TrustedPeers are specified in the configuration. Additional peers
can be added at runtime with Trust/Distrust functions.
Unfortunately we cannot use consensus.PeerAdd as a way to trust a peer as
cluster.PeerAdd+Join can be called by any peer and this calls
consensus.PeerAdd.
The result is consensus.PeerAdd doing a lot in Raft while consensus.Trust does
nothing, while in CRDTs consensus.Trust does something but consensus.PeerAdd
does nothing. But this is more or less consistent.
This takes advantange of the latest features in go-cid, peer.ID and
go-multiaddr and makes the Go types serializable by default.
This means we no longer need to copy between Pin <-> PinSerial, or ID <->
IDSerial etc. We can now efficiently binary-encode these types using short
field keys and without parsing/stringifying (in many cases it just a cast).
We still get the same json output as before (with minor modifications for
Cids).
This should greatly improve Cluster performance and memory usage when dealing
with large collections of items.
