62f21d3600 Move address manager to its own package.
This commit does just enough to move the address manager into its own
package.  Since it was not originally written as a package, it will
require a bit of refactoring and cleanup to turn it into a robust
package with a friendly API.

ebc5db2710 Lookup each DNS seed in its own go routine.
By putting each DNS seed in its own go routine, btcd can start connecting
to nodes as they are found instead of waiting for all seeds to respond.  This
significantly speeds up startup time.

Additionally, logging was added to show how many addresses were fetched from
each seed.

f439dece37 Use chan struct{} for semaphores
With semaphores we don't actually care about the value passed in. It
makes sense to use a 0 bytes type in these cases.
There is also the added benefit of compiler optimisations for this
specific use case as described here:

e25b644d3b Implement a built-in concurrent CPU miner.
This commit implements a built-in concurrent CPU miner that can be enabled
with the combination of the --generate and --miningaddr options.  The
--blockminsize, --blockmaxsize, and --blockprioritysize configuration
options wich already existed prior to this commit control the block
template generation and hence affect blocks mined via the new CPU miner.

The following is a quick overview of the changes and design:

- Starting btcd with --generate and no addresses specified via
  --miningaddr will give an error and exit immediately
- Makes use of multiple worker goroutines which independently create block
  templates, solve them, and submit the solved blocks
- The default number of worker threads are based on the number of
  processor cores in the system and can be dynamically changed at
  run-time
- There is a separate speed monitor goroutine used to collate periodic
  updates from the workers to calculate overall hashing speed
- The current mining state, number of workers, and hashes per second can
  be queried
- Updated sample-btcd.conf file has been updated to include the coin
  generation (mining) settings
- Updated doc.go for the new command line options

In addition the old --getworkkey option is now deprecated in favor of the
new --miningaddr option.  This was changed for a few reasons:

- There is no reason to have a separate list of keys for getwork and CPU
  mining
- getwork is deprecated and will be going away in the future so that means
  the --getworkkey flag will also be going away
- Having the work 'key' in the option can be confused with wanting a
  private key while --miningaddr make it a little more clear it is an
  address that is required

Closes #137.

c673d76979 Fix case where block mgr could hang on shutdown.
This commit resolves an issue where it was possible the block manager
could hang on shutdown due to inventory rebroadcasting.  In particular, it
adds checks to prevent modification of the of rebroadcast inventory during
shutdown and adds a drain on the channel to ensure any outstanding
messages are discarded.

605eb7f4b4 Add a simulation test network via --simnet param.
This commit, along with recent commits to btcnet and btcwire, expose a new
network that is intended to provide a private network useful for
simulation testing.  To that end, it has the special property that it has
no DNS seeds and will actively ignore all addr and getaddr messages.  It
will also not try to connect to any nodes other than those specified via
--connect.  This allows the network to remain private to the specific
nodes involved in the testing and not simply become another public
testnet.

The network difficulty is also set extremely low like the regression test
network so blocks can be created extremely quickly without requiring a lot
of hashing power.

This change modifies the params struct to embed a *btcnet.Params,
removing the old parameter fields that are handled by the btcnet
package.

Hardcoded network checks have also been removed in favor of modifying
behavior based on the current active net's parameters.

Not all library packages, notable btcutil and btcchain, have been
updated to use btcnet yet, but with this change, each package can be
updated one at a time since the active net's btcnet.Params are
available at each callsite.

4d44eeb877 Move to protecting all peer stats by the same mutex.
In practise the races caused by not protecting these quite simply didn't
matter, they couldn't actually cause any damage whatsoever. However, I
am sick of hearing about these essentially false positivies whenever
someone runs the race detector (yes, i know that race detector has no
false positives but this was effectively harmess).

35936c1f01 Don't discuss internals in exported func comments.
This commit cleans up and moves a couple of comments in the recent pull
request which implements a rebroadcast handler (#114) in order to avoid
discussing internal state in the exported function comment.

How a function actually accomplishes the stated functionality is not
something that a caller is concerned with.  The details about the internal
state are better handled with comments inside the function body.

ab002c90cc Implement a rebroadcast handler.
This commit implements a rebroadcast handler which deals with
rebroadcasting inventory at a random time interval between 0 and 30
minutes.  It then uses the new rebroadcast logic to ensure transactions
which were submitted via the sendrawtransaction RPC are rebroadcast until
they make it into a block.

41da7ae606 Switch over to new btcjson.GetPeerInfoResult.
Rather than using a type specifically in btcd for the getpeerinfo, this
commit, along with a recent commit to btcjson, changes the code over to
use the type from btcjson.  This is more consistent with other RPC results
and provides a few extra benefits such as the ability for btcjson to
automatically unmarshal the results into a concrete type with proper field
types as opposed to a generic interface.

e5a1c6e5ac Use mutexes for byte counts to fix i386/arm panic.
This commit changes the server byte counters over to use a mutex instead
of the atomic package.  The atomic.AddUint64 function requires the struct
fields to be 64-bit aligned on 32-bit platforms.  The byte counts are
fields in the server struct and are not 64-bit aligned.  While it would be
possible to arrange the fields to be aligned through various means, it
would make the code too fragile for my tastes.  I prefer code that doesn't
depend on platform specific alignment.

