## Description
Previously only outbound peers can be persistent.
Now, even if the peer is inbound, if it's marked as persistent, when/if conn is lost,
Tendermint will try to reconnect. This part is actually optional and can be reverted.
Plus, seed won't disconnect from inbound peer if it's marked as
persistent. Fixes#3362

We don't need it actually.
If we are low on addresses for peering, we need to discover more peers. The
previous behavior would query existing peers; however, if an existing peer
does not participate in peer exchange, then our node will not discover more peers.
This change consults both existing peers as well as seeds when there is a deficit
in address book addresses. This allows for discovering peers though existing channels
as well as via seeds if existing peers do not share addresses.
* use dialPeer function in a seed mode
Fixes#3532
by storing a number of attempts we've tried to connect in-memory and
removing the address from addrbook when number of attempts > 16
A prior change to address accidental DNS lookups introduced the
SocketAddr on peer, which was then used to add it to the addressbook.
Which in turn swallowed the self reported port of the peer, which is
important on a reconnect. This change revives the NetAddress on NodeInfo
which the Peer carries, but now returns an error to avoid nil
dereferencing another issue observed in the past. Additionally we could
potentially address #3532, yet the original problem statemenf of that
issue stands.
As a drive-by optimisation `MarkAsGood` now takes only a `p2p.ID` which
makes it interface a bit stricter and leaner.
ListOfKnownAddresses is removed
panic if addrbook size is less than zero
CrawlPeers does not attempt to connect to existing or peers we're currently dialing
various perf. fixes
improved tests (though not complete)
move IsDialingOrExistingAddress check into DialPeerWithAddress (Fixes#2716)
* addrbook: preallocate memory when saving addrbook to file
* addrbook: remove oldestFirst struct and check for ID
* oldestFirst replaced with sort.Slice
* ID is now mandatory, so no need to check
* addrbook: remove ListOfKnownAddresses
GetSelection is used instead in seed mode.
* addrbook: panic if size is less than 0
* rewrite addrbook#saveToFile to not use a counter
* test AttemptDisconnects func
* move IsDialingOrExistingAddress check into DialPeerWithAddress
* save and cleanup crawl peer data
* get rid of DefaultSeedDisconnectWaitPeriod
* make linter happy
* fix TestPEXReactorSeedMode
* fix comment
* add a changelog entry
* Apply suggestions from code review

* rename ErrDialingOrExistingAddress to ErrCurrentlyDialingOrExistingAddress
* lowercase errors
* do not persist seed data
pros:
- no extra files
- less IO
cons:
- if the node crashes, seed might crawl a peer too soon
* fixes after Ethan's review
* add a changelog entry
* we should only consult Switch about peers
checking addrbook size does not make sense since only PEX reactor uses
it for dialing peers!

* OriginalAddr -> SocketAddr
OriginalAddr records the originally dialed address for outbound peers,
rather than the peer's self reported address. For inbound peers, it was
nil. Here, we rename it to SocketAddr and for inbound peers, set it to
the RemoteAddr of the connection.
* use SocketAddr
Numerous places in the code call peer.NodeInfo().NetAddress().
However, this call to NetAddress() may perform a DNS lookup if the
reported NodeInfo.ListenAddr includes a name. Failure of this lookup
returns a nil address, which can lead to panics in the code.
Instead, call peer.SocketAddr() to return the static address of the
connection.
* remove nodeInfo.NetAddress()
Expose `transport.NetAddress()`, a static result determined
when the transport is created. Removing NetAddress() from the nodeInfo
prevents accidental DNS lookups.
* fixes from review
* linter
* fixes from review
* p2p/conn: FlushStop. Use in pex. Closes#2092
In seed mode, we call StopPeer immediately after Send.
Since flushing msgs to the peer happens in the background,
the peer connection is often closed before the messages are
actually sent out. The new FlushStop method allows all msgs
to first be written and flushed out on the conn before it is closed.
* fix dummy peer
* typo
* fixes from review
* more comments
* ensure pex doesn't call FlushStop more than once
FlushStop is not safe to call more than once,
but we call it from Receive in a go-routine so Receive
doesn't block.
To ensure we only call it once, we use the lastReceivedRequests
map - if an entry already exists, then FlushStop should already have
been called and we can return.
* Require addressbook to only store addresses with valid ID
* Do not shut down peer immediately after sending pex addrs in SeedMode

* fixes
* AppHash length is not fixed
* ignore existing peers in DialPeersAsync
Fixes#2253
* rename HasPeerWithAddress to IsDialingOrExistingAddress
[breaking] remove Switch#IsDialing
* check if addrBook is nil
to be consistent with other usages of addrBook across Switch
* different log messages for 2 use-cases
* [p2p/pex] connect to more than 10 peers
also, remove DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers because a) I am not sure it's
needed b) it's super confusing
look closely
```
maxPeers := sw.config.MaxNumPeers - DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers
if maxPeers <= sw.peers.Size() {
sw.Logger.Info("Ignoring inbound connection: already have enough peers", "address", inConn.RemoteAddr().String(), "numPeers", sw.peers.Size(), "max", maxPeers)
```
we print maxPeers = config.MaxPeers - DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers. So we
may not have enough peers even though we say we have enough.
Refs #2130
* update spec
* replace MaxNumPeers with MaxNumInboundPeers/MaxNumOutboundPeers
Refs #2130
* update changelog
* make max rpc conns formula visible to users
* update spec
* docs: note max outbound peers excludes persistent
* p2p/pex: Allow configured seed nodes to be offline
Previously you couldn't startup tendermint if a seed node was offline.
This now allows you to startup tendermint, as long as all seed node addresses
are formatted correctly. In the event that all seed nodes are down,
and the address book is empty, then it crashes with an informative error msg.
(This case doesn't occur if no seeds were specified)
Closes#1716
* (Squash this) Address melekes' comments
* (squash this) fix package imports
* (squash this) fix pex_reactor comment
* (squash this) add a test case
This is to reduce wait times when initially connecting. This still runs checks
such as whether you still want additional peers.
A test case has been created, which fails if this change is not included.
* use increment and decrement operators.
* remove unnecessary else branches.
* fix package comment with leading space.
* fix receiver names.
* fix error strings.
* remove omittable code.
* remove redundant return statement.
* Revert changes (code is generated.)
* use cfg as receiver name for all config-related types.
* use lsi as the receiver name for the LastSignedInfo type.
