2adcc31bb4 p2p/discover: new distance metric based on sha3(id)
The previous metric was pubkey1^pubkey2, as specified in the Kademlia
paper. We missed that EC public keys are not uniformly distributed.
Using the hash of the public keys addresses that. It also makes it
a bit harder to generate node IDs that are close to a particular node.

fc747ef4a6 p2p/discover: new endpoint format
This commit changes the discovery protocol to use the new "v4" endpoint
format, which allows for separate UDP and TCP ports and makes it
possible to discover the UDP address after NAT.

de7af720d6 p2p/discover: implement node bonding
This a fix for an attack vector where the discovery protocol could be
used to amplify traffic in a DDOS attack. A malicious actor would send a
findnode request with the IP address and UDP port of the target as the
source address. The recipient of the findnode packet would then send a
neighbors packet (which is 16x the size of findnode) to the victim.

Our solution is to require a 'bond' with the sender of findnode. If no
bond exists, the findnode packet is not processed. A bond between nodes
α and β is created when α replies to a ping from β.

This (initial) version of the bonding implementation might still be
vulnerable against replay attacks during the expiration time window.
We will add stricter source address validation later.

92928309b2 p2p/discover: add version number to ping packet
The primary motivation for doing this right now is that old PoC 8
nodes and newer PoC 9 nodes keep discovering each other, causing
handshake failures.

7ea131d4ff p2p/discover: fix pending replies iteration
Range expressions capture the length of the slice once before the first
iteration. A range expression cannot be used here since the loop
modifies the slice variable (including length changes).

cf754b9483 p2p/discover: fix race in ListenUDP
udp.Table was assigned after the readLoop started, so
packets could arrive and be processed before the Table was there.

8564eb9f7e p2p/discover: add node URL functions, distinguish TCP/UDP ports
The discovery RPC protocol does not yet distinguish TCP and UDP ports.
But it can't hurt to do so in our internal model.