Fixes #96.

a39f4a0698 Correct total byte counters for server.
Previously the getnettotals was just looping through all of the currently
connected peers to sum the byte counts and returning that.  However, the
intention of the getnettotals RPC is to get all bytes since the server was
started, so this logic was not correct.

This commit modifies the code to keep an atomic counter on the server for
bytes read/written and has each peer update the server counters as well as
the per-peer counters.

This implements --onion (and --onionuser/--onionpass) that enable a
different proxy to be used to connect to .onion addresses. If no main
proxy is supplied then no proxy will be used for non-onion addresses.

Additionally we add --noonion that blocks connection attempts to .onion
addresses entirely (and avoids using tor for proxy dns lookups).

the --tor option has been supersceded and thus removed.

This code borrows and fixes up a chunk of code to handle upnp from
Taipei-Torrent (https://github.com/jackpal/Taipei-Torrent), under
current versions of go none of the xml parsing was working correctly.
This fixes that and also refactors the SOAP code to be a little nicer by
stripping off the soap containers. It is still rather rough but seems to
correctly redirect ports and advertise the correct address.

Upnp is not run by default. --upnp will enable it, but it will still not
run if we are not listening or if --externalip is in use.

This commit is a rather large one which implements transaction pool and
relay according to the protocol rules of the reference implementation.
It makes use of btcchain to ensure the transactions are valid for the
block chain and includes several stricter checks which determine if they
are "standard" or not before admitting them into the pool and relaying
them.

There are still a few TODOs around the more strict rules which determine
which transactions are willing to be mined, but the core checks which
are imperative (everything except the all of the "standard" checks really)
to operate as a good citizen on the bitcoin network are in place.

5c1340be8f make logging about peers rather quieter.
Only log errors for most cases if the peer is persisent (and thus requested).
Only log by default after version exchange, and after losing a peer that had
completed version exchange. Make most other messages debug.

98109dbadd Fix shutdown hangs.
We would occasionally hang or a while during server shudown, this is due
to an outbound peer waiting on a connection or a sleep. However, we
don't actually require to wait for the peers to finish at all. So just
let them finish.

Secondly, make peer.disconnnect and server.shutdown atomic varaibles so
that checking them from multiple goroutines isn't race, and clean up
their usage.

Blockmanager is otherwise the only current consumer of chain and it is
messy to do it outside of it.

92a8605b24 Continue work on addrmgr and multi-peer.
- Remove leftover debug log prints
- Increment waitgroup outside of goroutine
- Various comment and log message consistency
- Combine peer setup and newPeer -> newInboundPeer
- Save and load peers.json to/from cfg.DataDir
- Only claim addrmgr needs more addresses when it has less than 1000
- Add warning if unkown peer on orphan block.

6c05e9d475 Flesh out addrmanger with some basic functionality.
Use it to add multiple peer support. We try and keep 8 outbound peers
active at all times.

This address manager is not as complete as the one in bitcoind yet, but
additional functionality is being worked on.

We currently handle (in a similar manner to bitcoind):

- biasing between new and already tried addresses based on number of connected
  peers.
- rejection of non-default ports until desparate
- address selection probabilities based on last successful connection and number
  of failures.
- routability checks based on known unroutable subnets.
- only connecting to each network `group' once at any one time.

We currently lack support for:
- tor ``addresses'' (an .onion address encoded in 64 bytes of ip address)
- full state save and restore (we just save a json with the list of known
  addresses in it)
- multiple buckets for new and tried addresses selected by a hash of address and
 source.  The current algorithm functions the same as bitcoind would with only
 one bucket for new and tried (making the address cache rather smaller than it
 otherwise would be).

33b65f943f Increment waitgroups before goroutines are started.
This commit changes the code so that all calls to .Add on waitgroups
happen before the associated goroutines are launched.   Doing this after
the goroutine could technically cause a race where the goroutine started
and finished before the main goroutine has a chance to increment the
counter.  In our particular case none of the goroutines exit quickly
enough for this to be an issue, but nevertheless the correct way should be
used.

121f7a47d4 Add block inventory relay.
This commit adds support for relaying blocks between peers.  It keeps
track of inventory that has either already been advertised to remote peers
or advertised by remote peers using a size-limited most recently used
cache.  This helps avoid relaying inventory the peer already knows as
much as possible while not allowing rogue peers to eat up arbitrary
amounts of memory with bogus inventory.

a3531957f4 Rework server startup and shutdown sequence.
The commit reworks the server statup and shutdown sequence to ensure the
server can always shutdown cleanly.  The peer code depends on being able
to send messages to the address and block managers, so they need to have
their lifecycle tied to the peer handler to prevent issues with
asynchronous shutdown order.
