The previous implementation failed when timestamps were duplicated between
peers, because there was not a 1-1 relationship between timestamps and peers.
The disconnected_peers() function allows us to prevent duplicate
connections without maintaining shared state between the peerset and the
dial-additional-peers task.
Previously, the TimestampCollector was intended to own the address book
data, so it was intended to be cloneable and hold shared state among all
of its handles. This is now modeled more directly by an
`Arc<Mutex<AddressBook>>`, so the only functionality left in the
`TimestampCollector` is setting up the inital worker, which is better
called `spawn` than `new`.
This also fixes a problem introduced in the previous commit where the
`TimestampCollector` was dropped, causing the worker task to shut down
early.
This allows us to hide the `TimestampCollector` and to expose only the
address book data required by the inbound request service. It also lets
us have a common data structure (the `AddressBook`) for collecting peer
information that can be used to manage information that other peers
report to us.
Doctests can only test public API, so now that the Codec is private, we can't
have a doctest. Since this test was only a code example (no behaviour test),
there's no value in replacing it with a unit test.
This gives API consumers a convenient name, and makes the Rustdoc output
significantly cleaner (because `init` can return a `BoxedZebraService`, not a
`Box<dyn ...ManyTypeConstraints.......>`.
Now that the `PeerConnector` handles both incoming and outgoing
handshakes, determining the next peer address is definitely out of scope
-- it takes a pre-existing tcp connection.
Failure uses a distinct Fail trait rather than the standard library's
Error trait, which causes a lot of interoperability problems with tower
and other Error-using crates. Since failure was created, the standard
library's Error trait was improved, and its conveniences are now
available without the custom Fail trait using `thiserror` (for easy
error derives) and `anyhow` (for a better boxed Error).

This is adapted from the MIT-licensed tower-balance implementation.
* Use PeerSet in the connect stub.
