Closes#617.
Closes#698.
The remaining work on the syncer is alluded to in a new comment:
1. Correctly constructing a block locator object
2. Detecting when we've stopped making progress syncing and restarting obtain_tips.
This fixes a bug introduced when we added heartbeat support. Recall that we
handle the Bitcoin connection state machine on a per-peer basis. Each
connection has a task created from the `Connection` struct, and a `Client:
tower::Service` "frontend" that passes requests to it via a channel. In the
`Connection` event loop, the connection checks whether the request channel has
been closed, indicating no further requests from the `Client`, in which case it
shuts itself down and cleans up resources. This occurs when all of the senders
have been dropped.
However, this behavior broke when we introduced heartbeat support, because we
spawned an additional task to send heartbeat messages along the request
channel. This meant that instead of having a single sender, dropped by the
`Client`, we have two senders, the `Client` and the "shadow client" task that
generates heartbeat messages. This means that when the `Client` is dropped, we
still have a live sender and the connection is not closed. To fix this, the
`Client` now uses a `oneshot` to shut down its corresponding heartbeat task.
This closes all senders.
* Add checkpoint list generation scripts
* Limit the checkpoint block data size
* Limit the checkpoint height gap
* Add Mainnet and Testnet checkpoint lists
* Parse hard-coded checkpoint lists
The lists were generated using the following limits:
- 256 MB spacing, based on block byte size, and
- 2000 blocks.
* Add skeleton of eventual zebra book
* reorg sections
* restore file and reorg book a little
* try setting up a firebase deployment
* allow firebase ci to work on test
* download mdbook
* fix book path
* use newer version of mdbook
* remove event hook for book branch pre merge
* Apply suggestions from code review

* Add MIN and MAX for BlockHeight and LockTime
* Remove duplicate test cases
* fix a comment about the minimum lock time
The minimum LockTime::Time is 5 November 1985 00:53:20 UTC, so the first
day that only contains valid times is 6 November 1985 (in all timezones).
Similarly, the maximum LockTime::Time is 7 February 2106 06::28::15 UTC,
so the last day that only contains valid times in all time zones is
5 February 2106.
* fix: Reject checkpoint lists with bad hashes or heights
Reject the all-zeroes hash, because it is the parent hash of the genesis
block, and should never appear in a checkpoint list.
Reject checkpoint heights that are greater than the maximum block
height.
* 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.
