This updates our logging framework from legacy freetext strings using
the `log` package to structured log entries using `log/slog`. I have
updated all INFO or higher level entries, but not yet DEBUG (😓)... So,
at a high level:
There is a slight change in log levels, effectively adding a new warning
level:
- DEBUG is still debug (ideally not for users but developers, though
this is something we need to work on)
- INFO is still info, though I've added more data here, effectively
making Syncthing more verbose by default (more on this below)
- WARNING is a new log level that is different from the _old_ WARNING
(more below)
- ERROR is what was WARNING before -- problems that must be dealt with,
and also bubbled as a popup in the GUI.
A new feature is that the logging level can be set per package to
something other than just debug or info, and hence I feel that we can
add a bit more things into INFO while moving some (in fact, most)
current INFO level warnings into WARNING. For example, I think it's
justified to get a log of synced files in INFO and sync failures in
WARNING. These are things that have historically been tricky to debug
properly, and having more information by default will be useful to many,
while still making it possible get close to told level of inscrutability
by setting the log level to WARNING. I'd like to get to a stage where
DEBUG is never necessary to just figure out what's going on, as opposed
to trying to narrow down a likely bug.
Code wise:
- Our logging object, generally known as `l` in each package, is now a
new adapter object that provides the old API on top of the newer one.
(This should go away once all old log entries are migrated.) This is
only for `l.Debugln` and `l.Debugf`.
- There is a new level tracker that keeps the log level for each
package.
- There is a nested setup of handlers, since the structure mandated by
`log/slog` is slightly convoluted (imho). We do this because we need to
do formatting at a "medium" level internally so we can buffer log lines
in text format but with separate timestamp and log level for the API/GUI
to consume.
- The `debug` API call becomes a `loglevels` API call, which can set the
log level to `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING` or `ERROR` per package. The GUI
is updated to handle this.
- Our custom `sync` package provided some debugging of mutexes quite
strongly integrated into the old logging framework, only turned on when
`STTRACE` was set to certain values at startup, etc. It's been a long
time since this has been useful; I removed it.
- The `STTRACE` env var remains and can be used the same way as before,
while additionally permitting specific log levels to be specified,
`STTRACE=model:WARN,scanner:DEBUG`.
- There is a new command line option `--log-level=INFO` to set the
default log level.
- The command line options `--log-flags` and `--verbose` go away, but
are currently retained as hidden & ignored options since we set them by
default in some of our startup examples and Syncthing would otherwise
fail to start.
Sample format messages:

The sort package is still used in places that were not trivial to
change. Since Go 1.21 slices package can be uswed for sort. See
https://go.dev/doc/go1.21#slices
### Purpose
Make some progress with the migration to a more up-to-date syntax.
* main:
fix(syncthing): ensure both config and data dirs exist at startup (fixes#10126) (#10127)
fix(versioner): fix perms of created folders (fixes#9626) (#10105)
refactor: use slices.Contains to simplify code (#10121)
As suggested in the linked issue, I've updated the versioner code to use
the permissions of the corresponding directory in the synced folder,
when creating the folder in the versions directory
### Testing
- Some tests are included with the PR. Happy to add more if you think
there are some edge-cases that we're missing.
- I've tested manually on linux to confirm the permissions of the
created directories.
- I haven't tested on Windows or OSX (I don't have access to these OS)
Switch the database from LevelDB to SQLite, for greater stability and
simpler code.

