Here we add special handling for sending an error response when the write timeout of the
HTTP server is just about to expire. This is surprisingly difficult to get right, since is
must be ensured that all output is fully flushed in time, which needs support from
multiple levels of the RPC handler stack:
The timeout response can't use chunked transfer-encoding because there is no way to write
the final terminating chunk. net/http writes it when the topmost handler returns, but the
timeout will already be over by the time that happens. We decided to disable chunked
encoding by setting content-length explicitly.
Gzip compression must also be disabled for timeout responses because we don't know the
true content-length before compressing all output, i.e. compression would reintroduce
chunked transfer-encoding.

This fixes a rare deadlock with the inproc adapter:
- A node is stopped, which acquires Network.lock.
- The protocol code being simulated (swarm/network in my case)
waits for its goroutines to shut down.
- One of those goroutines calls into the simulation to add a peer,
which waits for Network.lock.
The fix for the deadlock is really simple, just release the lock
before stopping the simulation node.
Other changes in this PR clean up the exec adapter so it reports
node startup errors better and remove the docker adapter because
it just adds overhead.
In the exec adapter, node information is now posted to a one-shot
server. This avoids log parsing and allows reporting startup
errors to the simulation host.
A small change in package node was needed because simulation
nodes use port zero. Node.{HTTP,WS}Endpoint now return the live
endpoints after startup by checking the TCP listener.

p2p/simulations: introduce dialBan
- Refactor simulations/network connection getters to support
avoiding simultaneous dials between two peers If two peers dial
simultaneously, the connection will be dropped to help avoid
that, we essentially lock the connection object with a
timestamp which serves as a ban on dialing for a period of time
(dialBanTimeout).
- The connection getter InitConn can be wrapped and passed to the
nodes via adapters.NodeConfig#Reachable field and then used by
the respective services when they initiate connections. This
massively stablise the emerging connectivity when running with
hundreds of nodes bootstrapping a network.
p2p: add Inbound public method to p2p.Peer
p2p/simulations: Add server id to logs to support debugging
in-memory network simulations when multiple peers are logging.
p2p: SetupConn now returns error. The dialer checks the error and
only calls resolve if the actual TCP dial fails.
This commit introduces a network simulation framework which
can be used to run simulated networks of devp2p nodes. The
intention is to use this for testing protocols, performing
benchmarks and visualising emergent network behaviour.
The lock file was ineffective because opening leveldb storage in
read-only mode doesn't really take the lock. Fix it by including a
dedicated flock library (which is actually split out of goleveldb).
Currently http cors and websocket origins are a comma separated string in the
config object. These are replaced with string arrays that are more expressive in
case of a config file.
