So the assignment of proxies is based on the load. The number of clients
is ronded down to 8. Existing proxies that doesn't report the number
of clients will be distributed equaly to new proxies until they get 8
clients, that is okish as the existing proxies do have a maximum
capacity of 10.
Fixes#40048
This will allow browser-based proxies that are unable to determine their
NAT type to conservatively label themselves as restricted NATs if they
fail to work with clients that have restricted NATs.
Proxies now include information about what type they are when they poll
for client offers. The broker saves this information along with
snowflake ids and outputs it on the /debug page.
Switch to containing all communication between the proxy and the broker
in the HTTP response body. This will make things easier if we ever use
something other than HTTP communicate between different actors in the
snowflake system.
Other changes to the protocol are as follows:
- requests are accompanied by a version number so the broker can be
backwards compatable if desired in the future
- all responses are 200 OK unless the request was badly formatted
