This commit adds CrdsEntry trait which allows generic lookups into crds
table. For example to get ContactInfo or LowestSlot associated with a
Pubkey, the lookup code would be respectively:
crds.get::<&ContactInfo>(pubkey)
crds.get::<&LowestSlot>(pubkey)
ClusterInfo is the gateway to CrdsGossip function calls, and it already
has node's pubkey and shred version (full ContactInfo and Keypair in
fact).
Duplicating these data in CrdsGossip adds redundancy and possibility for
bugs should they not be consistent with ClusterInfo.
Broadcast stage and retransmit stage should arrange nodes on turbine
broadcast tree in exactly same order. Additionally any changes to this
ordering (e.g. updating how unstaked nodes are handled) requires feature
gating to keep the cluster in sync.
Current implementation is scattered out over several public methods and
exposes too much of implementation details (e.g. usize indices into
peers vector) which makes code changes and checking for feature
activations more difficult.
This commit encapsulates turbine peer computations into a new struct,
and only exposes two public methods, get_broadcast_peer and
get_retransmit_peers, for call-sites.
