* perf: prioritize announces based on scrape stats
This change is to improve responsiveness when starting a large batch of
torrents, e.g. when starting up a seedbox, but is also generally useful.
First, try to scrape as many torrents as as quickly as possible, giving
preference to that even over announces. Thanks to multiscrape we can run
through scrapes an order of magnitude faster than announces. Then scrape
responses tell us which swarms have leechers and we can prioritize those
torrents' announces.
Second, increase how many scrapes and announces we start at a time. This
limit probably hasn't been needed since 2da97b25 and by scraping faster,
the sooner we'll know which torrents to announce first.
* chore: remove printf() tracer
* perf: use scrape to know when a swarm is all-seeds
For private torrents, the tracker is the sole source of peers. So when a
private torrent's tracker responds that there are 0 leechers, we can use
that information to mark the entire swarm as seeders and to not initiate
connections to those peers if we are seeding. This can help seedboxes to
more efficiently pick which swarms to prioritize.
This strategy is not used on public torrents, since new seeder-to-seeder
connections can be useful there for pex.
This PR changes tr_peerMgrAddPex() to (1) remove tr_atom.seedProbability
field (which was not as robust as intended) and (2) add batches of peers
instead of a single peer.
* fix: only use all-seeds check for private torrents
* refactor: const correctness
* refactor: fix some implicit conversions
* refactor: make local pointers const if their objects are not modified
* refactor: do not cast away const in torrent-cell-renderer
* refactor: remove call to deprecated gtk_icon_size_lookup_for_settings
* refactor: member functions that do not mutate their objects should be declared const
* chore: do not end comments with a semicolon
* refactor: const correctness
* refactor: use getpwuid_r instead of getpwuid
* chore: simplify dict walking loop logic
* refactor: remove dead store assignment in announcer
* refactor: use std::make_shared
Since there is no way to mark parameters as [potentially] unused in
standard C and when using MSVC compiler, use the widely accepted
cast-to-void approach instead.
Assignments explicitly enclosed in parentheses are ignored.
* MISRA C:2004, 13.1 - Assignment operators shall not be used in expressions
that yield a Boolean value
* MISRA C++:2008, 6-2-1 - Assignment operators shall not be used in
sub-expressions
* MISRA C:2012, 13.4 - The result of an assignment operator should not be used
* MITRE, CWE-481 - Assigning instead of Comparing
* CERT, EXP45-C. - Do not perform assignments in selection statements
* CERT, EXP51-J. - Do not perform assignments in conditional expressions
* feat: make multiscrape limits adaptive
Previously hardcoded by TR_MULTISCRAPE_MAX. This change makes
that the initial value, then incrementally lowers the value
when multiscrapes get "req too long" style errors.
* fix: don't log personal announce url
* chore: treat HTTP 400 as scrape-too-long
* chore: copyediting
* chore: copyediting
* move 'const' to the right of the type
* make conditional tests explicitly boolean
* make 'key' const
* don't lookup a value we already have
* make an array for known too-big scrape error messages
* improved multiscrape throttle logging
* fix: multiscraping of low numbers of torrents
Handle the case of getting a 'multiscrape too big' error message
back even if the user fewer than TR_MULTISCRAPE_MAX torrents.
* uncrustify
* fix oops
* refactor: remove TR_MULTISCRAPE_MIN
Is there any reason to have a minimum batch size?

This way all the qualifiers (`const`, `volatile`, `mutable`) are grouped
together, e.g. `T const* const x` vs. `const T* const x`. Also helps reading
types right-to-left, e.g. "constant pointer to constant T" vs. "constant
pointer to T which is constant".
There're places where manual intervention is still required as uncrustify
is not ideal (unfortunately), but at least one may rely on it to do the
right thing most of the time (e.g. when sending in a patch).
The style itself is quite different from what we had before but making it
uniform across all the codebase is the key. I also hope that it'll make the
code more readable (YMMV) and less sensitive to further changes.
Now that MSVC support for C99 is quite good, remove previously needed but
now unused checks and definitions, like PRI* format macros (including
PRIdMAX and TR_PRIuSIZE, replaced with %jd and %zu) and inline macro.
Also, remove ssize_t typedef and replace few occurences with ev_ssize_t.
Also, remove check for stdbool.h availability (guaranteed by C99) and
include it unconditionally (except when in C++ mode).
On a way to factoring out OpenSSL support to a standalone file to ease
addition of other crypto libraries support in the future, move helpers
providing random numbers/data generation to crypto-utils.{c,h}. OpenSSL-
related functionality (generation of cryptographically strong random
data) is moved to crypto-utils-openssl.c.
Rename functions to follow currently accepted style:
* tr_cryptoRandBuf -> tr_rand_buffer
* tr_cryptoRandInt -> tr_rand_int
* tr_cryptoWeakRandInt -> tr_rand_int_weak
Fix rare case of invalid value being returned from tr_rand_int. Return
value for abs(INT_MIN) may be undefined and thus negative, and so
tr_rand_int will return negative value which is incorrect (out of
requested and expected range).
1. add the option the code to be used under GPLv2 or GPLv3; previously only GPLv2 was allowed
2. add the "proxy option" as described in GPLv3 so we can add future licenses without having to bulk-edit everything again :)
3. remove the awkward "exception for MIT code in Mac client" clause; it was unnecessary and confusing.
