Closes#536.
This removes:
- the user-agent (we can add a mechanism to specify extra BIP14 components later, if any users ask us for that feature);
- the EWMA parameters (these were put in the config just to avoid making a choice);
- the peer connection timeout (we can change the default value if anyone ever has a problem with it);
- the peer set request buffer size (setting this too low can make the application deadlock);
The new peer interval is left in.
We had a brief discussion on discord and it seemed like we had consensus on the
following versioning policy:
* zebrad: match major version to NU version, so we will start by releasing
zebrad 3.0.0;
* zebra-* libraries: start by matching zebrad's version, then increment major
versions of each library as we need to make breaking changes (potentially
faster than the zebrad version, always respecting semver but making no
guarantees about the longevity of major releases).
This commit sets all of the crate versions to 3.0.0-alpha.0 -- the -alpha.0
marks it as a prerelease not subject to perfect adherence to compatibility
guarantees.
When we perform a handshake with a remote peer, we need to encode the
version messages with a particular network version before we find out
what the remote peer's version preference is. So in addition to having
a CURRENT_VERSION constant (which represents our preference), we need to
have a MIN_VERSION during the handshake (and later to determine whether
we'll talk to the peer at all).
* Replace Version MetaAddr by (Services, SocketAddr).
The version handshake message doesn't include last-seen timestamps for
the address fields, unlike other messages, so instead of modeling the
message data with a `MetaAddr` (which includes a timestamp), we should
just use a tuple.
* Simplify try_read_version implementation.
Because we no longer need to construct fake timestamps for the
`MetaAddr` fields, we don't need to use any of the parsed fields while
parsing later fields, and we can neatly wrap up the entire parsing logic
into a single expression.
* fmt
I didn't have the toolchain-specified `rustfmt` because I was mostly
offline and couldn't download it.
