These tests have become a common annoyance on CI. Fix them by allowing
messages with expiration == now into the cache and delaying the check
for expired message handling slightly.
In order to avoid disk thrashing for Accounts and HasAccount,
address->key file mappings are now cached in memory. This makes it no
longer necessary to keep the key address in the file name. The address
of each key is derived from file content instead.
There are minor user-visible changes:
- "geth account list" now reports key file paths alongside the address.
- If multiple keys are present for an address, unlocking by address is
not possible. Users are directed to remove the duplicate files
instead. Unlocking by index is still possible.
- Key files are overwritten written in place when updating the password.
- Manager.Accounts no longer returns an error.
- Manager methods take Account instead of common.Address.
- All uses of Account with unkeyed fields are converted.
The account management API was originally implemented as a thin layer
around crypto.KeyStore, on the grounds that several kinds of key stores
would be implemented later on. It turns out that this won't happen so
KeyStore is a superflous abstraction.
In this commit crypto.KeyStore and everything related to it moves to
package accounts and is unexported.
These changes make prompting behave consistently on all platforms:
* The input buffer is now global.
Buffering was previously set up for each prompt, which can cause weird
behaviour, e.g. when running "geth account update <input.txt" where
input.txt contains three lines. In this case, the first password
prompt would fill up the buffer with all lines and then use only the
first one.
* Print the "unsupported terminal" warning only once.
Now that stdin prompting has global state, we can use it to track
the warning there.
* Work around small liner issues, particularly on Windows.
Prompting didn't work under most of the third-party terminal emulators
on Windows because liner assumes line editing is always available.
