Before, things worked like this:
* Only signatures of Ed25519 keys could be verified
* Key encoding placed the plain binary Ed25519 key in the PEM, instead of the
key's ASN1 encoding
With this patch it now works like this:
* Ed25519 signatures are supported as before
* RSA keys are now supported too, assuming RSA-SHA256 signatures
* Both Ed25519 and RSA keys are encoded and decoded using actual PEM with ASN1
Using a dedicated type allows to record in the type the guarantees that we
provide, such as scheme being HTTPS and authority being present. Allows to
replace ugly `fromJust` and such with direct field access.
This patch includes some ugliness and commented out code. Sorry for that. I'll
clean it up soon.
Basically there's a TVar holding a Vector of at most 10 AP activities. You can
freely POST stuff to /inbox, and then GET /inbox and see what you posted, or an
error description saying why your activity was rejected.
The actor key will be used for all actors on the server. It's held in a `TVar`
so that it can always be safely updated and safely retrieved (technically there
is a single writer so IORef and MVar could work, but they require extra care
while TVar is by design suited for this sort of thing).
In Haskell by default if a thread has an exception, the main thread isn't
notified at all. This patch changes service thread launching to re-throw their
exceptions in the main thread, so that their failure is noticed.
I suppose there's no performance difference in using one, but it requires
`http-conduit` as a build dependency, so potentially we may be reducing build
time by removing unnecessary deps.
Until now the list of DB migration actions was incomplete, containing only
changes made since I added the migration system itself. It now contains the
2016-08-04 model, and then every change made since then.
IMPORTANT: The 2016-08-04 instance doesn't have a schema version entity at all,
so it is assigned version 0, while the actual version of its schema is 1. I'm
going to patch persistent-migration to allow it to be 1, making the migration
path smooth.
