Problem:
RetroShare connects to all ssl's at once. In Windows XP there is a build-in connection limit of concurrent incomplete connections.
Quote:
"The TCP/IP stack in Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed limits the number of concurrent, incomplete outbound TCP connection attempts. When the limit is reached, subsequent connection attempts are put in a queue and resolved at a fixed rate so that there are only a limited number of connections in the incomplete state."
This results in a high usage of the nonepaged pool and when it runs over the limit it results in the following error in the system log:
German: "TCP/IP hat das Sicherheitslimit erreicht, das für die Anzahl gleichzeitiger TCP-Verbindungsversuche festgelegt wurde."
English: "TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent (incomplete) TCP connect attempts."
After a longer runtime of RetroShare and a very high usage of the nonepaged pool all connections of all running programs are lost and no new connections can be made. At the end it can cause a blue screen.

Rework of AuthSSL: cleanup and split up.
* Split out independent SSL functions into sslfns.h / sslfns.cc
* Reworked SSL certificate storage.
* Reworked SignDataBin / VerifyDataBin (fixed memory leaks).
* Removed funny code: /* cert->cert_info->key->pkey is NULL */
- just use X509_get_pubkey() instead.
* Removed lots of old code.
* Fixed up Mutex usage in AuthSSL - which was random.
* Removed certificates from tlvSignature serialiser obj.
* removed certificates from p3distrib messages.
* Starting removing "unused parameter" compiler warnings.
* Various related changes to make libretroshare compile.

* Stun code now runs continually - to check external network state.
* Udpsorter controls DHT stun is on/off. (via p3ConnectMgr)
* added code to enable threads to join/restart
* enabled NetRestart for UDP and TCP.
* tweaked networking code for faster startup (now ~30 seconds - can still be improved).
* tweaked debug messages for testing networking
* Added test for checking external IP address determination.

* Switched to miniupnpc-1.0
* modified miniupnpc to add lease duration.
* set lease duration to 1 Hr.
* Modified configure scripts to use miniupnpc-1.0
* added TIMEOUT to all connections (5 sec for TCP - Important!)
* reduced TCP offset delay to 2 seconds.
* BUGFIX: Added missing connect_parameter wrapper function.
* added reset to other connection methods when connection is made.
* Added Connection Type (TCP/UDP) information to feedback/GUI
* Increased default Data Rates: from 50/50 to 100/500 kB/s
* Removed Default Bootstrap Ids. (only automatic now!)

the rewrite of the retroshare core networking stack.
This check-in commits the changes to the pqi code,
and provides the majority of the improvements.
(1) Introduced new interfaces for DHT and UPnP abstraction: p3dhtmgr.h, p3upnpmgr.h
(2) Introduces abstraction for Authentication: p3authmgr.h
(3) New Connection Manager to coordinate networking code: p3connmgr.h
(4) New Configuration Manager: p3cfgmgr.h
This library has been significantly modified to support DHT synced connections
to enable connections between Firewalled Friends. The connection code has
been rewritten within a new framework, which should make extensions easier to code.
Also removed significant amount of old code relating to Tunnels, Channels etc.
This will be recycled later as higher level services that should not be
part of the core networking library.

- Added new serialiser (PQItem -> RsItem), removed old one.
- switched packet sorting from ChanId (array of ids) to PeerId (string)
- introduced cleaner service interface (pqiservice).
- moved p3disc to service interface.
- modified streamers to use the new serialiser.
- moved msg/chat to service interface.
- removed old source code. (supernode / p3loopback).
I've disabled UDP connections / Proxy and Channels for the moment.
The code it still here, but is not compiled. The Proxy and Channels
will become services, and the UDP connections will be reworked
in the near future.
