The supervisor used to rely on specific event reporting for identifying
issues at runtime. As the platform has grown, it has become much more
difficult to get any signal from the event noise. Recently the API side
for these events has been disabled, meaning these events only
contribute to bandwidth consumption. This commit disables the
event reporting feature of the supervisor which will be most likely
replaced by something like Sentry in the near future.

`withDefault` is a type helper that allows to create a type that
defaults to a default value when trying to decode a nullish value.
That type was not correctly working with boolean types, causing `false`
values to be replaced by true. This would specifically cause issues when
parsing the target state, where a `running: false` in a service would
become a `running: true` due to the type decoding.

The supervisor uses the following pattern for async module
initialization
```typescript
// module.ts
export const initialised = (async () => {
// do some async initialization
})();
// somewhere else
import * as module from 'module';
async function setup() {
await module.initialise;
}
```
The above pattern means that whenever the module is imported, the
initialisation procedure will be ran, which is an anti-pattern.
This converts any instance of this pattern into a function
```typescript
export const initialised = _.once(async () => {
// do some async initialization
});
```
And anywhere else on the code it replaces the call with a
```typescript
await module.initialised();
```

This allows to run integration tests during development and on CI
with the right dependencies. There are several changes that this
involves, but the gist of it is that a test environment is setup using
`docker-compose.test.yml`. This file is loaded by `resin-ci` during the
build, and ensures that integration tests are ran after setting up all
requirements. This commit also defines a test environment command that
can be setup using `npm run test:env` in order to run tests in a local
development machine.
This sets up the new `test/unit` and `test/integration` folders
and starts classification of some of the test files.
Note that unit tests include, `fs-utils` and `system-info` tests.
While these tests interact with the filesystem, the implementation
of these modules is simple enough, and the tests are fast enough to
allow these tests to fall under the `unit` test category (according to
test/README)
Change-type: patch
We are refactoring the supervisor test suite into unit tests (for
algorithms an domain model tests) and integration
tests (for interaction with out-of-process dependencies).
This means the current test suite needs to be classified into
these two categories, and fixed whenever possible.
This commit moves the test suite under the `test/legacy` folder, this
folder should be progressively migrated and eventually removed.
Subsequent commits will begin to split these files into unit and
integration whenever possible.
Depends-on: #1996

This replaces all relative paths in the test suite (e.g
`../src/compose/service.ts`) with the aliased path configured through
tsconfig.
This is a big change but it doesn't affect any functionality
Currently, tests only can import source code modules through relative
paths `../../`. This makes it very difficult to refactor and organize
tests in folders as the paths change.
[tsconfig-paths](https://www.npmjs.com/package/tsconfig-paths) allows to
reference the source through an alias defined in the "paths" section of
tsconfig.json
The supervisor used to perform tests both for the transpiled code (after
tsc) and one for the typescript code (using
ts-node/register/transpile-only). There is not really a reason for this
and this added complexity to the test configuration. This used to make
testing harder, as the built code didn't include source maps, meaning
the tests did not point to the right code.
Since we want to split tests in unit and integration tests as the next
test improvement, it makes sense to simplify these commands before
adding more complexity.

The linked issue describes the Supervisor not cleaning up locks it creates due
to crashing at just the wrong time. After internal discussion we decided to
differentiate Supervisor-created lockfiles from user-created lockfiles by using
the `nobody` UID (65534) for Supervisor-created lockfiles.
As the existing NPM lockfile lib does not allow creating lockfiles atomically
with different UIDs, we move to using the lockfile binary, which is part of the
procmail package. To allow nonroot users to write to lock directories, permissions
are changed to allow write access by nonroot users.

Starting with v3 state endpoint, the supervisor can receive
service configuration for services that are meant to be installed as
overlays or filesets on the host, as well as configuration for services
that are meant to be installed on the root partition. This commit just
ignores those services from the target state until support is added
Local mode is still a device level config. Eventually it will become a
property of an app, but for now, we don't want the supervisor trying to
uninstall supervisor or host app when local mode is set
This change makes the `api-binder/report` module more agnostic
to internal device state implementation details, moving necessary
healthchecks and data filtering to getCurrentForReport in device-state.
This also adds generic functions to perform comparison between current
state reports.
The role of the api-binder module is to be the intermediary
between the cloud API and the device-state. For this reason it makes sense to
isolate target state retrieval and current state reporting into this
module. This change just moves current state reporting to the directory.
This is required as we are phasing out app ids and we need to be able to
get app uuid from the current state of the network. The app-id now
exists as a container in new networks
This commit will restart containers as it needs to recreate the network.
This change updates types and database format in order to allow
receiving the new format of the target state from the cloud and allow
applications to keep working.
This change also updates metadata in the containers, meaning services
will need to be restarted on supervisor update

With the move to v3 target state and the move forward to remove
database ids from the supervisor, we want to ensure the ids are only
used for legacy support (such as within the API). This change renames
the method and sets it as deprecated
As changes to config.json may restart the supervisor before it can
trigger the reboot (or something can kill the supervisor before it can run that step),
the supervisor needs a persistent signal that a reboot is required
(instead of the current transient signal).
With this commit, the supervisor will now create a breadcrumb in the
host `/tmp` folder, that will be checked as the last step of the
configuration changes.
As config.json changes may restart the engine (and hence the supervisor)
in newer OS versions, this ensures that the supervisor does not get
interrupted while writing to backends.
This is necessary with the changes as of balenaOS 2.82.6, which watches config.json
and will restart balena-hostname and some other services automatically on file change.

The image manager module now uses tags instead of docker IDs as the main
way to identify docker images on the engine. That is, if the target
state image has a name `imageName:tag@digest`, the supervisor will always use
the given `imageName` and `tag` (which may be empty) to tag the image on
the engine after fetching. This PR also adds checkups to ensure
consistency is maintained between the database and the engine.
Using tags allows to simplify query and removal operations, since now
removing the image now means removing tags matching the image name.
Before this change the supervisor relied only on information in the
supervisor database, and used that to remove images by docker ID. However, the docker
id is not a reliable identifier, since images retain the same id between
releases or between services in the same release.

A previous PR (#1656) fixed validation for network ipam config,
checking that both network and subnet are defined for each ipam config entry
(as described in the docker documentation).
After that PR, the validations throws an exception if the network target state is incorrect,
but this turns out to be the wrong approach, because that exception is also triggered
when querying target state.
This isn't a problem in normal operation, but it is in local mode, because local
mode queries the old target state before sending a new one. Since the query fails,
the CLI can never push the new target state.
This PR replaces the exception with a warning on the logs, since a
misconfigured network won't cause any engine failures, it will just
prevent containers to communicate through the provided network.
A future improvement should move this validation to an earlier point in the process,
so the target state can get rejected before it even gets to a point it
can be used.
