At a high level, this is what I've done and why:
- I'm moving the protobuf generation for the `protocol`, `discovery` and
`db` packages to the modern alternatives, and using `buf` to generate
because it's nice and simple.
- After trying various approaches on how to integrate the new types with
the existing code, I opted for splitting off our own data model types
from the on-the-wire generated types. This means we can have a
`FileInfo` type with nicer ergonomics and lots of methods, while the
protobuf generated type stays clean and close to the wire protocol. It
does mean copying between the two when required, which certainly adds a
small amount of inefficiency. If we want to walk this back in the future
and use the raw generated type throughout, that's possible, this however
makes the refactor smaller (!) as it doesn't change everything about the
type for everyone at the same time.
- I have simply removed in cold blood a significant number of old
database migrations. These depended on previous generations of generated
messages of various kinds and were annoying to support in the new
fashion. The oldest supported database version now is the one from
Syncthing 1.9.0 from Sep 7, 2020.
- I changed config structs to be regular manually defined structs.
For the sake of discussion, some things I tried that turned out not to
work...
### Embedding / wrapping
Embedding the protobuf generated structs in our existing types as a data
container and keeping our methods and stuff:
```
package protocol
type FileInfo struct {
*generated.FileInfo
}
```
This generates a lot of problems because the internal shape of the
generated struct is quite different (different names, different types,
more pointers), because initializing it doesn't work like you'd expect
(i.e., you end up with an embedded nil pointer and a panic), and because
the types of child types don't get wrapped. That is, even if we also
have a similar wrapper around a `Vector`, that's not the type you get
when accessing `someFileInfo.Version`, you get the `*generated.Vector`
that doesn't have methods, etc.
### Aliasing
```
package protocol
type FileInfo = generated.FileInfo
```
Doesn't help because you can't attach methods to it, plus all the above.
### Generating the types into the target package like we do now and
attaching methods
This fails because of the different shape of the generated type (as in
the embedding case above) plus the generated struct already has a bunch
of methods that we can't necessarily override properly (like `String()`
and a bunch of getters).
### Methods to functions
I considered just moving all the methods we attach to functions in a
specific package, so that for example
```
package protocol
func (f FileInfo) Equal(other FileInfo) bool
```
would become
```
package fileinfos
func Equal(a, b *generated.FileInfo) bool
```
and this would mostly work, but becomes quite verbose and cumbersome,
and somewhat limits discoverability (you can't see what methods are
available on the type in auto completions, etc). In the end I did this
in some cases, like in the database layer where a lot of things like
`func (fv *FileVersion) IsEmpty() bool` becomes `func fvIsEmpty(fv
*generated.FileVersion)` because they were anyway just internal methods.
Fixes#8247
Move infrastructure related commands to under `cmd/infra` and
development stuff to `cmd/dev`. The default build command builds the
regular user facing binaries: syncthing, stdiscosrv, and strelaysrv.
This is to add the generation of `compat.json` as a release artifact. It
describes the runtime requirements of the release in question. The next
step is to have the upgrade server use this information to filter
releases provided to clients. This is per the discussion in #9656

Go is not cgroup aware and by default will set GOMAXPROCS to the number
of available threads, regardless of whether it is within the allocated
quota. This behaviour causes high amount of CPU throttling and degraded
application performance.
This is sort of a proof of concept, but since our current Windows
builder is down this might solve the problem. It includes a change for
easier code signing (taking the certificate in a secret/env var rather
than existing already on disk), but otherwise mirrors precisely what we
already do in the build server.
all: Add package runtimeos for runtime.GOOS comparisons
I grew tired of hand written string comparisons. This adds generated
constants for the GOOS values, and predefined Is$OS constants that can
be iffed on. In a couple of places I rewrote trivial switch:es to if:s,
and added Illumos where we checked for Solaris (because they are
effectively the same, and if we're going to target one of them that
would be Illumos...).
When GOBIN is set, 'go install' cannot install cross-compilied binaries.
To satisfy cross-compilation, it's necessary to add the '-o' to build
target, otherwise 'go build' will discarding the resulting objects when
compiling multiple packages.

Quoting the manual:
-trimpath
remove all file system paths from the resulting executable.
Instead of absolute file system paths, the recorded file names
will begin with either "go" (for the standard library),
or a module path@version (when using modules),
or a plain import path (when using GOPATH).
That is, when we panic, instead of:
goroutine 1 [running]:
main.main()
/Users/jb/dev/syncthing/syncthing/cmd/syncthing/main.go:272 +0x116
we get:
goroutine 1 [running]:
main.main()
github.com/syncthing/syncthing@/cmd/syncthing/main.go:272 +0x116
(Module path and file path within module.)
Apparently our Tags field depended on having specific files react to
tags and add themselves there. This, instead, works for all tags.
Also, pass tags to the test command line.
Currently a random dev version has a version string like this:
v1.7.0-rc.1+23-gef3441bd6
That is, the tag name followed by a plus sign and the git describe
metadata (number of commits and hash) plus -dirty or -branchname in some
cases.
We introduced the plus sign in #473, where a dev version would
previously be called v0.9.0-42-gwhatever which is considered older than
v0.9.0 and hence caused a downgrade. The problem with the plus is that
per semver everything after the plus is ignored as build metadata, which
means we won't upgrade from v1.7.0-rc.1 to v1.7.0-rc.1+22-g946170f3f.
With this change the we instead either just add a dev suffix (if we're
already on a prerelease version) or we wind the patch version and add a
dev suffix.
v1.7.0-rc.1+23-gef3441bd6 => v1.7.0-rc.1.dev.23.gef3441bd6
v1.6.1+80-gef3441bd6 => v1.6.2-dev.80.gef3441bd6
This should preserve the ordering and keep versions semver-ish.
