delegate tip.
2. If there is no quorum in the current state, for example there were multiple
concurrent pushes, then the peer is free to continue to push to their default
branch in attempt to converge with the other peers.
The example tests ensure that these cases are covered, while also preserving the
old behaviour.

If a delegate is in a diverged state from the canonical head, ensure
that they can easily reset to another delegate's head to converge
again.

If an ancestry check of an annotated tag was triggered then the fetch
from that peer would fail. This is due to `graph_ahead_behind` only
working for commit-ish objects.
To allow for annotated tags, and other object that peel to commits,
the check now peels the two objects to commits before getting their
`Oid`s. The call to `graph_ahead_behind` can take these two `Oid`s
instead.
A test for annotated tags is included as part of the `examples/git`
suite in the CLI tests.

By default, this command now:
* Follows the peer if not already followed
* Syncs refs of the peer, if it wasn't followed before
* Fetches refs into working copy
This functionality can be disabled via `--no-sync` and `--no-fetch`.
It's actually not such a great idea to sync on git-fetch and
git-ls-remote, as syncing is supposed to happen in the background
already, and if you want to force a sync, you can just call `rad sync`.
Previously, it would be annoying that when you called `rad sync` and
then `git fetch`, it would still attempt another sync, for example.
Moving forwards, it might make sense to call `git-fetch` on `rad sync`
(so the other way around), because `git-fetch` is free (it doesn't talk
to peers), and you almost always want your working copy up to date with
your storage.
The fetch V2 improvements introduced a `UserInfo` type that is used to
set the Git config's name and email when cloning a repository. This
`UserInfo` can also be used when creating a new `Repository`.
The `Storage` type now takes a `UserInfo` so that it can be passed to
`Repository::create`, for creating a new repository.
For testing, this requires adding a new `fixtures::user` so that
testing `Storage` instances can be easily constructed.
It also means that the `radicle-cli` tests all changed with new SHAs
since the name and email are used as part of the hashing input.
N.b. the order of the timelines while testing the identity cob
changed. It's not clear why that is.

This makes the divergence check on push slightly more lenient, by
allowing rolling back to a previous commit in the canonical branch
history.
Without this, it can become impossible to roll-back commits in certain
situations.
Introduces a new COB type to store repository identity documents.
The reason for this change is to:
1. Simplify the code, as the identity document logic resembled a COB,
yet it had custom logic. This allows existing COB code to be used for
identities.
2. Make identity document update logic more flexible, since COB actions
can be added in the future.
3. Re-purpose existing tools around COBs to work on identities, eg. `rad
cob`.
4. Unify the concept of an identity change proposal, with regular identity
changes. This means we can remove the `id.proposal` COB in favor of
using the `id` COB itself.
Notes
-----
* Each repository has one Identity COB.
* The `Proposal` COB has been repurposed into the `Identity` COB.
* Identity documents are stored as *embeds* inside the Identity COB
actions.
* The action that contains new document versions is called `revision`,
just like the Patches COB.
* The namespaced `rad/id` ref is a symbolic reference to that Identity
COB.
* The canonical `rad/id` ref is a direct reference to the commit in the
Identity COB that contains the latest *accepted* revision of the
document.
* All commands for managing identities have been folded into `rad id`.
Hence `rad delegate` and `rad edit` are removed.
* The concept of "rebasing" an identity document is gone.
* The `rad id` output has been updated to match the style of other
commands.
* When a revision has enough signatures, it is automatically adopted as
the current identity, there is no longer the need for a "commit"
action.
* When an identity revision is proposed, and the current identity has a
threshold of `1`, that identity is automatically accepted due to the
above point.
* The idea of "verifying a peer's identity branch" no longer applies, as
COBs cannot be verified one history at a time.
* Since the root commit of the Identity COB does not have a "Resource"
to point to (it would have to point to itself, which is impossible),
we've made the resource id optional for COBs.
Changes the behavior of `git fetch` by running a radicle network-level
fetch (ie. `rad sync --fetch`) before fetching refs from storage. This
avoids having to run `rad sync` before `git fetch`; and tries to make
sure that refs are always fresh.
As a delegate, you shouldn't be able to delete your default branch.
This would most likely happen by mistake, and it prevents the canonical
head from being calculated correctly.
On push, we check whether the resulting state would cause a
divergence/fork in the canonical head, and if so, prevent the push from
happening.
This is to avoid situations where delegates have to then rollback their
heads.
Note that this doesn't prevent forks from happening altogether, as they
could happen asychronously, but it mitigates the problem.
This is a fairly substantial change, which adds a new configuration file
to the user's `$RAD_HOME` that includes node configuration, including
the alias, and also makes node aliases required.
When running `rad auth`, the user is now prompted for an alias, which
defaults to `$USER`.
When running `rad self`, the alias is now shown.
If the user runs radicle without a config file, the defaults are loaded,
and `$USER` is used as the alias.
This adds the ability to the git-remote-helper to open and update
patches via a `git push` to the magic ref `refs/patches` and
`refs/heads/patches/<patch-id>`.
The main change is that we had to move away from offering the `connect`
capability in the remote helper, to offering `push` and `fetch`
individually.
To get a feel for how this works, see the `rad-patch-via-push.md`
example.
