* Previously, we only connected to the relay supplied by our partner, which
meant that if our relay differed from theirs, we'd never connect
* But we must de-duplicate the relays because when our relay *is* the same as
theirs, we'd have two copies, which means two connections. Now that we
deliver sided handshakes, we can tolerate that (previously, our two
connections would be matched with each other), but it's still wasteful.
This also fixes our handling of relay hints to accept multiple specific
endpoints in each RelayHint. The idea here is that we might know multiple
addresses for a single relay (maybe one IPv4, one IPv6, a Tor .onion, and an
I2P address). Any one connection is good enough, and the connections we can
try depend upon what local interfaces we discover. So a clever implementation
could refrain from making some of those connections when it knows the sibling
hints are just as good. However we might still have multiple relays entirely,
for which it is *not* sufficient to connect to just one.
The change is to create and process RelayV1Hint objects properly, and to set
the connection loop to try every endpoint inside each RelayV1Hint. This is
not "clever" (we could nominally make fewer connection attempts), but it's
plenty good for now.

fix relay hints
This adds a new kind of handshake message, which lets the Transit Relay
server tell when two connections (for the same channel) are really from the
same client, and therefore should not be connected to each other. The 0.8.2
client speaks the old handshake, but a future client will speak the new
handshake.

Tools which use `wormhole send` under the hood should use a distinct
--appid= (setting the same URL-shaped value on both sides, starting with a
domain name related to the tool and/or its author), so wormhole codes used by
those tools won't compete for short channelids with other tools, or the
default text/file/directory-sending tool.
Closes#113
closes#91
Also tweaks an error message: don't say "refusing to clobber pre-existing
file FOO" when we don't check that it's actually a file. Just say "..
pre-existing 'FOO'".
there was a function to "abbreviate" sizes, but it was somewhat
unclear and incomplete. reuse the sizeof_fmt_* set of functions from
the borg backup project (MIT licensed) to implement a more complete
and flexible display that will scale up to the Yottabyte and
beyond. it also supports non-IEC units (like "kibibyte", AKA 1024
bytes) if you fancy that stuff.
this is a workaround for #91: it allows users to better see the size
of the file that will be transfered.
*some* places are still kept in bytes, most notably when receive fails
to receive all bytes ("got %d bytes, wanted %d") because we may want
more clarity there.
text transfers also use the "bytes" suffix (instead of "B") because it
will commonly not reach beyond the KiB range.
note that the test suite only covers decimal (non-IEC) prefix, but it
is assumed to be sufficient to be considered correct.
The windows-specific bugfix we needed is now in the current Tox release,
so we no longer need pre-release code. Anyways the upstream git repo
moved (from bitbucket to github), so the install-from-bitbucket was
failing.
I think somebody was port-scanning the server (or pointed some
non-wormhole client at it), and caused some exceptions in the logs.
These are still bad handshakes, but should be logged normally instead of
throwing exceptions.
