* fix: Resist CheckpointVerifier memory DoS attacks
Allow a maximum of 2 queued blocks at each height, as a tradeoff between
efficient bad block rejection, and memory usage.
Closes#628.
* fix: Make max queued blocks at height equal to fanout
* fix: Just allocate all the capacity upfront
* fix: Use with_capacity(1) and reserve_exact(1)
* Log at warn level for commands that use stdout
* Let zebrad revhex read from stdin
Most unix tools support reading from stdin, so they can be used in
pipelines.
Part of #564.
* Flatten consensus::verify::* to consensus::*
* Move consensus::*::tests into their own files
* Move CheckpointList into its own file
* Move Progress and Target into a types module
QueuedBlock and QueuedBlockList can stay in checkpoint.rs, because
they are tightly coupled to CheckpointVerifier.
* also download tips and filter tips
* dispatch all block downloads together
* tweek to match henry's changes
* switch to more intuitive match

Each subsection has to have `serde(default)` to get the behaviour we want
(delete all fields except the ones that have been changed); otherwise, we can
delete only entire sections.
Prior to this change, the service returned by `zebra_network::init` would spawn background tasks that could silently fail, causing unexpected errors in the zebra_network service.
This change modifies the `PeerSet` that backs `zebra_network::init` to store all of the `JoinHandle`s for each background task it depends on. The `PeerSet` then checks this set of futures to see if any of them have exited with an error or a panic, and if they have it returns the error as part of `poll_ready`.
* rename zebra-storage to zebra-state
* Setup initial skeleton for zebra-state
* add test
* Apply suggestions from code review

Prior to this change, the seed subcommand would consistently encounter a panic in one of the background tasks, but would continue running after the panic. This is indicative of two bugs.
First, zebrad was not configured to treat panics as non recoverable and instead defaulted to the tokio defaults, which are to catch panics in tasks and return them via the join handle if available, or to print them if the join handle has been discarded. This is likely a poor fit for zebrad as an application, we do not need to maximize uptime or minimize the extent of an outage should one of our tasks / services start encountering panics. Ignoring a panic increases our risk of observing invalid state, causing all sorts of wild and bad bugs. To deal with this we've switched the default panic behavior from `unwind` to `abort`. This makes panics fail immediately and take down the entire application, regardless of where they occur, which is consistent with our treatment of misbehaving connections.
The second bug is the panic itself. This was triggered by a duplicate entry in the initial_peers set. To fix this we've switched the storage for the peers from a `Vec` to a `HashSet`, which has similar properties but guarantees uniqueness of its keys.
