* client/authority-discovery: Limit number of connections to authorities
Instead of connecting to all sentry nodes of all authorities, with this
patch the authority discovery module does the following:
- Choose one sentry node per authority at random.
- Choose MAX_NUM_AUTHORITY_CONN out of the above at random.
The module uses randomness to prevent hot spots, e.g. all nodes trying
to connect to a single node. If the authority discovery module would
choose the nodes to connect to at random on each new address that it
learns of, the node would go through a lot of connection churn. Instead
it creates a random seed at start up and uses this seed for its RNG on
each update cycle.
* client/authority-discovery: Extract address cache into own module
* client/authority-discovery/src/addr_cache: Add basic unit tests
* client/authority-discovery: Replace unwrap with expect on [u8] cmp
* .maintain/sentry-node/docker-compose.yml: Prefix endpoint flags
* client/authority-discovery/src/addr_cache: Use sort_unstable and cmp
* client/authority-discovery: Use BTreeMap in addr_cache for sorted iter
To reduce connection churn it is preferrable to have `get_subset` of the
`addr_cache` to return the same result on repeated calls. `get_subset`
iterates a map. To make the process of iteration deterministic, use a
`BTreeMap` instead of a `HashMap`.
* Move transaction pool to primitives
* move backend, errors into primitives
* remove unused client depencies
* Move rpc-api into primitives
* Move peerset back to client
* Move rpc/api back to client, move palette/support/rpc into utils
* move support-rpc into subfolder
* move system-rpc into utils
* move transaction-pool and -graph back into client
* fix broken imports
* Clean up test primitives
* Make support test utils independent of frame
* remove unnecessary node dependencies from service
* Reactivate dependency script:
- only enforce the now achieved status quo will remain
- allow for primitives to depend on /client for now without failing
- more discriptive error message so people understand, what it wants
- minor fix to differentiative between ../client and /client (which may be a subfolder)
- don't allow this to fail anylonger.
