327bef3383 update tor/i2p docs to match current config syntax 
This removes the section that describes automatic configuration using
transport-agnostic endpoint-centric tub.port strings. That was the
approach where tub.port used "onion:80:hiddenServiceDir=PATH", and
Foolscap was able to query the generated Listener to find out what
address it was supposed to advertise. We considered this for a long
time, but in the end decided to use a more static approach, where
foolscap/tahoe never try to guess it's location: Tahoe always requires
tub.location= to be set.

When we get automatic configuration implemented, it'll be a simple CLI
argument, something like "tahoe create-server --listen=tor".

Instead, this document now explains how to configure Tor to create the
hidden service, then how to copy the generated .onion address into the
tahoe config.

This also removes a lot of other text that seems irrelevant now, and
refers the user to the tahoe.cfg docs (configuration.rst) instead of
including all the `[tor]`/`[i2p]` docs inline.

a099b9237d tor: socks.port is now a (restricted) endpoint string 
Foolscap has limitations that prevent us from accepting anything but a
TCP endpoint, but that will change in the future, so make the tahoe.cfg
syntax accept an endpoint, but then reject non-TCP ones. See the ticket
for details: refs ticket:2813.

This depends upon the new `foolscap.connections.tor.socks_port(host,
port)` API in foolscap-0.12.2, so it bumps the dependency to that (the
previous commit depended upon 0.12.1, but I hadn't gotten around to
updating the dep before now).

cf5b02b487 clean up tub.port processing, reject tcp:0 
This is the first step towards making node startup be synchronous: the
tub.port is entirely determined (including any TCP port allocation that
might be necessary) before creating the Tub, so the portnumber part of
FURLs can be determined earlier.

8279d919f3 remove "manhole" (ssh-accessible REPL) 
This little-used debugging feature allowed you to SSH or Telnet "into" a
Tahoe node, and get an interactive Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL) that
executed inside the context of the running process. The SSH
authentication code used a deprecated feature of Twisted, this code had
no unit-test coverage, and I haven't personally used it in at least 6
years (despite writing it in the first place). Time to go.

Also experiment with a Twisted-style "topfiles/" directory of NEWS
fragments. The idea is that we require all user-visible changes to
include a file or two (named as $TICKETNUM.$TYPE), and then run a script
to generate NEWS during the release process, instead of having a human
scan the commit logs and summarize the changes long after they landed.

000c148ad8 drop Python 2.6 (.travis.yml, doc, setup.py) 
Twisted 15 dropped support for it, which causes Travis CI tests to fail on 2.6.
We still theoretically support older versions of Twisted, so perhaps we should
configure Travis to test with those? I think we should drop Python 2.6 in any
case since distros are all on 2.7 now.

I'm leaving Travis running (and ignoring) the failing PyPy tests because I
don't know why that is there.

prepends those markers to each of those files.

4e0a8d8d4f fix small issues in formatting 
* fix warning from "rst2html --verbose" by not using the in-line hyperlink
  syntax. The warning said::

    known_issues.rst:261: (INFO/1) Hyperlink target "google chart api" is not referenced.

* remove dead code (no-longer-referenced link), thus fixing another warning

* change links to relative files to be just $FILENAME instead of
  file:$FILENAME, which I think will fix the problem of broken links on the
  trac and github, e.g. the link in
  https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/known_issues.rst ,
  which ought to go to

0a89b738bc Make introducer.furl unguessable. Closes #1802. 
Previously, Introducers always used a swissnum of "introducer", so
anyone who could learn the (public) tubid of the introducer would be
able to connect to and use it. This changes new Introducers to use the
same randomly-generated swissnum as clients and storage servers do, so
that you absolutely must learn the introducer.furl from someone who
knows it already before you can connect.

This change also moves the location of the file that stores
introducer.furl from BASEDIR/introducer.furl to
BASEDIR/private/introducer.furl, since that's where we keep the private
things. The first time an introducer is started with the new code, it
will move any existing BASEDIR/introducer.furl into the new place.

Note that this will not change the FURL of existing introducers: it will
only affect newly created ones. When you change an introducer's FURL,
you must also update all of the nodes (clients and storage servers)
which connect to it, so upgrading it to an unguessable one isn't
something we should do automatically.

e58a01270b Change the arbitrary URI support from implied to explicit 
The move webapi function now takes a target_type argument which lets it
know whether the target is a subdirectory name or URI. This is an
improvement over the old system in which the move handler tried to guess
whether the target was a name or a URI. Also fixed a little docs
copypaste problem and tweaked some line wrapping.

feature. Unit tests and documentation are included. Multiple in-progress
