fd777bb210 p2p/simulations: add mocker functionality (#15207)
This commit adds mocker functionality to p2p/simulations. A
mocker allows to starting/stopping of nodes via the HTTP API.

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.

9feec51e2d p2p: add network simulation framework (#14982)
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.
