This also generates a default configuration section when it
doesn't exist, so it's backwards compatible.

ipfs-cluster-service now has a migration subcommand that upgrades
persistant state snapshots with an out-of-date format version to the
newest version of raft state. If all cluster members shutdown with
consistent state, upgrade ipfs-cluster, and run the state upgrade command,
the new version of cluster will be compatible with persistent storage.
ipfs-cluster now validates its persistent state upon loading it and exits
with a clear error in the case the state format version is not up to date.
Raft snapshotting is enforced on all shutdowns and the json backup is no
longer run. This commit makes use of recent changes to libp2p-raft
allowing raft states to implement their own marshaling strategies. Now
mapstate handles the logic for its (de)serialization. In the interest of
supporting various potential upgrade formats the state serialization
begins with a varint (right now one byte) describing the version.
Some go tests are modified and a go test is added to cover new ipfs-cluster
raft snapshot reading functions. Sharness tests are added to cover the
state upgrade command.
Snaps set a custom $HOME, but we were using /etc/passwd.
There might be other cases were using a custom $HOME might be
handy.
In UNIX systems, $HOME should be always set. For all the rest,
we fall back to the original os/user.HomeDir method.

There might be a case where the program is terminated before
configuration is saved.
Also, avoid calling save() multiple times on shutdowns.

Shows an error when running cluster with an unknown subcommand.
Renames "ipfs-cluster-service run" to "ipfs-cluster-service daemon" which
is consistent with go-ipfs and paves ground for #153.

The following commit reimplements ipfs-cluster configuration under
the following premises:
* Each component is initialized with a configuration object
defined by its module
* Each component decides how the JSON representation of its
configuration looks like
* Each component parses and validates its own configuration
* Each component exposes its own defaults
* Component configurations are make the sections of a
central JSON configuration file (which replaces the current
JSON format)
* Component configurations implement a common interface
(config.ComponentConfig) with a set of common operations
* The central configuration file is managed by a
config.ConfigManager which:
* Registers ComponentConfigs
* Assigns the correspondent sections from the JSON file to each
component and delegates the parsing
* Delegates the JSON generation for each section
* Can be notified when the configuration is updated and must be
saved to disk
The new service.json would then look as follows:

This new format aims to be easily extensible per component. As such,
it already surfaces quite a few new options which were hardcoded
before.
Additionally, since Go API have changed, some redundant methods have been
removed and small refactoring has happened to take advantage of the new
way.

We no longer set ConsensusDataFolder. We leave it empty (and ommited from the
configuration). When not set, it will take the path from which the configuration
file was read and use an "ipfs-cluster-data" subfolder in that path.
When set, the behaviour is just as before (ensures backwards compatiblity).
This will facilitate re-use of configuration files, for example, when mounting
them inside docker.

The disk informer uses "ipfs repo stat" to fetch the RepoSize value and
uses it as a metric.
The numpinalloc allocator is now a generalized ascendalloc which
sorts metrics in ascending order and return the ones with lowest
values.

An initial, simple approach to this. The PeerMonitor will
check it's metrics, compare to the current set of peers and put
an alert in the alerts channel if the metrics for a peer have expired.
Cluster reads this channel looking for "ping" alerts. The leader
is in charge of triggering repins in all the Cids allocated to
a given peer.
Also, metrics are now broadcasted to the cluster instead of pushed only
to the leader. Since they happen every few seconds it should be okay
regarding how it scales. Main problem was that if the leader is the node
going down, the new leader will not now about it as it doesn't have any
metrics for it, so it won't trigger an alert. If it acted on that then
the component needs to know it is the leader, or cluster needs to
handle alerts in complicated ways when leadership changes. Detecting
leadership changes or letting a component know who is the leader is another
dependency from the consensus algorithm that should be avoided. Therefore
we broadcast, for the moment.

New PeerManager, Allocator, Informer components have been added along
with a new "replication_factor" configuration option.
First, cluster peers collect and push metrics (Informer) to the Cluster
leader regularly. The Informer is an interface that can be implemented
in custom wayts to support custom metrics.
Second, on a pin operation, using the information from the collected metrics,
an Allocator can provide a list of preferences as to where the new pin
should be assigned. The Allocator is an interface allowing to provide
different allocation strategies.
Both Allocator and Informer are Cluster Componenets, and have access
to the RPC API.
The allocations are kept in the shared state. Cluster peer failure
detection is still missing and re-allocation is still missing, although
re-pinning something when a node is down/metrics missing does re-allocate
the pin somewhere else.

At the beginning we opted for native types which were
serializable (PinInfo had a CidStr field instead of Cid).
Now we provide types in two versions: native and serializable.
Go methods use native. The rest of APIs (REST/RPC) use always
serializable versions. Methods are provided to convert between the
two.
The reason for moving these out of the way is to be able to re-use
type definitions when parsing API responses in `ipfs-cluster-ctl` or
any other clients that come up. API responses are just the serializable
version of types in JSON encoding. This also reduces having
duplicate types defs and parsing methods everywhere.

This is the third implementation attempt. This time, rather than
broadcasting PeerAdd/Join requests to the whole cluster, we use the
consensus log to broadcast new peers joining.
This makes it easier to recover from errors and to know who exactly
is member of a cluster and who is not. The consensus is, after all,
meant to agree on things, and the list of cluster peers is something
everyone has to agree on.
Raft itself uses a special log operation to maintain the peer set.
The tests are almost unchanged from the previous attempts so it should
be the same, except it doesn't seem possible to bootstrap a bunch of nodes
at the same time using different bootstrap nodes. It works when using
the same. I'm not sure this worked before either, but the code is
simpler than recursively contacting peers, and scales better for
larger clusters.
Nodes have to be careful about joining clusters while keeping the state
from a different cluster (disjoint logs). This may cause problems with
Raft.

This commit adds PeerAdd() and PeerRemove() endpoints, CLI support,
tests. Peer management is a delicate issue because of how the consensus
works underneath and the places that need to track such peers.
When adding a peer the procedure is as follows:
* Try to open a connection to the new peer and abort if not reachable
* Broadcast a PeerManagerAddPeer operation which tells all cluster members
to add the new Peer. The Raft leader will add it to Raft's peerset and
the multiaddress will be saved in the ClusterPeers configuration key.
* If the above fails because some cluster node is not responding,
broadcast a PeerRemove() and try to undo any damage.
* If the broadcast succeeds, send our ClusterPeers to the new Peer along with
the local multiaddress we are using in the connection opened in the
first step (that is the multiaddress through which the other peer can reach us)
* The new peer updates its configuration with the new list and joins
the consensus
