This pull request merges in the changes for implementing Proposer-based timestamps into `master`. The power was primarily being done in the `wb/proposer-based-timestamps` branch, with changes being merged into that branch during development. This pull request represents an amalgamation of the changes made into that development branch. All of the changes that were placed into that branch have been cleanly rebased on top of the latest `master`. The changes compile and the tests pass insofar as our tests in general pass.
### Note To Reviewers
These changes have been extensively reviewed during development. There is not much new here. In the interest of making effective use of time, I would recommend against trying to perform a complete audit of the changes presented and instead examine for mistakes that may have occurred during the process of rebasing the changes. I gave the complete change set a first pass for any issues, but additional eyes would be very appreciated.
In sum, this change set does the following:
closes#6942
merges in #6849
This is the interface shared by types that can be used as event data in, for
example, subscriptions via the RPC.
To be compatible with the RPC service, data need to support JSON encoding.
Require this as part of the interface.
Remove the pubsub.Query interface and instead use the concrete query type.
Nothing uses any other implementation but pubsub/query.
* query: remove the error from the Matches method
* Update all usage.
This is a very small change, but removes a method from the
`service.Service` interface (a win!) and forces callers to explicitly
pass loggers in to objects during construction rather than (later)
injecting them. There's not a real need for this kind of lazy
construction of loggers, and I think a decent potential for confusion
for mutable loggers.
The main concern I have is that this changes the constructor API for
ABCI clients. I think this is fine, and I suspect that as we plumb
contexts through, and make changes to the RPC services there'll be a
number of similar sorts of changes to various (quasi) public
interfaces, which I think we should welcome.
This is part of the work described by #7156.
Remove "unbuffered subscriptions" from the pubsub service.
Replace them with a dedicated blocking "observer" mechanism.
Use the observer mechanism for indexing.
Add a SubscribeWithArgs method and deprecate the old Subscribe
method. Remove SubscribeUnbuffered entirely (breaking).
Rework the Subscription interface to eliminate exposed channels.
Subscriptions now use a context to manage lifecycle notifications.
Internalize the eventbus package.
