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 allowed IPv4 ranges are the same as before. But we now also accept IPv6 addresses in the ULA range FC00::/7. These addresses don't require an interface identifier and are roughly equivalent to the IPv4 private ranges.
Typical usecases:
VPN interface IPs: Wireguard, OpenVPN, Tailscale, ...
fixed IPv6 LAN addressing while the provider assigns a dynamic prefix. e.g used by pihole

refactor: fix unused method receiver
Methods with unused receivers can be a symptom of unfinished refactoring or a bug. To keep
the same method signature, omit the receiver name or '_' as it is unused.

refactor: unused parameter should be replaced by underscore
Unused parameters in functions or methods should be replaced with `_`
(underscore) or removed.

This makes the various protocol priorities configurable among the other
options. With this, it's possible to prefer QUIC over TCP for WAN
connections, for example. Both sides need to be similarly configured for
this to work properly.
The default priority order remains the same as previously (TCP, QUIC,
Relay, with LAN better than WAN).
To make this happen I made each dialer & listener more priority aware,
and moved the check for whether a connection is LAN or not into the
dialer / listener -- this is the new "lanChecker" type that's passed
around.
This adds a cache to the expensive key generation operations. It's fixes
size LRU/MRU stuff to keep memory usage bounded under absurd conditions.
Also closes#8600.
* lib/connections: Cache isLAN decision for later external access.
The check whether a remote device's address is on a local network
currently happens when handling the Hello message, to configure the
limiters. Save the result to the ConnectionInfo and pass it out as
part of the model's ConnectionInfo struct in ConnectionStats().
* gui: Use provided connection attribute to distinguish LAN / WAN.
Replace the dumb IP address check which didn't catch common cases and
actually could contradict what the backend decided. That could have
been confusing if the GUI says WAN, but the limiter is not actually
applied because the backend thinks it's a LAN.
Add strings for QUIC and relay connections to also differentiate
between LAN and WAN.
* gui: Redefine reception level icons for all connection types.
Move the mapping to the JS code, as it is much easier to handle
multiple switch cases by fall-through there.
QUIC is regarded no less than TCP anymore. LAN and WAN make the
difference between levels 4 / 3 and 2 / 1:
{TCP,QUIC} LAN --> {TCP,QUIC} WAN --> Relay LAN --> Relay WAN -->
Disconnected.
This replaces old style errors.Wrap with modern fmt.Errorf and removes
the (direct) dependency on github.com/pkg/errors. A couple of cases are
adjusted by hand as previously errors.Wrap(nil, ...) would return nil,
which is not what fmt.Errorf does.
Also adds idle time and keepalive parameters because how this is
configured has changed in the new package version. The values are those
that seems like might already be default, if keep-alives were enabled,
which is not obvious from the doc comments.
Also, Go 1.19 gofmt reformatting of comments.
The locking protocol in nat.Mapping was racy:
* Mapping.addressMap RLock'd, but then returned a map shared between
caller and Mapping, so the lock didn't do anything.
* Operations inside Service.{verifyExistingMappings,acquireNewMappings}
would lock the map for every update, but that means callers to
Mapping.ExternalAddresses can be looping over the map while the
Service methods are concurrently modifying it. When the Go runtime
detects that happening, it panics.
* Mapping.expires was read and updated without locking.
The Service methods now lock the map once and release the lock only when
done.
Also, subscribers no longer get the added and removed addresses, because
none of them were using the information. This was changed for a previous
attempt to retain the fine-grained locking and not reverted because it
simplifies the code.
LoadOrGenerateCertificate() takes two file path arguments, but then
uses the locations package to determine the actual path. Fix that
with a minimally invasive change, by using the arguments instead.
Factor out GenerateCertificate().
The only caller of this function is cmd/syncthing, which passes the
same values, so this is technically a no-op.
* lib/tlsutil: Make storing generated certificate optional. Avoid
temporary cert and key files in tests, keep cert in memory.
Registry.Get used a full sort to get the minimum of a list, and the sort
was broken because util.AddressUnspecifiedLess assumed it could find out
whether an address is IPv4 or IPv6 from its Network method. However,
net.(TCP|UDP)Addr.Network always returns "tcp"/"udp".
Before this patch, IPv4-compatible addresses (::ffff:aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd)
may be used if a quic6://some.domain:port is specified and both IPv4 and
IPv6 addresses exist for that domain name.
