The anti-entropy tests relied on the side-effect of the StartSync()
method to perform a full sync instead of a partial sync. This lead to
multiple anti-entropy go routines being started unnecessary retry loops.
This change changes the behavior to perform synchronous full syncs when
necessary removing the need for all of the time.Sleep and most of the
retry loops.
The state of the service and health check records was spread out over
multiple maps guarded by a single lock. Access to the maps has to happen
in a coordinated effort and the tests often violated this which made
them brittle and racy.
This patch replaces the multiple maps with a single one for both checks
and services to make the code less fragile.
This is also necessary since moving the local state into its own package
creates circular dependencies for the tests. To avoid this the tests can
no longer access internal data structures which they should not be doing
in the first place.
The tests still don't compile but this is a ncessary step in that
direction.
The anti-entropy code manages background synchronizations of the local
state on a regular basis or on demand when either the state has changed
or a new consul server has been added.
This patch moves the anti-entropy code into its own package and
decouples it from the local state code since they are performing
two different functions.
To simplify code-review this revision does not make any optimizations,
renames or refactorings. This will happen in subsequent commits.
DNS recursors can be added through go-sockaddr templates. Entries
are deduplicated while the order is maintained.

This patch removes the porter tool which hands out free ports from a
given range with a library which does the same thing. The challenge for
acquiring free ports in concurrent go test runs is that go packages are
tested concurrently and run in separate processes. There has to be some
inter-process synchronization in preventing processes allocating the
same ports.
freeport allocates blocks of ports from a range expected to be not in
heavy use and implements a system-wide mutex by binding to the first
port of that block for the lifetime of the application. Ports are then
provided sequentially from that block and are tested on localhost before
being returned as available.
