We'll need `id_pair_is_listed()` to track whether a sampled guard is
(or is not) listed in the consensus.
We'll need `missing_descriptor_for` to see whether we've downloaded
enough microdescs to use a consensus.
Previously I'd hoped to have it only apply to reproducible builds,
but the work of keeping it up-to-date and checking it for drift
seems to have been tripping us up. Let's try doing it the other way
for now, and we'll see how that goes.
Currently adding new deps can cause builds to not be reproducibles
because that new dependancies don't have their versions frozen in
misc/Cargo.lock.
This make so CI reject commits in that situation, with a message telling
what to do to fix the issue.
(Thank goodness for rust; we messed up the coherency in C here so
many times, but I'm pretty sure that this time around we can't have
gotten it wrong.)
Previously, we'd have to declare the field for a parameter in one
place, its default in a second, and its consensus key in a third.
That's error-prone and not so fun! This patch changes the
way we declare parameters so that we declare a structure once,
and macros expand it to all do the right thing.
This required a few new traits and implementations to ensure
uniformity across the types that can go in parameters: We need every
parameter type to implement TryFrom<i32> and to implement
SaturatingFromInt32.
Eventually we might want SaturatingFromInt32 to be a more generic
SaturatingFrom, but that's not for now.
Doing this makes the code faster, lets us throw away some code, and
makes it easier to add a "choose-N-disjoint relays" implementation.
See large comment about plusses and minuses of new code. (Note that
the old implementation wasn't constant-time either.)
