This change removes the duplicities of the PeerManager component:
* No more commiting PeerAdd and PeerRm log entries
* The Raft peer set is the source of truth
* Basic broadcasting is used to communicate peer multiaddresses
in the cluster
* A peer can only be added in a healthy cluster
* A peer can be removed from any cluster which can still commit
* This also adds support for multiple multiaddresses per peer

The main differences is that the new version of Raft is more strict
about starting raft peers which already contain configurations.
For a start, cluster will fail to start if the configured cluster
peers are different from the Raft peers. The user will have to
manually cleanup Raft (TODO: an ipfs-cluster-service command for it).
Additionally, this commit adds extra options to the consensus/raft
configuration section, adds tests and improves existing ones and
improves certain code sections.

I have updated API endpoints to be /allocations rather than /pinlinst
It's more self-explanatory.

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.

CidArg used to be an internal name for an argument that carried a Cid.
Now it has surfaced to API level and makes no sense. It is a Pin. It
represents a Pin (Cid, Allocations, Replication Factor)

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.
