In order to make it possible for higher layers to compare transaction quality
(ordering within the implicit total ordering on the mempool), expose a comparison
function and test it.
Before this commit, if a TxGraph::Ref object is destroyed, it becomes impossible
to refer to, but the actual corresponding transaction node in the TxGraph remains,
and remains indefinitely as there is no way to remove it.
Fix this by making the destruction of TxGraph::Ref trigger immediate removal of
the corresponding transaction in TxGraph, both in main and staging if it exists.
In order to make it easy to evaluate proposed changes to a TxGraph, introduce a
"staging" mode, where mutators (AddTransaction, AddDependency, RemoveTransaction)
do not modify the actual graph, but just a staging version of it. That staging
graph can then be commited (replacing the main one with it), or aborted (discarding
the staging).
Instead of leaving the responsibility on higher layers to guarantee that
no connected component within TxGraph (a barely exposed concept, except through
GetCluster()) exceeds the cluster count limit, move this responsibility to
TxGraph itself:
* TxGraph retains a cluster count limit, but it becomes configurable at construction
time (this primarily helps with testing that it is properly enforced).
* It is always allowed to perform mutators on TxGraph, even if they would cause the
cluster count limit to be exceeded. Instead, TxGraph exposes an IsOversized()
function, which queries whether it is in a special "oversize" state.
* During oversize state, many inspectors are unavailable, but mutators remain valid,
so the higher layer can "fix" the oversize state before continuing.
To make testing more powerful, expose a function to perform an internal sanity
check on the state of a TxGraph. This is especially important as TxGraphImpl
contains many redundantly represented pieces of information:
* graph contains clusters, which refer to entries, but the entries refer back
* graph maintains pointers to Ref objects, which point back to the graph.
This lets us make sure they are always in sync.
This adds an initial version of the txgraph module, with the TxGraph class.
It encapsulates knowledge about the fees, sizes, and dependencies between all
mempool transactions, but nothing else.
In particular, it lacks knowledge about txids, inputs, outputs, CTransactions,
... and so forth. Instead, it exposes a generic TxGraph::Ref type to reference
nodes in the TxGraph, which can be passed around and stored by layers on top.
