Add more fields to channel acceptor response so that users can have more
fine grained control over their incoming channels. With our chained
acceptor, it is possible that we get inconsistent responses from
multiple chained acceptors. We create a conjugate repsponse from all the
set fields in our various responses, but fail if we get different, non-
zero responses from our various acceptors. Separate merge functions are
used per type so that we avoid unexpected outcomes comparing interfaces
(panic on comparing types that aren't comparable), with casting used
where applicable to avoid code duplication.
This commit adds an optional error message to the channel acceptor's
reponse to allow operators to inform (or insult) unsuccessful channel
initiators as to the reason for their rejection.
This field is added in addition to the existing accept field to maintain
backwards compatibity. If we were to deprecate accept and interpret a
non-nil error as rejecting the channel, then received a response with
accept=false and a nil error, the server cannot tell whether this is a
legacy rejection or new mesage type acceptance (due to nil error),
so we keep both fields.
This commit moves and partially refactors the channel acceptor logic
added in c2a6c86e into the channel acceptor package. This allows us to
use the same logic in our unit tests as the rpcserver, rather than
needing to replicate it in unit tests.
Two changes are made to the existing implementation:
- Rather than having the Accept function run a closure, the closure
originally used in the rpcserver is moved directly into Accept
- The done channel used to signal client exit is moved into the acceptor
because the rpc server does not need knowledge of this detail (in
addition to other fields required for mocking the actual rpc).
