This commit changes the WriteElement and WriteElements methods to take a
write buffer instead of io.Writer. The corresponding Encode methods are
changed to use the write buffer.
Similarly as with kvdb.View this commits adds a reset closure to the
kvdb.Update call in order to be able to reset external state if the
underlying db backend needs to retry the transaction.
This commit adds a reset() closure to the kvdb.View function which will
be called before each retry (including the first) of the view
transaction. The reset() closure can be used to reset external state
(eg slices or maps) where the view closure puts intermediate results.
In this commit, we migrate all the code in `channeldb` to only reference
the new `kvdb` package rather than `bbolt` directly.
In many instances, we need to add two version to fetch a bucket as both
read and write when needed. As an example, we add a new
`fetchChanBucketRw` function. This function is identical to
`fetchChanBucket`, but it will be used to fetch the main channel bucket
for all _write_ transactions. We need a new method as you can pass a
write transaction where a read is accepted, but not the other way around
due to the stronger typing of the new `kvdb` package.
This commit synchronizes the in-memory cache with the
on-disk state to ensure the waiting proof store is
externally consistent. Currently, there are scenarios
where the in-memory state is updated, and not reverted
if the write fails. The general fix is to wait to apply
modifications until the write succeeds, and use a
read/write lock to synchronize access with db operations.
In this commit, we modify the waiting proof slightly to acept dupliacte
waiting proofs, rather than reject them. Otherwise, it's possible that
the remote node first sends us their half of the waiting proof (before
we do), we write that to disk, then upon restart, we'll try to add it
again, but be rejected by the system.
Fixes#1315.
