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
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`.
The tracking database can be opened in read-only or read-write
mode. Knowing which is being used is significant in concurrent
scenarios, e.g. it's safer to have a read-only handle on multiple
threads.
Provide static type information by signifying what kind of database
handle is being worked with, read or read-write.

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.
* Add `--home` flag
* Organize the information better

For the purposes of debugging running nodes, it's useful to know which
threads are doing what. This allows tools like `htop` to reveal which
threads are running.
We consolidate the setup done by `rad checkout`, `rad clone` and `rad
remote add`, so that they all check for node aliases, and are all
capable of setting up tracking branches etc.
Most of the test flakiness was caused by the git-daemon not being able
to bind to a port. It seems like using an RNG was not a good enough
solution.
After this change, tests seem to be passing without issue.
Previously, we only sent the announcement when there were external
addresses. But it contains other information like the node alias,
therefore we always send it.
Since the proof-of-work can be expensive to compute everytime, we add
the ability to load the local node announcement from the file system.
We also change the proof-of-work parameters so that they are relaxed
when running in debug mode, instead of when running tests.
Finally, we remove the boolean validation of the PoW. Instead, we store
the work per-node, in the database, to be used in the future in case of
DoS attacks or network congestion.
Previously, only one connection to the node control socket could be
handled at a time. This usually worked fine, but if one connection hangs
for whatever reason, no other process can access the node.
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.
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.
This command announces refs to peers and waits for them to be
in sync.
Adds a subscribe method to `Handle` so that we can get the events
from the seed to allow us to confirm that the configured seeds fetched
from us.
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.
It was possible to trigger multiple connection attempts to the same
peer, since we didn't track connection attempts that hadn't yet
returned to the service via `Service::attempted`.
With this change, we add an extra `Initial` state to sessions, so
that redundant connections are not attempted when one is already under
way.
To ensure the behaviour of ignoring references that are owned by the
local peer a test case is added.
The case has two peers: alice and bob, where alice creates a new
repository. bob fetches to be up-to-date with alice. alice, in turn,
creates an issue and fetches from bob -- which should be successful.
If the refspec:
^refs/namespaces/<alice>/*
was not in place, her fetch from bob would fail since the signed
references would not be a fast-forward.

To determine the correct Namespaces to use, the repo Policy and Scope
are consulted.
If the policy is Block then this is a failure state and is reported to
the other end.
Otherwise, if the policy is Track, then the scope is checked. For the
Trusted Scope then the Namespaces should consist of all tracked nodes
and delegates for the given repository. However, the repository might
not exist and so it is necessary for the whole repository to be
fetched.
For the All Scope, all Namespaces are fetched.

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.

The tracking configuration has no way of consulting for a configured
scope.
This change allows the storing of this scope inside the tracking
`Config` -- currently unused.
The default Scope is chosen as Trusted, so that nodes do not
implicitly track any other node. If this behaviour is desired -- for
example, for seed nodes -- then All should be chosen.

The `routes_to` function can loop infinitely during test.
To prevent this from happening a number of tries variable is added. It
checks that the number of tries does not exceed 30, which gives the
function about 3 seconds to complete -- due to the call to
`thread::sleep` using 100ms.

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.
