brontide: add new ReadMessage method to brontide.Conn
This commit adds a new message to the brontide.Conn struct which allows
callers to read an _entire_ message from the stream. As defined now,
brontide is a message crypto messaging protocol. Previously the only
method that allowed callers to read attempted to hide this feature with
a stream-like abstraction. However, having this as the sole interface
is at odds with the message oriented Lightning wire protocol, and isn’t
sufficient to allow parsing messages that have been padded as is
allowed by the protocol.

This new ReadNextMessage is intended to be used by higher level systems
which implement the Lightning p2p protocol.

brontide: exclude MAC length from cipher text packet length prefix
Pervasively we would include the length of the MAC in the length prefix
for cipher text packets. As a result, the MAC would eat into the total
payload size. To remedy this, we now exclude the MAC from the length
prefix for cipher text packets, and instead account for the length of
the MAC on the packet when reading messages.

brontide: implement message chunking for the net.Conn implementation
This commit implements message chunking within the implementation of
net.Conn which implements our initial handshake, then uses the crypto
to read/write messages.

With this change it’s now possible to send message larger than 65535
bytes over a p2p crypto connection by properly chunking the messages on
the side of the connection that’s writing.

brontide: an authenticated key agreement protocol in three acts
This commit introduces Brontide: an authenticated key agreement
protocol in three acts. Brontide is the successor to lndc within lnd,
and ultimately within the greater Lighting Network. Brontide uses the
Noise_XK handshake for initial key agreement, then implements an AEAD
scheme which encrypts+authenticates both packets, and the lengths of
the packets on the wire. The initial authentication handshake preserves
the responder’s identity by never transmitting it to the initiator and
performing mutual authentication via an incremental Triple-DH based on
ECDH of secp256k1 and an HKDF which uses SHA-256.

Bronzed isn’t yet integrated within the wider daemon yet. Full
integration will land in a future pull request.