At a high level, this is what I've done and why:
- I'm moving the protobuf generation for the `protocol`, `discovery` and
`db` packages to the modern alternatives, and using `buf` to generate
because it's nice and simple.
- After trying various approaches on how to integrate the new types with
the existing code, I opted for splitting off our own data model types
from the on-the-wire generated types. This means we can have a
`FileInfo` type with nicer ergonomics and lots of methods, while the
protobuf generated type stays clean and close to the wire protocol. It
does mean copying between the two when required, which certainly adds a
small amount of inefficiency. If we want to walk this back in the future
and use the raw generated type throughout, that's possible, this however
makes the refactor smaller (!) as it doesn't change everything about the
type for everyone at the same time.
- I have simply removed in cold blood a significant number of old
database migrations. These depended on previous generations of generated
messages of various kinds and were annoying to support in the new
fashion. The oldest supported database version now is the one from
Syncthing 1.9.0 from Sep 7, 2020.
- I changed config structs to be regular manually defined structs.
For the sake of discussion, some things I tried that turned out not to
work...
### Embedding / wrapping
Embedding the protobuf generated structs in our existing types as a data
container and keeping our methods and stuff:
```
package protocol
type FileInfo struct {
*generated.FileInfo
}
```
This generates a lot of problems because the internal shape of the
generated struct is quite different (different names, different types,
more pointers), because initializing it doesn't work like you'd expect
(i.e., you end up with an embedded nil pointer and a panic), and because
the types of child types don't get wrapped. That is, even if we also
have a similar wrapper around a `Vector`, that's not the type you get
when accessing `someFileInfo.Version`, you get the `*generated.Vector`
that doesn't have methods, etc.
### Aliasing
```
package protocol
type FileInfo = generated.FileInfo
```
Doesn't help because you can't attach methods to it, plus all the above.
### Generating the types into the target package like we do now and
attaching methods
This fails because of the different shape of the generated type (as in
the embedding case above) plus the generated struct already has a bunch
of methods that we can't necessarily override properly (like `String()`
and a bunch of getters).
### Methods to functions
I considered just moving all the methods we attach to functions in a
specific package, so that for example
```
package protocol
func (f FileInfo) Equal(other FileInfo) bool
```
would become
```
package fileinfos
func Equal(a, b *generated.FileInfo) bool
```
and this would mostly work, but becomes quite verbose and cumbersome,
and somewhat limits discoverability (you can't see what methods are
available on the type in auto completions, etc). In the end I did this
in some cases, like in the database layer where a lot of things like
`func (fv *FileVersion) IsEmpty() bool` becomes `func fvIsEmpty(fv
*generated.FileVersion)` because they were anyway just internal methods.
Fixes#8247
### Purpose
Fix#9241 by expanding tildes in version paths.
When creating the versioner file system, first try to expand any leading
tildes to the user's home directory before handling relative paths. This
makes a version path `"~/p"` expand to `"$HOME/p"` instead of
`"/folder/~/p"`.
### Testing
Added a test to lib/versioner that exercises this code path. Also
manually tested with local syncthing instances.
* lib/versioner: Factor out DefaultPath constant.
Replace several instances where .stversions is named literally to all
use the same definition in the versioner package. Exceptions are the
packages where a cyclic dependency on versioner is impossible, or some
tests which combine the versions base path with other components.
* lib/versioner: Fix comment about trash can in simple versioner.
* lib/versioner: Fix wrong versioning type string in error message.
The error message shows the folder type instead of the versioning
type, although the correct field is used in the comparison.
refactor: replace empty slice literal with `var`
An empty slice can be represented by `nil` or an empty slice literal. They are
functionally equivalent — their `len` and `cap` are both zero — but the `nil`
slice is the preferred style. For more information about empty slices,
see [Declaring Empty Slices](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#declaring-empty-slices).

The restore function of Trash Can ran a rename at the end regardless of whether there was anything to rename. In this case, when the file-to-be-restored did not exist in the destination folder, this resulted in an error. I added a simple check, keeping track of whether the file existed prior to restoring it in the destination folder and depending on this value it will now return nil after the restoration to prevent the renaming function to kick off. Added a test for this specific edge-case as well.
The cleaning logic in util.go was used by Simple and Trashcan but only
really suited Trashcan since it works based on mtimes which Simple does
not use. The cleaning logic in util.go was moved to trashcan.go.
Staggered and Simple seemed to be able to benefit from the same base so
util.go now has the base for those two with an added parameter which
takes a function so it can still handle versioner-specific logic to
decide which files to clean up. Simple now also correctly cleans files
based on their time-stamp in the title together with a specific maximum
amount to keep. The Archive function in Simple.go was changed to get rid
of duplicated code.
Additionally the trashcan testcase which was used by Trashcan as well as
Simple was moved from versioner_test.go to trashcan_test.go to keep it
clean, there was no need to keep it in a separate test file
This replaces old style errors.Wrap with modern fmt.Errorf and removes
the (direct) dependency on github.com/pkg/errors. A couple of cases are
adjusted by hand as previously errors.Wrap(nil, ...) would return nil,
which is not what fmt.Errorf does.
Also adds idle time and keepalive parameters because how this is
configured has changed in the new package version. The values are those
that seems like might already be default, if keep-alives were enabled,
which is not obvious from the doc comments.
Also, Go 1.19 gofmt reformatting of comments.
all: Add package runtimeos for runtime.GOOS comparisons
I grew tired of hand written string comparisons. This adds generated
constants for the GOOS values, and predefined Is$OS constants that can
be iffed on. In a couple of places I rewrote trivial switch:es to if:s,
and added Illumos where we checked for Solaris (because they are
effectively the same, and if we're going to target one of them that
would be Illumos...).
This commit replaces `os.MkdirTemp` with `t.TempDir` in tests. The
directory created by `t.TempDir` is automatically removed when the test
and all its subtests complete.
Prior to this commit, temporary directory created using `os.MkdirTemp`
needs to be removed manually by calling `os.RemoveAll`, which is omitted
in some tests. The error handling boilerplate e.g.
defer func() {
if err := os.RemoveAll(dir); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
}
is also tedious, but `t.TempDir` handles this for us nicely.

- In the few places where we wrap errors, use the new Go 1.13 "%w"
construction instead of %s or %v.
- Where we create errors with constant strings, consistently use
errors.New and not fmt.Errorf.
- Remove capitalization from errors in the few places where we had that.
* lib/versioner: Reduce surface area
This is a refactor while I was anyway rooting around in the versioner.
Instead of exporting every possible implementation and the factory and
letting the caller do whatever, this now encapsulates all that and
exposes a New() that takes a config.VersioningConfiguration.
Given that and that we don't know (from the outside) how a versioner
works or what state it keeps, we now just construct it once per folder
and keep it around. Previously it was recreated for each restore
request.

* lib/versioner: Add placeholder to provide the absolute file path to external commands
This commit adds support for a new placeholder, %FILE_PATH_FULL%, to the
