This diff refactors the DNSTransport model to receive in input a DNSQuery and return in output a DNSResponse.
The design of DNSQuery and DNSResponse takes into account the use case of a transport using getaddrinfo, meaning that we don't need to serialize and deserialize messages when using getaddrinfo.
The current codebase does not use a getaddrinfo transport, but I wrote one such a transport in the Websteps Winter 2021 prototype (https://github.com/bassosimone/websteps-illustrated/).

These two small packages could easily be merged into the model
package, since they're clearly model-like packages.

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.
Building with go1.17 would still probably work, but in going
forward it will not, and it's better anyway to specify the exact
version with which we expect people to build.
Rather than building for Android using ooni/go, we're now using
ooni/oocryto as the TLS dependency. Such a repository only forks
crypto/tls and some minor crypto packages and includes the
same set of patches that we have been using in ooni/go.
This new strategy should be better than the previous one in
terms of building for Android, because we can use the vanilla
go1.18.2 build. It also seems that it is easier to track and
merge from upstream with ooni/oocrypto than it is with ooni/go.
Should this assessment be wrong, we can revert back to the
previous scenario where we used ooni/go.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2106 for extra context.
This diff fixes the way in which we print JSON results inside
`ooniprobe show <ID>` by using the "%s" fmt specifier rather than
using the JSON string itself as the format string.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2082
FWIW, `ooniprobe show --batch <ID>` was already WAI.
* Passed the TestHelpers field to RunAsyc and MeasureAsync. This reflects the test_helpers in the measurement.
* Spec already contains the correct output.

The reason to prefer composition over embedding is that we want the
build to break if we add new methods to interfaces we define. If the build
does not break, we may forget about wrapping methods we should
actually be wrapping. I noticed this issue inside netxlite when I was working
on websteps-illustrated and I added support for NS and PTR queries.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2096
While there, perform comprehensive netxlite code review
and apply minor changes and improve the docs.
I've seen some measurements returning some IP addresses for HTTPSSvc
queries but not returning any ALPN value.
For example:
```
% d4
decoding DNS round trip 0:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 57768
;; flags: rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;psiphon.ca. IN HTTPS
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 57768
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;psiphon.ca. IN HTTPS
;; ANSWER SECTION:
psiphon.ca. 121 IN A 31.13.85.53
```
Now, the response is clearly bogus. At the time of this writing that
IP address belongs to Facebook. This measurement has been collected in
China, so it's expected for the GFW to behave like this.
Yet, I don't feel like it's accurate to report this measurement as a
"no answer" response. Rather, this response is a valid one containing
a clearly invalid IP address and should be flagged as such.

This diff re-implements the vanilla_tor experiment. This experiment was
part of the ooni/probe-legacy implementation.
The reference issue is https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/803. We didn't
consider the possible improvements mentioned by the
https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/803#issuecomment-598715694 comment,
which means we'll need to create a follow-up issue for them. We will
then decide whether, when, and how to implement those follow-up measurements
either into `vanilla_tor` or into the existing `tor` experiment.
This novel `vanilla_tor` implementation emits test_keys that are mostly
compatible with the original implementation, however:
1. the `timeout` is a `float64` rather than integer (but the default
timeout is an integer, so there are no JSON-visible changes);
2. the `tor_log` string is gone and replaced by the `tor_logs` list
of strings, which contains the same information;
3. the definition of `error` has been augmented to include the
case in which there is an unknown error;
4. the implementation of vanilla_tor mirrors closely the one of torsf
and we have taken steps to make the two implementations as comparable
as possible in terms of the generated JSON measurement.
The main reason why we replaced `tor_log` with `tor_logs` are:
1. that `torsf` already used that;
2. that reading the JSON is easier with this implementation compared to
an implementation where all logs are into the same string.
If one is processing the new data format using Python, then it will
not be difficult convert `tor_log` to `tor_logs`. In any case, because
we extract the most interesting fields (e.g., the percentage of the
bootstrap where tor fails), it seems that logs are probably more useful
as something you want to read in edge cases (I guess).
Also, because we want `torsf` and `vanilla_tor` to have similar JSONs,
we renamed `torsf`'s `default_timeout` to `timeout`. This change has little
to none real-world impact, because no stable version of OONI Probe has
ever shipped a `torsf` producing the `default_timeout` field.
Regarding the structure of this diff, we have:
1. factored code to parse tor logs into a separate package;
2. implemented `vanilla_tor` as a stripped down `torsf` and added further
changes to ensure compatibility with the previous `vanilla_tor`'s data format;
3. improved `torsf` to merge back the changes in `vanilla_tor`, so the two
data formats of the two experiments are as similar as possible.
We believe producing as similar as possible data formats helps anyone who's
reading measurements generated by both experiments.
We have retained/introduced `vanilla_tor`'s `error` field, which is not very
useful when one has a more precise failure but is still what `vanilla_tor`
used to emit, so it makes sense to also have this field.
In addition to changing the implementation, we also updated the specs.
As part of our future work, we may want to consider factoring the common code
of these two experiments into the same underlying support library.
* Upgrade to github.com/upper/db/v4
* fix(oonitest): repair imports after merge
Oops, okay, it seems the merge did not preserve all the import
changes, so let's ensure we use the right imports here!
* cleanup(go.mod): don't refer to upper.io/db/v3
These lines didn't disappear previously because the merge commit
failed to remove all references to upper.io/db/v3.
