Implement this function on `RemoteRepository`, and move `repositories`
to the trait level.
This function will be used to quickly get the `RefsAt` of all repository
remotes.
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.
For large seeds with many repos, it's expensive to traverse the
inventory everytime the node connects to a new peer, for example.
To improve the situation, we cache the inventory per `Storage` instance,
and add a `refresh` method to refresh the inventory.
This method is called when the node is told to synchronize its
inventory.
Ensure that MockRepository can be used where the COB storage traits
are required. Currently, the implementations of the methods themselves
are not required -- they are left as `todo!()`.

Dequeued fetches were always fetching all refs, instead of fetching the
specific refs that were initially requested. We fix that by storing the
refs to fetch in the fetch queue.
The `remove` method is no longer being used, with `clean` taking its
place.

Currently, if refs are updated while the node is stopped, these refs are
not immediately announced when the node starts, due to the node being
unaware of the updates.
To remedy this, on startup, we compare the refs we have in storage with
the refs we announced to the network. Since only our own refs could have
changed while the node was stopped, this change only applies to owned
refs. If we detect that storage has changed while the node was stopped,
we create ref announcements for the updated repos and store them in our
gossip database. These announcements will be included with other
historical gossip announcements when nodes connect to us.
To keep track of what was announced, we store our local node's sync
status in the database. This is also useful when using the `rad sync status`
command, as it tells us what oid our local node is at, and whether it
is aware of our local changes yet.
In addition to this, we make a small fix: previously, inventory and ref
announcements originating from our local node were not stored in the
announcement database. We ensure that they are via the new `announce`
method.
It can be useful to be able to check if a repository contains a given
commit. Add a `contains` method to the `ReadRepository` trait to
handle this.

The RefsAnnouncement previous announced its complete set of
`rad/sigrefs`. This was useful in that verification can occur on the
receiveing side immediately by verifying the refs and proceeding with
the fetch -- note that it did nothing with the ref information it
received.
This can be minimised to only advertising the namespace, i.e. the
NID, and the new SHA of the `rad/sigrefs`. This is represented by a
new message type, `RefsAt`, which contains the NID and the Oid.
For checking if an announcement is stale or fresh, the receiving
side can check the existence of the SHA in its Git repository.
The tests are appropriately modified to use NIDs and Oids.
To prepare for a follow-up change, the announcement data is also
threaded through for the fetch protocol to focus fetching only the
advertised set of Oids.
N.B.: because the refs aren't communicated, the verification happens
when fetching since the data needs to be fetched before
verifying. This is a trade-off with minimising the message payload for
verifying earlier.

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.

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.
This change allows for files (blobs) to be embedded into COB entries.
This allows for things like image attachments in issue comments for example.
For now, we only enable this in the `issue` COB.
The way it works is that relevant COB actions carry metadata about which
files are attached to them; and we store those files as blobs inside the
COB entry's *tree* object, under an `embeds/` folder.
The `Embed<T>` type is used for the above, and either carries actual
content, or carries a content-id. Retrieving the actual content is as
simple as asking the repository for a blob with that content-id.
As a possible future extension, MIME types could be stored alongside the
files in a "metadata" file. This could help clients display the content
appropriately.
This new trait is used when only signing refs is needed, and not general
write access to a repository.
We also implement `ReadRepository` and `SignRepository` for
`DraftStore`.
When applying a `Merge` action, we verify that the commit is in the
history of the default branch of that user.
Since this is not the case when issuing a `rad merge`, and since that
command is no longer needed with the push-based merge, we remove the
`rad merge` command completely.
Move `merges` from `Revision` to `Patch`, and key them by actor.
This ensures that only one merge is possible per actor. We also make
sure that only one revision can be merged at a time, and signal a
conflict if more than one revision is considered merged.
Finally, we make sure that merges have the same target-branch commit
to be considered equal.
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.
This change updates to the latest radicle-git-ext, which required a
few changes within the radicle family of crates.
One set of changes is that the radicle-git-ext crate subsumes
git-commit, git-trailers, and git-ref-format -- so all those imports
go through radicle-git-ext.
The commit code requires that parent `Oid`s point to commits, which
made some tests fail. One of the reasons for these failures is that
the patch tests used fabricated `Oid`s and so the verification would
fail. This is fixed by allowing the test context code to create
`PatchRequest`s that create valid commits.
The other reason for failure was that the identity `Action` passed an
`Oid` that pointed to a blob. This is fixed by removing that code and
making a note of it in documentation.
The final major change was moving the Refspec type into git-ref-format
and removing the AsRefspecs trait. The trait was not required and
could its usage could be replaced by simpler code.

It wasn't being set correctly, and it's not the place for it,
so we remove it and set it in `httpd`.
Note that `Remote` is now simply a wrapper around `SignedRefs`.
If we want to remove the type or turn it into an alias, it will
require touching lots of different parts of the codebase. I opted
not to do that here as it's lower priority.
We were allowing remotes to be constructed via a function that didn't
check its inputs.
This is now fixed by moving the public key into the `SignedRefs` struct.
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.
When a merge is applied to a patch, we check whether the threshold
of delegates has been reached, at which point we set the patch status
to `merged`.
This requires threading the identity document oid through the "apply"
process.
Introduce a canonical reference for refs/rad/id to aid in discovering
information about a repository without knowing a peer -- e.g. if a
peer wants to clone a new repository it needs to find out which peers
are delegates for that project, but does not know what their NIDs are
up front.
The approach mirrors the canonical `head` for a repository and
introduces useful constructors for `Doc`/`DocAt`.

It's not a good idea to have fallible operations run after `FetchOk`
is received, since there's no easy way to communicate the error
to the remote at that point. What would then happen is that the fetch
just "hangs", since nothing is there to cancel it.
Hence, we compute namespaces earlier in the process, and store the
namespaces in the session. If there is a failure, the fetch is
never initiated.
The MockStorage holds an inventory of repositories and their
identities but when asking for a MockRepository, none of this
information is transferred.
Add `id` and `doc` fields to MockRepository for defining some of its
functionality.
In addition, add a generator for a nonempty MockStorage to use in
tests that will expect the storage to be populated.

Before this change, the identity document would be loaded for the
COB signer. This meant that a fork would be needed for that signer.
After this change, it's no longer necessary, since the identity doc
head is computed from available remotes.
While making those changes, it was also apparent that some of the
identity-related functions had bad names and error types, this
was fixed as well.
The new hierarchy should be much more correct, and cleaner:
* `identity` (`Identity`)
* `identity::did` (`Did`)
* `identity::doc` (`Doc`, `Payload`)
* `identity::doc::id` (`Id`)
* `identity::project` (`Project`)

The changes in this commit are all intertwined and it was hard to
split them into smaller commits:
* Use custom transports everywhere
Instead of `file://` and instead of using a child process for fetching
and pushing; we go through our custom transports, which use the `rad://`
and `heartwood://` schemes.
* Introduce a 'mock' remote transport
To test the remote transport without needing to spawn TCP streams,
we add a mock transport that works between storages on the file
system.
* Get rid of node's `git-url`
Instead of git urls, nodes simply use their node-ids to replicate.
Since the `HEAD` reference is trusted (we set it locally), use that
when possible, instead of re-computing it.
