refactor(netx): remove the self censorship mechanism (#364)
We're currently use jafar for QA and jafar is a better mechanism,
even though it is not portable outside of Linux.

This self censorship mechanism was less cool and added a bunch
of (also cognitive) complexity to netx.

If we ever want to go down a self censorship like road, we probably
want to do as little work as possible in the problem and as much
work as possible inside a helper like jafar.

Package github.com/ooni/probe-engine/netx

OONI extensions to the net and net/http packages. This code is used by ooni/probe-engine as a low level library to collect network, DNS, and HTTP events occurring during OONI measurements.

This library contains replacements for commonly used standard library interfaces that facilitate seamless network measurements. By using such replacements, as opposed to standard library interfaces, we can:

  • save the timing of HTTP events (e.g. received response headers)
  • save the timing and result of every Connect, Read, Write, Close operation
  • save the timing and result of the TLS handshake (including certificates)

By default, this library uses the system resolver. In addition, it is possible to configure alternative DNS transports and remote servers. We support DNS over UDP, DNS over TCP, DNS over TLS (DoT), and DNS over HTTPS (DoH). When using an alternative transport, we are also able to intercept and save DNS messages, as well as any other interaction with the remote server (e.g., the result of the TLS handshake for DoT and DoH).

This package is a fork of github.com/ooni/netx.
