After this change,
- Symlinks on Windows are always unsupported. Sorry.
- Symlinks are always enabled on other platforms. They are just a small
file like anything else. There is no need to special case them. If you
don't want to sync some symlinks, ignore them.
- The protocol doesn't differentiate between different "types" of
symlinks. If that distinction ever does become relevant the individual
devices can figure it out by looking at the destination when they
create the link.
It's backwards compatible in that all the old symlink types are still
understood to be symlinks, and the new SYMLINK type is equivalent to the
old SYMLINK_UNKNOWN which was always a valid way to do it.

Furthermore:
1. Cleans configs received, migrates them as we receive them.
2. Clears indexes of devices we no longer share the folder with

This contains the following behavioral changes:
- Duplicate folder IDs is now fatal during startup
- Invalid folder flags in the ClusterConfig is fatal for the connection
(this will go away soon with the proto changes, as we won't have any
unknown flags any more then)
- Empty path is a folder error reported at runtime

1. Removes separate relay lists and relay clients/services, just makes it a listen address
2. Easier plugging-in of other transports
3. Allows "hot" disabling and enabling NAT services
4. Allows "hot" listen address changes
5. Changes listen address list with a preferable "default" value just like for discovery
6. Debounces global discovery announcements as external addresses change (which it might alot upon starting)
7. Stops this whole "pick other peers relay by latency". This information is no longer available,
but I don't think it matters as most of the time other peer only has one relay.
8. Rename ListenAddress to ListenAddresses, as well as in javascript land.
9. Stop serializing deprecated values to JSON

We're going to need the db.Instance to keep some state, and for that to
work we need the same one passed around everywhere. Hence this moves the
leveldb-specific file opening stuff into the db package and exports the
dbInstance type.
Just incase we want to show some stats in the future, such as a Geo-IP based map of where relays are, their dot size being proportional to global rate limits,
together with potentially how much data in total has been transferred, and how many sessions there by crawling relay status pages etc ;)
