Forget known nodes with bad rating 2017-10-19 08:52:44 +02:00

Add ratings to peers
- outbound peers now have a rating
- it's also shown in the network status tab
- currently it's between -1 to +1, changes by 0.1 steps and uses a
hyperbolic function 0.05/(1.0 - rating) to convert rating to
probability with which we should connect to that node when randomly
chosen
- it increases when we successfully establish a full outbound connection
to a node, and decreases when we fail to do that
- onion nodes have priority when using SOCKS

Bootstrap provider mode and minor knownNodes changes
- if knownNodes grows to 20000, instead of ignoring new nodes, forget
  the 1000 oldest ones
- drop connection after sendaddr if too many connections, even if it's
  an outbound one
- if maximum total connections are lower than maximum outbound
  connections, active bootstrap provider mode
- in this mode, check all addresses received before announcing them
- so basically it only annouces those addresses it successfully
  connected to

knownNodes refactoring and shutdown fixes
- saveKnownNodes replaced the repeated pickle.dump
- with knownNodesLock instead of acquire/release
- outgoingSynSender had an unnecessary loop during shutdown causing
  excessive CPU usage / GUI freezing

Reduce cyclic dependencies
- rearranged code to reduce cyclic dependencies
- doCleanShutdown is separated in shutdown.py
- shared queues are separated in queues.py
- some default values were moved to defaults.py
- knownnodes partially moved to knownnodes.py
