In our README, we tell users to ignore these errors, so we should also
disable the issue URL.
Also include the hash in the error. (We don't want the span active for
all messages, we just want the hash in the error.)
As we approach our alpha release we've decided we want to plan ahead for the user bug reports we will eventually receive. One of the bigger issues we foresee is determining exactly what version of the software users are running, and particularly how easy it may or may not be for users to accidentally discard this information when reporting bugs.
To defend against this, we've decided to include the exact git sha for any given build in the compiled artifact. This information will then be re-exported as a span early in the application startup process, so that all logs and error messages should include the sha as their very first span. We've also added this sha as issue metadata for `color-eyre`'s github issue url auto generation feature, which should make sure that the sha is easily available in bug reports we receive, even in the absence of logs.

* implement inbound `FindBlocks`
* Handle inbound peer FindHeaders requests
* handle request before having any chain tip
* Split `find_chain_hashes` into smaller functions
Add a `max_len` argument to support `FindHeaders` requests.
Rewrite the hash collection code to use heights, so we can handle the
`stop` hash and "no intersection" cases correctly.
* Split state height functions into "any chain" and "best chain"
* Rename the best chain block method to `best_block`
* Move fmt utilities to zebra_chain::fmt
* Summarise Debug for some Message variants

This provides useful and not too noisy output at INFO level. We do an
info-level message on every block commit instead of trying to do one
message every N blocks, because this is useful both for initial block
sync as well as continuous state updates on new blocks.
The metrics code becomes much simpler because the current version of the
metrics crate builds its own single-threaded runtime on a dedicated worker
thread, so no dependency on the main Zebra Tokio runtime is required.
This change is mostly mechanical, with the exception of the changes to the
`tower-batch` middleware. This middleware was adapted from `tower::buffer`,
and the `tower::buffer` code was changed to implement its own bounded queue,
because Tokio 0.3 removed the `mpsc::Sender::poll_send` method. See
ddc64e8d4d
for more context on the Tower changes. To match Tower as closely as possible
in order to be able to upstream `tower-batch`, those changes are copied from
`tower::Buffer` to `tower-batch`.
This helps prevent overloading the network with too many concurrent
block requests. On a fast network, we're likely to still have enough
room to saturate our bandwidth. In the worst case, with 2MB blocks,
downloading 50 blocks concurrently is 100MB of queued downloads. If we
need to download this in 20 seconds to avoid peer connection timeouts,
the implied worst-case minimum speed is 5MB/s. In practice, this
minimum speed will likely be much lower.
This reverts commit 656bd24ba7.
The Hedge middleware keeps a pair of histograms, writing into one in the
current time interval and reading from the previous time interval's
data. This means that the reverted change resulted in doubling all
block downloads until after at least the second measurement interval
(which means that the time measurements are also incorrect, as they're
operating under double the network load...)
Sets the default value to the previous lookahead limit. My testing on
mainnet suggested that the newly lower value (changed when the
checkpoint frequency was decreased) is low enough to cause stalls, even
when using hedged requests.
