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.
