* feat: allow msgIdProvider to fail
Closes: #642.
Changes the return type of the msgIdProvider to `Result[MessageID, string]` so that message id generation can fail.
String error type was chosen as this `msgIdProvider` mainly because the failed message id generation drops the message and logs the error provided. Because `msgIdProvider` can be externally provided by library consumers, an enum didn’t make sense and a object seemed to be overkill. Exceptions could have been used as well, however, in this case, Result ergonomics were warranted and prevented wrapping quite a large block of code in try/except.
The `defaultMsgIdProvider` function previously allowed message id generation to fail silently for use in the tests: when seqno or source peerid were not valid, the message id generated was based on a hash of the message data and topic ids. The silent failing was moved to the `defaultMsgIdProvider` used only in the tests so that it could not fail silently in applications.
Unit tests were added for the `defaultMsgIdProvider`.
* Change MsgIdProvider error type to ValidationResult
* adding raises defect across the codebase
* use unittest2
* add windows deps caching
* update mingw link
* die on failed peerinfo initialization
* use result.expect instead of get
* use expect more consistently and rework inits
* use expect more consistently
* throw on missing public key
* remove unused closure annotation
* merge master
* mcache fixes
* remove timed cache - the window shifting already removes old messages
* ref -> object
* avoid unnecessary allocations with `[]` operator
* simplify init
* fix several gossipsub/floodsub issues
* floodsub, gossipsub: don't rebroadcast messages that fail validation
(!)
* floodsub, gossipsub: don't crash when unsubscribing from unknown
topics (!)
* gossipsub: don't send message to peers that are not interested in the
topic, when messages don't share topic list
* floodsub: don't repeat all messages for each message when
rebroadcasting
* floodsub: allow sending empty data
* floodsub: fix inefficient unsubscribe
* sync floodsub/gossipsub logging
* gossipsub: include incoming messages in mcache (!)
* gossipsub: don't rebroadcast already-seen messages (!)
* pubsubpeer: remove incoming/outgoing seen caches - these are already
handled in gossipsub, floodsub and will cause trouble when peers try to
resubscribe / regraft topics (because control messages will have same
digest)
* timedcache: reimplement without timers (fixes timer leaks and extreme
inefficiency due to per-message closures, futures etc)
* timedcache: ref -> obj
* reuse single RNG instance for all crypto key generation
* use foolproof rng
* initRng -> newRng (because it's ref)
* fix test
* imports/exports, chat fix
* fix rsa
* imports and exports
* work around threadvar issue
* fixup
* mac workaround test
* Peer resultification and defect only
* Fixing some tests
* test fixes
* Rename peer into peerid
* better result error message in identify
* further merge fixes
* don't send public key in message when not signing (information leak)
* don't run rebalance if there are peers in gossip (see #242)
* don't crash randomly on bad peer id from remote
This adds gossipsub and floodsub, as well as basic interop testing with the go libp2p daemon.

* wip: gossipsub protobuf
* adding encoding/decoding of gossipsub messages
* add disconnect handler
* add proper gossipsub msg handling
* misc: cleanup for nim 1.0
* splitting floodsub and gossipsub tests
* feat: add mesh rebalansing
* test pubsub
* add mesh rebalansing tests
* testing mesh maintenance
* finishing mcache implementatin
* wip: commenting out broken tests
* wip: don't run heartbeat for now
* switchout debug for trace logging
* testing gossip peer selection algorithm
* test stream piping

* clean up floodsub publish logic
* allow dialing without a protocol
* adding multiple reads/writes
* use protobuf varint in mplex
* don't loose conn's peerInfo
* initial interop pubsub tests
* don't duplicate connections/peers
* bring back interop tests
* wip: interop
