This was triggered when the initial Introducer connection failed, so the
node read the introducer_cache.yaml from disk. That always returns
unicode strings, and the StorageFarmBroker insisted that it's
server-IDs (aka "key_s") were bytestrings.
The tests were extended to exercise the code that loads from disk and
delivers to the StorageFarmBroker, and more preconditions were put in
place to catch this sort of thing earlier next time.

The yaml.SafeLoader.add_constructor() should probably only be done once,
and moving this all into a module gives us an opportunity to test it
directly.
Historical note: V2 introducers have been around for three years
now (released in 1.10.0), so it's time to drop v1. This branch removes a
lot of fallback code, and tests which exercised it. refs ticket:2784
This patch removes some now-unused code: v1-related support functions on
the client, "stub-client" handlers, and v1-tolerant remote methods on
the server. The unit tests have been cleaned up a bit too, now that
there are fewer cases to exercise.
* use yaml.safe_load and yaml.safe_dump
* configure SafeLoader to return unicode consistently, not str
* log+ignore bad cache, instead of throwing error, since we're already
in the log+ignore chain from connect_failed()
* use a local exception type, instead of one from storage_client.py
* delegate delivery to self._deliver_announcements
Using yaml.safe_dump gives us:
- ann:
my-version: tahoe-lafs/1.11.0.post96.dev0
nickname: node-4
instead of:
- ann:
!!python/unicode 'my-version': !!python/unicode 'tahoe-lafs/1.11.0.post96.dev0'
!!python/unicode 'nickname': !!python/unicode 'node-4'
We want SafeLoader to consistently return unicode instead of sometimes
plain strings (for ASCII-safe values) and sometimes unicode
(for everything else). The data we write into the cache was all unicode
to start with (it came from a JSON parser), so it seems better to get
back unicode too.
