### Purpose
Treat X-Forwarded-For as a comma-separated string to prevent nil IP being returned by the Discovery Server
### Testing
Unit Tests implemented
Testing with a Discovery Client can be done as follows:
```
A simple example to replicate this entails running Discovery with HTTP, use Nginx as a reverse proxy and hardcode (as an example) a list of IPs in the X-Forwarded-For header.
1. Send an Announcement with tcp://0.0.0.0:<some-port>
2. Query the DeviceID
3. Observe the returned IP Address is no longer nil; i.e. `tcp://<nil>:<some-port>`
```
This adds the ability to have multiple concurrent connections to a single device. This is primarily useful when the network has multiple physical links for aggregated bandwidth. A single connection will never see a higher rate than a single link can give, but multiple connections are load-balanced over multiple links.
It is also incidentally useful for older multi-core CPUs, where bandwidth could be limited by the TLS performance of a single CPU core -- using multiple connections achieves concurrency in the required crypto calculations...

The problem was that a statistics/cleanup run is triggered when the
database started and runs concurrently with the test. That cleanup run
removes old entries without valid addresses, and one of the test objects
matched this. The test object would thus randomly be removed in the
middle of the test, causing a failure. This fixes it so the object looks
recent when the cleaner-upper looks, and also uses a RAM database
(faster).
The intention was that if no peers are given, we shouldn't start the
listener. We did that anyway, because:
- splitting an empty string on comma returns a slice with one empty
string in it
- parsing the empty string as a device ID returns the empty device ID
so we end up with a valid replication peer which is the empty device ID.
This changes the build script to build all the things in one go
invocation, instead of one invocation per cmd. This is a lot faster
because it means more things get compiled concurrently. It's especially
a lot faster when things *don't* need to be rebuilt, possibly because it
only needs to build the dependency map and such once instead of once per
binary.
In order for this to work we need to be able to pass the same ldflags to
all the binaries. This means we can't set the program name with an
ldflag.
When it needs to rebuild everything (go clean -cache):
( ./old-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 65.82s user 11.28s system 574% cpu 13.409 total
( ./new-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 63.26s user 7.12s system 1220% cpu 5.766 total
On a subsequent run (nothing to build, just link the binaries):
( ./old-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 26.58s user 7.53s system 582% cpu 5.853 total
( ./new-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 18.66s user 2.45s system 1090% cpu 1.935 total
This makes sure addresses are sorted when coming in from the API. The
database merge operation still checks for correct ordering (which is
quick) and sorts if it isn't correct (legacy database record or
replication peer), but then does a copy first.
Tested with -race in production...
This adds a certificate lifetime parameter to our certificate generation
and hard codes it to twenty years in some uninteresting places. In the
main binary there are a couple of constants but it results in twenty
years for the device certificate and 820 days for the HTTPS one. 820 is
less than the 825 maximum Apple allows nowadays.
This also means we must be prepared for certificates to expire, so I add
some handling for that and generate a new certificate when needed. For
self signed certificates we regenerate a month ahead of time. For other
certificates we leave well enough alone.
The relay and discosrv didn't use the new lib/build package, now they
do. Conversely the lib/build package wasn't aware there might be other
users and hard coded the program name - now it's set by the build
script
This is the result of:
- Changing build.go to take the protobuf version from the modules
instead of hardcoded
- `go get github.com/gogo/protobuf@v1.3.0` to upgrade
- `go run build.go proto` to regenerate our code
* go mod init; rm -rf vendor
* tweak proto files and generation
* go mod vendor
* clean up build.go
* protobuf literals in tests
* downgrade gogo/protobuf
This changes the TLS and certificate handling in a few ways:
- We always use TLS 1.2, both for sync connections (as previously) and
the GUI/REST/discovery stuff. This is a tightening of the requirements
on the GUI. AS far as I can tell from caniusethis.com every browser from
2013 and forward supports TLS 1.2, so I think we should be fine.
- We always greate ECDSA certificates. Previously we'd create
ECDSA-with-RSA certificates for sync connections and pure RSA
certificates for the web stuff. The new default is more modern and the
same everywhere. These certificates are OK in TLS 1.2.
- We use the Go CPU detection stuff to choose the cipher suites to use,
indirectly. The TLS package uses CPU capabilities probing to select
either AES-GCM (fast if we have AES-NI) or ChaCha20 (faster if we
don't). These CPU detection things aren't exported though, so the tlsutil
package now does a quick TLS handshake with itself as part of init().
If the chosen cipher suite was AES-GCM we prioritize that, otherwise we
prefer ChaCha20. Some might call this ugly. I think it's awesome.
