We have the invalid bit to indicate that a file isn't good. That's enough for remote devices. For ourselves, it would be good to know sometimes why the file isn't good - because it's an unsupported type, because it matches an ignore pattern, or because we detected the data is bad and we need to rescan it.
Or, and this is the main future reason for the PR, because it's a change detected on a receive only device. We will want something like the invalid flag for those changes, but marking them as invalid today means the scanner will rehash them. Hence something more fine grained is required.
This introduces a LocalFlags fields to the FileInfo where we can stash things that we care about locally. For example,
FlagLocalUnsupported = 1 << 0 // The kind is unsupported, e.g. symlinks on Windows
FlagLocalIgnored = 1 << 1 // Matches local ignore patterns
FlagLocalMustRescan = 1 << 2 // Doesn't match content on disk, must be rechecked fully
The LocalFlags fields isn't sent over the wire; instead the Invalid attribute is calculated based on the flags at index sending time. It's on the FileInfo anyway because that's what we serialize to database etc.
The actual Invalid flag should after this just be considered when building the global state and figuring out availability for remote devices. It is not used for local file index entries.
This keeps the data we need about sequence numbers and object counts
persistently in the database. The sizeTracker is expanded into a
metadataTracker than handled multiple folders, and the Counts struct is
made protobuf serializable. It gains a Sequence field to assist in
tracking that as well, and a collection of Counts become a CountsSet
(for serialization purposes).
The initial database scan is also a consistency check of the global
entries. This shouldn't strictly be necessary. Nonetheless I added a
created timestamp to the metadata and set a variable to compare against
that. When the time since the metadata creation is old enough, we drop
the metadata and rebuild from scratch like we used to, while also
consistency checking.
A new environment variable STCHECKDBEVERY can override this interval,
and for example be set to zero to force the check immediately.

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.

Also tweaks the proto definitions:
- [packed=false] on the block_indexes field to retain compat with
v0.14.16 and earlier.
- Uses the vendored protobuf package in include paths.
And, "build.go setup" will install the vendored protoc-gen-gogofast.
This should ensure that a proto rebuild isn't so dependent on whatever
version of the compiler and package the developer has installed...

The protobuf encoder now produces packed arrays for things like []int32,
which is actually correct according to the proto3 spec. However
Syncthing v0.14.16 and earlier doesn't support this. This reverts the
encoding change, but keeps the updated decoder so that we are both more
compatible with other proto3 implementations and can move to the updated
encoder in the future.

This makes the device ID a real type that can be used in the protobuf
schema. That avoids the juggling back and forth from []byte in a bunch
of places and simplifies the code.

This adds a new nanoseconds field to the FileInfo, populates it during
scans and sets the non-truncated time in Chtimes calls.
The actual file modification time is defined as modified_s seconds +
modified_ns nanoseconds. It's expected that the modified_ns field is <=
1e9 (that is, all whole seconds should go in the modified_s field) but
not really enforced. Given that it's an int32 the timestamp can be
adjusted += ~2.9 seconds by the modified_ns field...

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.
