This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.
A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---
The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.
The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".
This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.
Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:
> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.
It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.
In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.
Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.
The source file changes were purely mechanical with:
git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

Add subscribers for AppConnector events
Make the RouteAdvertiser interface optional We cannot yet remove it because
the tests still depend on it to verify correctness. We will need to separately
update the test fixtures to remove that dependency.
Publish RouteInfo via the event bus, so we do not need a callback to do that.
Replace it with a flag that indicates whether to treat the route info the connector
has as "definitive" for filtering purposes.
Update the tests to simplify the construction of AppConnector values now that a
store callback is no longer required. Also fix a couple of pre-existing racy tests that
were hidden by not being concurrent in the same way production is.

Add and wire up event publishers for these two event types in the AppConnector.
Nothing currently subscribes to them, so this is harmless. Subscribers for
these events will be added in a near-future commit.
As part of this, move the appc.RouteInfo type to the types/appctype package.
It does not contain any package-specific details from appc. Beside it, add
appctype.RouteUpdate to carry route update event state, likewise not specific
to appc. Update all usage of the appc.* types throughout to use appctype.*
instead, and update depaware files to reflect these changes.
Add a Close method to the AppConnector to make sure the client gets cleaned up
when the connector is dropped (we re-create connectors).
Update the unit tests in the appc package to also check the events published
alongside calls to the RouteAdvertiser.
For now the tests still rely on the RouteAdvertiser for correctness; this is OK
for now as the two methods are always performed together. In the near future,
we need to rework the tests so not require that, but that will require building
some more test fixtures that we can handle separately.

`routeAdvertiser` is the `iplocal.LocalBackend`. Calls to
`Advertise/UnadvertiseRoute` end up calling `EditPrefs` which in turn
calls `authReconfig` which finally calls `readvertiseAppConnectorRoutes`
which calls `AppConnector.DomainRoutes` and gets stuck on a mutex that
was already held when `routeAdvertiser` was called.
Make all calls to `routeAdvertiser` in `app.AppConnector` go through the
execqueue instead as a short-term fix.

If we fail to parse the upstream DNS response in an app connector, we
might miss new IPs for the target domain. Log parsing errors to be able
to diagnose that.

Importing the ~deprecated golang.org/x/exp/maps as "xmaps" to not
shadow the std "maps" was getting ugly.
And using slices.Collect on an iterator is verbose & allocates more.
So copy (x)maps.Keys+Values into our slicesx package instead.

If the controlknob to persist app connector routes is enabled, when
reconfiguring an app connector unadvertise routes that are no longer
relevant.
Updates #11008
Signed-off-by: Fran Bull <fran@tailscale.com>
When an app connector is reconfigured and domains to route are removed,
we would like to no longer advertise routes that were discovered for
those domains. In order to do this we plan to store which routes were
discovered for which domains.
Add a controlknob so that we can enable/disable the new behavior.

If control advised the connector to advertise a route that had already
been discovered by DNS it would be incorrectly removed. Now those routes
are preserved.

This change allows us to perform batch modification for new route
advertisements and route removals. Additionally, we now handle the case
where newly added routes are covered by existing ranges.
This change also introduces a new appctest package that contains some
shared functions used for testing.
