It's only responsible for doing the handshakes, so it should be named that way,
and then we can have a Connector responsible for actually opening the TCP
connection.
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.
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 gives API consumers a convenient name, and makes the Rustdoc output
significantly cleaner (because `init` can return a `BoxedZebraService`, not a
`Box<dyn ...ManyTypeConstraints.......>`.

* Initial work on PeerSet.
This is adapted from the MIT-licensed tower-balance implementation.
* Use PeerSet in the connect stub.
