## Description
This diff refactors the codebase to reimplement tlsping and tcpping
to use the step-by-step measurements style.
See docs/design/dd-003-step-by-step.md for more information on the
step-by-step measurement style.
* 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.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2121
Since https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/527, if an experiment
returns an error, the corresponding measurement is not submitted since
the semantics of returning an error is that something fundamental
went wrong (e.g., we could not parse the input URL).
This diff ensures that all experiments only return and error when
something fundamental was wrong and return nil otherwise.

## Description
This PR contains a set of changes to move important interfaces and data types into the `./internal/model` package.
The criteria for including an interface or data type in here is roughly that the type should be important and used by several packages. We are especially interested to move more interfaces here to increase modularity.
An additional side effect is that, by reading this package, one should be able to understand more quickly how different parts of the codebase interact with each other.
This is what I want to move in `internal/model`:
- [x] most important interfaces from `internal/netxlite`
- [x] everything that was previously part of `internal/engine/model`
- [x] mocks from `internal/netxlite/mocks` should also be moved in here as a subpackage
This is how I did it:
1. `git clone https://github.com/ooni/probe-engine internal/engine`
2. ```
(cd internal/engine && git describe --tags)
v0.23.0
```
3. `nvim go.mod` (merging `go.mod` with `internal/engine/go.mod`
4. `rm -rf internal/.git internal/engine/go.{mod,sum}`
5. `git add internal/engine`
6. `find . -type f -name \*.go -exec sed -i 's@/ooni/probe-engine@/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/engine@g' {} \;`
7. `go build ./...` (passes)
8. `go test -race ./...` (temporary failure on RiseupVPN)
9. `go mod tidy`
10. this commit message
Once this piece of work is done, we can build a new version of `ooniprobe` that
is using `internal/engine` directly. We need to do more work to ensure all the
other functionality in `probe-engine` (e.g. making mobile packages) are still WAI.
