* cleanup: remove UnderlyingNetworkLibrary and TProxy
While there, replace mixture of mocking and real connections inside
quicping with pure mocking of network connections.
Closes https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2224
* cleanup: we don't need a SimpleResolver now
This type was only used by UnderlyingNetworkLibrary and all the
rest of the code uses Resolver. So, let's avoid complexity by zapping
the SimpleResolver type and merging it inside Resolver.
* refactor: move tracex outside of engine/netx
Consistently with https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2121 and
https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2115, we can now move tracex
outside of engine/netx. The main reason why this makes sense now
is that the package is now changed significantly from the one
that we imported from ooni/probe-engine.
We have improved its implementation, which had not been touched
significantly for quite some time, and converted it to unit
testing. I will document tomorrow some extra work I'd like to
do with this package but likely could not do $soon.
* go fmt
* regen tutorials
This diff creates a new package under netx called tracex that
contains everything we need to perform measurements using events
tracing and postprocessing (which is the technique with which
we implement most network experiments).
The general idea here is to (1) create a unique package out of
all of these packages; (2) clean up the code a bit (improve tests,
docs, apply more recent code patterns); (3) move the resulting
code as a toplevel package inside of internal.
Once this is done, netx can be further refactored to avoid
subpackages and we can search for more code to salvage/refactor.

After https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/764, the build for
CGO_ENABLED=0 has been broken for miniooni:
https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/runs/6636995859?check_suite_focus=true
Likewise, it's not possible to run tests with CGO_ENABLED=0.
To make tests work with `CGO_ENABLED=0`, I needed to sacrifice some
unit tests run for the CGO case. It is not fully clear to me what was happening
here, but basically `getaddrinfo_cgo_test.go` was compiled with CGO
being disabled, even though the ``//go:build cgo` flag was specified.
Additionally, @hellais previously raised a valid point in the review
of https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/698:
> Another issue we should consider is that, if I understand how

This comment is relevant to the current commit because
https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/698 is the previous
iteration of https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/764.
So, while fixing the build and test issues, let us also distinguish
between the CGO_ENABLED=1 and CGO_ENABLED=0 cases.
Before this commit, OONI used "system" to indicate the case where
we were using net.DefaultResolver. This behavior dates back to the
Measurement Kit days. While it is true that ooni/probe-engine and
ooni/probe-cli could have been using netgo in the past when we
said "system" as the resolver, it also seems reasonable to continue
to use "system" top indicate getaddrinfo.
So, the choice here is basically to use "netgo" from now on to
indicate the cases in which we were built with CGO_ENABLED=0.
This change will need to be documented into ooni/spec along with
the introduction of the `android_dns_cache_no_data` error.

The objective is to make PR checks run much faster.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2113 for context.
Regarding netxlite's tests:
Checking for every commit on master or on a release branch is
good enough and makes pull requests faster than one minute since
netxlite for windows is now 1m slower than coverage.
We're losing some coverage but coverage from integration tests
is not so good anyway, so I'm not super sad about this loss.
This experiment pings a QUIC-able host. It can be used to measure QUIC availability independently from TLS.
This is the reference issue: https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1994
### A QUIC PING is:
- a QUIC Initial packet with a size of 1200 bytes (minimum datagram size defined in the [RFC 9000](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9000.html#initial-size)),
- with a random payload (i.e. no TLS ClientHello),
- with the version string 0xbabababa which forces Version Negotiation at the server.
QUIC-able hosts respond to the QUIC PING with a Version Negotiation packet.
The input is a domain name or an IP address. The default port used by quicping is 443, as this is the port used by HTTP/3. The port can be modified with the `-O Port=` option.
The default number of repetitions is 10, it can be changed with `-O Repetitions=`.
### Usage:
```
./miniooni -i google.com quicping
./miniooni -i 142.250.181.206 quicping
./miniooni -i 142.250.181.206 -OPort=443 quicping
./miniooni -i 142.250.181.206 -ORepetitions=2 quicping
```
