a638a97806 implement connections:tcp=disabled
This enables an I2P-only node, which disables TCP entirely (instead of
mapping TCP to Tor, which was the only other option that
reveal-IP-address=False would allow).

076b3895dc config: change syntax of no-listen mode
We now use::

  tub.port = disabled
  tub.location = disabled

instead of using an empty value (but the key still being present, since
if the key is missing entirely, that means "be automatic").

a03f68b787 tahoe.cfg: fix spelling of 'enabled' for tor/i2p
We should use "enabled = true", instead of "enable = true", since
the rest of tahoe.cfg uses "enabled".

d47fc0fd27 config: add reveal-IP-address=False
This adds a safety flag named `[node] reveal-IP-address`, for which the
default value is True. When this is set to False, any configuration that
might reveal the node's IP address (to servers, or the external network)
will cause a PrivacyError to be raised at startup, terminating the node
before it gets a chance to betray the user's privacy. It also adds docs
and tests.

fea8b627dd if tub.port is empty, don't listen
Updated config docs. Added errors if we're not listening but were told
to enable storage, helper, or if we're the Introducer server.

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.

0bebbe3290 fix warnings from rst2html
Apparently the in-line link syntax with "<>" in them causes these warnings. I
don't know why. I changed them all to a slightly more verbose syntax.

Thanks to Mike Kazantzsev's review comment
(https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/pull/67#commitcomment-4561370), I
moved the links to the end of each section.

82579cec96 magic first line tells emacs to use utf8+bom
Add ".. -*- coding: utf-8-with-signature -*-" to the first line of each .rst
file. This tells emacs to treat the file contents as utf-8, and also to prepend
a so-called utf-8 "bom" marker at the beginning of the file. This patch also
prepends those markers to each of those files.

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.
