* Extract test framework into hbbft_testing crate.
Also update Rust and some dependencies.
* Rename DHB tests.
They are only called `net_dynamic_hb` because we used to have two test
frameworks and two DHB test modules.
* Use threshold_crypto 0.2.0-beta1 to fix overflow.
* Upgrade to hex_fmt 0.2.
* Depend on threshold_crypto 0.2.0-beta2.
This avoids depending on two different versions of hex_fmt.
* Use inverse of `is_bft` function for checking in `average_higher`.
* Inline in `NetworkDimension`.
* Check more invariants when averaging network sizes.
* Added test that finds shrinking regression of `NetworkDimension`.
* Use bijection for shrinking of network dimensions.
* Fix types on dimensions.
* Hide `size` and `faulty` behind accessor methods.
* Make limits dependant on input size.
* Fixed clippy lints.
* Simplify averaging.
* Add support for RNG instantiation in proptests.
* Use `proptest` module strategy to create the rng for `net_dynamic_honey_badger`.
* Use seed generation instead of RNG instantiation in tests.
* Remove fixed RNG in `generate_map`.
* `VirtualNet` now supports setting the random generator through the builder.
* Add missing `time_limit` field to `::std::fmt::Debug` trait implementation on `NetBuilder`.
* Pass an instantiated random number generator through `NewNodeInfo` as a convenience.
* Make the random number generator of `DynamicHoneyBadgerBuilder` configurable, at the cost of now requiring mutability to call `build_first_node()`.
* Ensure RNGs are derive from passed in seed in `net_dynamic_hb` tests.
* Correct inappropriate use of `random::Random` instead of `Rng::gen` to generate dependent values in `binary_agreement`.
The original implementation used `rand::random()`, which will always use the `thread_rng`, ignoring the fact that an RNG has actually been passed in.
* Do not use `OsRng` but passed in RNG instead.
* Use reference/non-reference passing of rngs more in line with the `rand` crates conventions.
* Document `rng` field on `DynamicHoneyBadger`.
* Make `SyncKeyGen` work with the extend (`encrypt_with_rng`) API of `threshold_crypto`.
* Use passed-in random number generator in `HoneyBadger`.
* Create `SubRng` crate in new `util` module to replace `create_rng()`.
* Use an RNG seeded from the configure RNG when reinitializing `DynamicHoneyBadger`.
* Use the correct branch of `threshold_crypto` with support for passing RNGs.
* Fixed bug in `average_higher`, due to wrong assumptions about operator precendence.
* Enable overflow checks in `--release` tests.
This will hardly impact test performance, as the heavy lifting is done in the threshold crypto crate. Rough benchmarks showed significant differences only when `overflow-checks` was enable for `[profile.release]` (instead of `[profile.bench]`), causing it to be applied to `threshold_crypto` as well.
* Added missing debug implementations for various test networking parts.
* Initial proptest parts added, including network dimensions.
* Use a test configuration for proptests.
* Tweaks and documentation.
* Improved documentation for `net_dynamic_hb` test.
* Added two missing `;`.
* Allow insane topology creation.
* Renamed `is_sane()` to `is_bft`, `halfway` to `average_higher` and improved comments per suggestions.
* Rename `NetworkTopology` -> `NetworkDimension`.
* Silence newly added clippy warning.
* Smoothed `README.md`.
* Remove workaround for beta/nightly again.
* Caved in to clippy and changed the bft condition.
Random adversaries are created for `broadcast` and `honey_badger`. Random value generation was added for all type-dependencies of these algorithms, causing the `Rand` trait to be implement for a large portion of the codebase.
Additionally, `MessageWithSender` turned into an actual struct, making it much easier to handle. Tuple-like construction is still available through `MessageWithSender::new()`.
