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.
When dropping delta index IDs due to upgrade, only drop our local one.
Previously, when dropping all of them, we would trigger a full send in
both directions on first connect after upgrade. Then the other side
would upgrade, doing the same thing. Net effect is full index data gets
sent twice in both directions.
With this change we just drop our local ID, meaning we will send our
full index on first connect after upgrade. When the other side upgrades,
they will do the same. This is a bit less cruel.
The current 500 "test failed" looks and sounds like a problem in the
relay pool server, while it actually indicates a problem on the
announcing side. Instead use 400 "connection test failed" to indicate
that the request was bad and what was the test.
Since #4340 pulls aren't happening every 10s anymore and may be delayed up to 1h.
This means that no folder error event reaches the web UI for a long time, thus no
failed items will show up for a long time. Now errors are populated when the
web UI is opened.

This is a new revision of the discovery server. Relevant changes and
non-changes:
- Protocol towards clients is unchanged.
- Recommended large scale design is still to be deployed nehind nginx (I
tested, and it's still a lot faster at terminating TLS).
- Database backend is leveldb again, only. It scales enough, is easy to
setup, and we don't need any backend to take care of.
- Server supports replication. This is a simple TCP channel - protect it
with a firewall when deploying over the internet. (We deploy this within
the same datacenter, and with firewall.) Any incoming client announces
are sent over the replication channel(s) to other peer discosrvs.
Incoming replication changes are applied to the database as if they came
from clients, but without the TLS/certificate overhead.
- Metrics are exposed using the prometheus library, when enabled.
- The database values and replication protocol is protobuf, because JSON
was quite CPU intensive when I tried that and benchmarked it.
- The "Retry-After" value for failed lookups gets slowly increased from
a default of 120 seconds, by 5 seconds for each failed lookup,
independently by each discosrv. This lowers the query load over time for
clients that are never seen. The Retry-After maxes out at 3600 after a
couple of weeks of this increase. The number of failed lookups is
stored in the database, now and then (avoiding making each lookup a
database put).
All in all this means clients can be pointed towards a cluster using
just multiple A / AAAA records to gain both load sharing and redundancy
(if one is down, clients will talk to the remaining ones).

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.

So STDEADLOCK seems to do the same thing as STDEADLOCKTIMEOUT, except in
the other package. Consolidate?
STDEADLOCKTHRESHOLD is actually called STLOCKTHRESHOLD, correct the help
text.

Two issues since the filesystem migration;
- filepath.Base() doesn't do what the code expected when the path ends
in a slash, and we make sure the path ends in a slash.
- the return should be fully qualified, not just the last component.
With this change it works as before, and passes the new test for it.
