The motivation of this change is to move away from tying signing to be
specifically for ed25519. The reason being that the protocol will want move
towards two different kinds of signing – the node signing artifacts, and an
author signing artifacts.
This change captures the former, node signing, by introducing a `Device` type
that is the `NodeId` – a PublicKey underneath the hood – and a signing
mechanism. This allows the replacement of the `Signer` trait being used – which
always assumed a `PublicKey`. Instead, the `Device` is constructed with
`NodeId`.
In `radicle-cob`, a signer is expected to implement
`signature::Signer<ExtendedSignature>`, and everywhere in `radicle`,
`radicle-node`, `radicle-cli`, and `radicle-remote-helper` is expected the
signer is expected to implement `signature::Signer<Signature>`.
A `Device` implements both of these but only requires
`signature::Signer<Signature>` to do so – since an `ExtendedSignature` is
essentially `(PublicKey, Signature)`, and the `NodeId` of the `Device` can be
used.
Instead of dropping the existing connection(s), we drop the same
connection on both sides, by using a simple rule that yields the same
result whether the node sees the connection as inbound or outbound.
The trick is to use something that both nodes agree on, for instance
whos public key is greater than the other, and use that information
to close the same connection on both sides.
Instead of re-loading the full inventory on `rad init`, we simply add
the new repository to the in-memory cache.
We also keep track of whether a fetch was a full clone, to know when
to update our routing table.
1. Simplify latency calculation to be more predictable, otherwise,
setting a latency is not super useful.
2. Turn a hard error into a log. It's not worth fixing it now though, as
it isn't a problem for the tests.
This is going to be useful for testing message amplification in the
network protocol.
We also reset the state of a few things everytime the simulator is run.
Wire up the `radicle-fetch` crate to the fetch logic in the
`radicle-node` worker.
Any required traits for storage, identity, tracking, and transport
used by `radicle-fetch`.
The worker adds a new module to run the `git upload-pack` process and
pipes the `stdout`/`stdin` to the respective channels.
The `Worker` type required adding a `FetchConfig` to easily allow the
configuration of fetches and passing the signer and tracking store
location through to the fetch `Handle`.
The channels code is adapted to have a new writer that always flushes
when a call to `write_all` is made. This is necessary since the
Gitoxide code never calls `flush`, and so it will hang since no data
is sent until `flush` is called.
Since `UserInfo` is used to set up a newly cloned repository, this
changed some of the SHA1 hashes output in the CLI test examples. It
was also necessary to update the CLI's clone code to be deterministic
in its output for tests.

When a fetch is user-requested, a timeout can be supplied that is passed
down to the worker.
When a fetch is service-requested, a default timeout is used.
Add `deny.toml` with a few exceptions, and update certain dependencies
to get rid of duplicates.
Running `cargo deny check` will yield some warnings still, but no
errors.
It turns out that the CRDT formed by the union of Git DAGs
is enough to guarantee everything we need for COBs.
This changes the following things:
* COB operations no longer need to be commutative
* COB histories are traversed in the same deterministic order on all
replicas
* It's now possible to implement RSMs on top of COBs, eg. scripting
* Lamport clocks have been removed
* `radicle-crdt` is no longer a dependency of `radicle`
* COBs are no longer instances of `Semilattice`
* The `Ops` type was removed in favor of having `Op` contain multiple
actions
When attempting to connect to a peer, and when succeeding, write the timestamp
to the database.
This will allow us to better select addresses and not retry peers to
soon.
Instead of returning the namespaces that we fetched with,
we return the remotes that were actually fetched from.
This can differ if some trusted peers were not available
on the remote node.
Previously, if that was the case, it would cause errors
since the remotes were looked up and that lookup failed.
With this change, we not only verify the signed refs before
the repository "transfer", but also validate that all refs in the
repo are signed and there is no discrepancy with the signed refs
file.
To improve the reliability and flexibility of the protocol, we introduce
multiplexing over peer connections. This involves a new `Frame` type
that carries a stream-id and payload.
Three stream types are made available:
1. Control
2. Gossip
3. Git
This change brings the following improvements:
* Removed need to queue fetch requests
* Removed need to queue gossip messages
* Removed need for `Fetch` and `FetchOk` messages
* Service doesn't need to know about inbound fetches
* Removed one round-trip for fetch negotiation
* Removed special `done` git packet
* Removed session logic and state around Git/Fetch protocols
* Removed code around upgrading/downgrading transport
* Worker in responder mode is able to process any number of fetches
* Connections support any number of concurrent fetches
We had to introduce a few extra things however to make it all work:
* A `VarInt` type for variable-length integers, since we want the frames
to be lightweight.
* A custom "tunnel" implementation, since we couldn't use the existing
one anymore.
Overall the change removes more complexity than it adds, while improving
the protocol along the way.
The One variant caused many paint points for fetching logic, where it
was not necessary. It was only constructed in one place, which could
be replaced by using the variant that holds a set of keys.
Remove the Namespaces::One variant and rename Namespaces::Many to
Namespaces::Trusted.

When a repository does not yet exist during a fetch, i.e. a clone,
then only delegates are being fetched.
Augment Namespaces::Many to hold the trusted and optional delegate peers
separately. Doing so allows the construction of the variant without
the repository existing, but tracking relationships existing.
This variant can then be used to build refspecs for both the trusted
peers and delegates when doing a cloning fetch.

First, we make sure to always attempt reconnection to persistent peers,
no matter the reason.
Second, we don't re-attempt connections when an inbound peer
disconnects. This minimizes the chance of connections crossing.
Third, we clean up `session::Error`, and don't use it to signal a
missing session, since it doesn't really belong there.
The fetch implementation will potentially fetch the local operator's
remote, which is unnecessary and could result in deleted data.
Fix this by threading the local operator's public key and add an
ignore refspec to the fetch arguments, i.e.
^refs/namespaces/<local>/*
The implementation also strictly fetches all or one namespace. This is
improved upon by introducing a new variant for specifying a set of
namespaces.

A fetch is a client-server interaction and so there are two sides to
this interaction. These sides are generally referred to as receive --
the client side -- and upload -- the server side.
The `Fetch` type indicated whether it was doing a receive or upload by
using a field `initiated: bool`. However, this can be confusing when
you pair it with the `namespaces: Namespaces` field, since only the
receive side should be sending what refspecs it wants and the upload
side responds with those matching refspecs.
A better way to represent this is using an enum for which direction
the fetch is being considered, where the receive side contains the
Namespaces. To borrow from Noise, the variant names are 'Initiator'
for the client and 'Responder' for the server.
The resulting code then makes decisions based on what variant of the
enum was passed.

* Read git request line before starting daemon, so that we don't leave
git data in the socket read buffer in case of an error connecting to
the daemon.
* Send a response on the fetch channel even if we disconnect the remote.
* Don't send `done` packet if there's an error; it won't be expected.

This is a large change that introduces transport encryption via
a Noise_XK handshake. The inner `Service` now works directly
with `NodeId` and doesn't need to interact with socket addresses.
The transport logic takes place in `wire::transport`, and the
established sessions are passed down to `Service`.
Note that the i/o implementation in the `poll-reactor` crate still
needs testing, and there is still work to be done to integrate the
Git transport as part of this architecture.

This type that was wrapping `Message` isn't very useful here.
If we decide that we do need something like that, it's best handled one
layer below.
