A random "instance ID" is generated on each start of the local discovery
service. The instance ID is included in the announcement. When we see a
new instance ID we treat is a new device and respond with an
announcement of our own. Hence devices get to know each other quickly on
restart.

This changes the BEP protocol to use protocol buffer serialization
instead of XDR, and therefore also the database format. The local
discovery protocol is also updated to be protocol buffer format.

This is a supplement patch to commit a58f69b which only fixed global
discovery. This patch adds the missing parts for the local discovery.
If the listen address scheme is set to tcp4:// or tcp6:// and no
explicit host is specified, an address should not be considered if the
source address does not match this scheme.
This prevents invalid URIs like tcp4://<IPv6 address>:<port> or tcp6://<IPv4
address>:<port> for local discovery.

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

This implements a new debug/trace infrastructure based on a slightly
hacked up logger. Instead of the traditional "if debug { ... }" I've
rewritten the logger to have no-op Debugln and Debugf, unless debugging
has been enabled for a given "facility". The "facility" is just a
string, typically a package name.
This will be slightly slower than before; but not that much as it's
mostly a function call that returns immediately. For the cases where it
matters (the Debugln takes a hex.Dump() of something for example, and
it's not in a very occasional "if err != nil" branch) there is an
l.ShouldDebug(facility) that is fast enough to be used like the old "if
debug".
The point of all this is that we can now toggle debugging for the
various packages on and off at runtime. There's a new method
/rest/system/debug that can be POSTed a set of facilities to enable and
disable debug for, or GET from to get a list of facilities with
descriptions and their current debug status.
Similarly a /rest/system/log?since=... can grab the latest log entries,
up to 250 of them (hardcoded constant in main.go) plus the initial few.
Not implemented in this commit (but planned) is a simple debug GUI
available on /debug that shows the current log in an easily pasteable
format and has checkboxes to enable the various debug facilities.
The debug instructions to a user then becomes "visit this URL, check
these boxes, reproduce your problem, copy and paste the log". The actual
log viewer on the hypothetical /debug URL can poll regularly for new log
entries and this bypass the 250 line limit.
The existing STTRACE=foo variable is still obeyed and just sets the
start state of the system.
The XDR encoder doesn't understart slices of strings very well. It can
encode and decode them, but there's no way to set limits on the length
of the strings themselves (only on the length of the slice), and the
generated diagrams are incorrect. This trivially works around this,
while also documenting what the string actually is (a URL).
