We were using a native uint128_t to represent the hs_pow nonce,
but as the comments note it's more portable and more flexible to
use a byte array. Indeed the uint128_t was a problem for 32-bit
platforms. This swaps in a new implementation that uses multiple
machine words to implement the nonce incrementation.

In proposal 327, "POW_SEED is the first 4 bytes of the seed used".
The proposal doesn't specifically mention the data type of this field,
and the code in hs_pow so far treats it as an integer but semantically
it's more like the first four bytes of an already-encoded little endian
blob. This leads to a byte swap, since the type confusion takes place
in a little-endian subsystem but the wire encoding of seed_head uses
tor's default of big endian.
This patch does not address the underlying type confusion, it's a
minimal change that only swaps the byte order and updates unit tests
accordingly. Further changes will clean up the data types.

Much faster per-hash, affects both verify and solve.
Only implemented on x86_64 and aarch64, other platforms

This adds test vectors for the overall client puzzle at the
hs_pow and hs_cell layers.
These are similar to the crypto/equix tests, but they also cover
particulars of our hs_pow format like the conversion to byte arrays,
the replay cache, the effort test, and the formatting of the equix
challenge string.

Fixes some type nitpicks that show up in Tor development builds,
which usually run with -Wall -Werror. Tested on x86_64 and aarch64
for clean build and passing equix-tests + hashx-tests.

This forgoes another external library dependency, and instead
introduces a compatibility header so that interested parties
(who already depend on equix, like hs_pow and unit tests) can
use the implementation of blake2b included in hashx.

This adds test vectors for the Equi-X proof of work algorithm and the
Hash-X function it's based on. The overall Equi-X test takes about
10 seconds to run on my machine, so it's in test_crypto_slow. The hashx
test still covers both the compiled and interpreted versions of the
hash function.
There aren't any official test vectors for Equi-X or for its particular
configuration of Hash-X, so I made some up based on the current
implementation.

I'm planning on swapping blake2b implementations, and this test

This was apparently misinterpreting "zero solutions" as an error
instead of just moving on to the next nonce. Additionally, equix
could have been returning up to 8 solutions and we would only
give one of those a chance to succeed.

We may want to choose something larger eventually, but 20 seemed
much too large. Very low nonzero efforts are still useful against
a script kiddie level DoS attack.

This adds a token bucket ratelimiter on the dequeue side
of hs_pow's priority queue. It adds config options and docs
for those options. (HiddenServicePoWQueueRate/Burst)
I'm testing this as a way to limit the overhead of circuit
creation when we're experiencing a flood of rendezvous requests.

Without this check, we never actually refetch the hs descriptor
when PoW parameters expire, because can_client_refetch_desc
deems the descriptor to be still good.

We mark the intro circuit with a new flag saying that the pow is
in the cpuworker queue. When the cpuworker comes back, it either
has a solution, in which case we proceed with sending the intro1
cell, or it has no solution, in which case we unmark the intro
circuit and let the whole process restart on the next iteration of
connection_ap_handshake_attach_circuit().
into two parts:
* a "consider whether to send an intro2 cell" part (now called
consider_sending_introduce1()), and
* an "actually send it" (now called send_introduce1()).
prepares the way for client-side pow cpuworkers
also happens to resolve bug https://bugs.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/40617
(which went into 0.4.7.4-alpha) because now we survive initing the
cpuworker subsystem when we're not a relay.
First (both client and service), make descriptor parsing not fail when
suggested_effort is 0.
Second (client side), if we get a descriptor with a pow_params section
but with suggested_effort of 0, treat it as not requiring a pow.
Third (service side), when deciding whether the suggested effort has
changed, don't treat "previous suggested effort 0, new suggested effort 0"
as a change.
An alternative design to resolve 'first' and 'second' above would be
to omit the pow_params from the descriptor when suggested_effort is 0,
so clients never see the pow_params so they don't compute a pow. But
I decided to include a pow_params with an explicit suggested_effort
of 0, since this way the client knows the seed etc so they can solve
a higher-effort pow if they want. The tradeoff is that the descriptor
reveals whether HiddenServicePoWDefensesEnabled is set to 1 for this onion
service, even if the AIMD calculation is currently requiring effort 0.
our pqueue implementation does bizarre unspecified things with
ordering of elements that are equal. it certainly doesn't do any
sort of "first in first out" property that i was expecting.
now make it explicit by saying that "equal-effort, added-earlier" is
higher priority.
specifically, if we have 16 in-flight rend circs, and the next
one at the top of the pqueue is lower than our suggested effort,
then don't launch it yet.
this way we always launch adequate-effort requests immediately, and
we always handle *some* low-effort requests, but we are ready at any
moment to handle a few new adequate-effort requests.
this change makes us reach the callback *after* each mainloop
run, rather than as the next event to run immediately after
activation.
with the old behavior, we were starving everything else to drain the
pqueue entirely, each time we got a new intro2 cell.
now we at least will get to other activities as well.
now we let ourselves queue up to twice as many as we expect, and when
we get to the limit we make a new pqueue and move over the first n
elements that we like most.
(the old approach, of calling SMARTLIST_DEL_CURRENT_KEEPORDER() on
elements in a pqueue, will destroy its heapify property.)
we also discard elements that are too old, either during the trimming
process or if they come up as the next request to respond to.
lastly, fix a fencepost error on how many rend reqs we would handle
per iteration.
If PoW are enabled, use a priority queue by effort for the rendezvous
requests hooked into the mainloop.

When parsing an INTRODUCE2 cell, we extract data in order to launch the
rendezvous circuit. This commit creates a data structure just for that
data so it can be used by future commits for prop327 in order to copy
that data over a priority queue instead of the whole intro data data
structure which contains pointers that could dissapear.
