With a 'Transactions' response that gets turned into an 'Inv(Vec<InventoryHash::Tx>)' message.
We don't yet handle a response from our peer for a 'mempool', which will have to be
a more generic 'Inv' type because we might receive transaction hashes we don't know about yet.

Moved SeedService out of the command closure Command currently spawns
a tokio task to DOS the seed service with `Request::GetPeers` every
second.

This splits out the connection handling code into a try_connect closure, which
could be refactored into a Service of its own.
On creation, when we are likely to have very few peers, launch many concurrent
connections to the first few candidates in the initial candidate set, before
continuing to grow the peer set according to demand signals.
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.
This was commented out because making the PeerConnector take a TcpStream
meant that the PeerConnector futures couldn't be constructed in the same
way as before, but now that the PeerConnector is Buffer'able, we can
just clone a buffered copy.
* Don't expose submodules of zebra_network::peer.
* PeerSet, PeerDiscover stubs.

* Initial work on PeerSet.
This is adapted from the MIT-licensed tower-balance implementation.
* Use PeerSet in the connect stub.
* Fix authorship, license information.
I *thought* I had done a sed pass over the Cargo defaults when doing
repository initialization, but I guess I missed it or something.
Anyways, fixed now.
Add a tower-based peer implementation.
Tower provides middleware for request-response oriented protocols, while Bitcoin/Zcash just send messages which could be interpreted either as requests or responses, depending on context. To bridge this mismatch we define our own internal request/response protocol, and implement a per-peer event loop that scans incoming messages and interprets them either as requests from the remote peer to our node, or as responses to requests we made previously. This is performed by the `PeerService` task, and a corresponding `PeerClient: tower::Service` can send it requests. These tasks are themselves created by a `PeerConnector: tower::Service` which dials a remote peer and performs a handshake.
This field is called `services` in Bitcoin and Zcash, but because we use
that word internally for other purposes, calling it `PeerServices`
disambiguates the meaning to "the services advertised by the peer",
rather than, e.g., a `tower::Service`.
Prior to this commit, the tracing endpoint would attempt to bind the
given address or panic; now, if it is unable to bind the given address
it displays an error but continues running the rest of the application.
This means that we can spin up multiple Zebra instances for load
testing.
