We now removed the need for Boost:chrono in all the libs, to avoid
accidentally linking to it again this change makes the apps link to
the actual specific libs instead of just all.
The NetworkManager now has more mature flow-control which means that we
send our buffers more regularly and we delay parsing received data if the
sending takes too long.
The direct effect should be that creating of a large number of messages
in response to incoming messages is no longer a problem in many cases.
The NetworkManager usage was mostly for low connection counts and this
made defaults selection easy.
With more usages it is important to allow the NWM-connection to be more
configurable about memory usage and leaner in general.
This changes the headers-buffers (used to create envelopes) to not be per
connection anymore but per thread using the tread_local keyword.
This changes the ring-buffers to become configurable using
NetworkConnections::setMessageQueueSizes().
Also removing some include statements where they were not really needed
in the P2PNet lib.
This adds all the header ints to chunked messages, solving the problem
of losing RequestId on roundtrips if the answer was too big.
Added a unit test for this "new" features.
This makes callbacks all use shared_from_this() in order to avoid
callbacks being done on deleted instances (thanks boost!).
Last, special case when the user doesn't connect but just sends messages
which caused a send of data, only to realize the connection wasn't open,
and then a connect.
This makes sure we immediately start a connect on queue of a message.
In extreme cases we might end up going over the bounds of the internal
buffers, as such myConnection.send() may now throw.
I also cleaned up the ping design and made it a bit more strict.
Last I increased the amount of incoming data I can receive in one go,
this will make throughput higher.
