20089c4e83 make headers quasi-consistent (#660)
possible breakages:

* `FN_HEADER` on cold are no longer `s/-/_/` -- this is so that cold functions
can rebuild the headers as they were when they came in on the request (fdks,
specifically), there's no guarantee that a reversal `s/_/-/` is the original
header on the request.
* app and route config no longer `s/-/_/` -- it seemed really weird to rewrite
the users config vars on these. should just pass them exactly as is to env.
* headers no longer contain the environment vars (previously, base config; app
config, route config, `FN_PATH`, etc.), these are still available in the
environment.

this gets rid of a lot of the code around headers, specifically the stuff that
shoved everything into headers when constructing a call to begin with. now we
just store the headers separately and add a few things, like FN_CALL_ID to
them, and build a separate 'config' now to store on the call. I thought
'config' was more aptly named, 'env' was confusing, though now 'config' is
exactly what 'base_vars' was, which is only the things being put into the env.
we weren't storing this field in the db, this doesn't break unless there are
messages in a queue from another version, anyway, don't think we're there and
don't expect any breakage for anybody with field name changes.

this makes the configuration stuff pretty straight forward, there's just two
separate buckets of things, and cold just needs to mash them together into the
env, and otherwise hot containers just need to put 'config' in the env, and then
hot format can shove 'headers' in however they'd like. this seems better than
my last idea about making this easier but worse (RIP).

this means:

* headers no longer contain all vars, the set of base vars can only be found
in the environment.
* headers is only the headers from request + call_id, deadline, method, url
* for cold, we simply add the headers to the environment, prepending
`FN_HEADER_` to them, BUT NOT upper casing or `s/-/_/`
* fixes issue where async hot functions would end up with `Fn_header_`
prefixed headers
* removes idea of 'base' vars and 'env'. this was a strange concept. now we just have
'config' which was base vars, and headers, which was base_env+headers; i.e.
they are disjoint now.
* casing for all headers will lean to be `My-Header` style, which should help
with consistency. notable exceptions for cold only are FN_CALL_ID, FN_METHOD,
and FN_REQUEST_URL -- this is simply to avoid breakage, in either hot format
they appear as `Fn_call_id` still.
* removes FN_PARAM stuff
* updated doc with behavior

weird things left:

`Fn_call_id` e.g. isn't a correctly formatted http header, it should likely be
`Fn-Call-Id` but I wanted to live to fight another day on this one, it would
add some breakage.

examples to be posted of each format below

2ebc9c7480 hybrid mergy (#581)
* so it begins

* add clarification to /dequeue, change response to list to future proof

* Specify that runner endpoints are also under /v1

* Add a flag to choose operation mode (node type).

This is specified using the `FN_NODE_TYPE` environment variable. The
default is the existing behaviour, where the server supports all
operations (full API plus asynchronous and synchronous runners).

The additional modes are:
* API - the full API is available, but no functions are executed by the
  node. Async calls are placed into a message queue, and synchronous
  calls are not supported (invoking them results in an API error).
* Runner - only the invocation/route API is present. Asynchronous and
  synchronous invocation requests are supported, but asynchronous
  requests are placed onto the message queue, so might be handled by
  another runner.

* Add agent type and checks on Submit

* Sketch of a factored out data access abstraction for api/runner agents

* Fix tests, adding node/agent types to constructors

* Add tests for full, API, and runner server modes.

* Added atomic UpdateCall to datastore

* adds in server side endpoints

* Made ServerNodeType public because tests use it

* Made ServerNodeType public because tests use it

* fix test build

* add hybrid runner client

pretty simple go api client that covers surface area needed for hybrid,
returning structs from models that the agent can use directly. not exactly
sure where to put this, so put it in `/clients/hybrid` but maybe we should
make `/api/runner/client` or something and shove it in there. want to get
integration tests set up and use the real endpoints next and then wrap this up
in the DataAccessLayer stuff.

* gracefully handles errors from fn
* handles backoff & retry on 500s
* will add to existing spans for debuggo action

* minor fixes

* meh

caba9e0ec6 more strict configuration of routes
* idle_timeout max of 1h
* timeout max of 120s for sync, 1h for async
* max memory of 8GB
* do full route validation before call invocation
* ensure that idle_timeout >= timeout

we are now doing validation of updating route inside of the database
transaction, which is what we should have been doing all along really.
we need this behavior to ensure that the idle timeout is longer than the
timeout, among other benefits (like not updating the most recent version of
the existing struct and overwriting previous updates, yay). since we have
this, we can get rid of the weird skipZero behavior on validate too and
validate the real deal holyfield.

validating the route before making the call is handy so that we don't do weird
things like run a func that wants to use 300GB of RAM and run for 3 weeks.

337e962416 add pagination to all list endpoints
calls, apps, and routes listing were previously returning the entire data set,
which just won't scale. this adds pagination with cursoring forward to each of
these endpoints (see the [docs](docs/definitions.md)).

the patch is really mostly tests, shouldn't be that bad to pick through.

some blarble about implementation is in order:

calls are sorted by ids but allow searching within certain `created_at` ranges
(finally). this is because sorting by `created_at` isn't feasible when
combined with paging, as `created_at` is not guaranteed to be unique -- id's
are (eliding theoreticals). i.e. on a page boundary, if there are 200 calls
with the same `created_at`, providing a `cursor` of that `created_at` will
skip over the remaining N calls with that `created_at`.  also using id will be
better on the index anyway (well, less of them). yay having sortable ids! I
can't discern any issues doing this, as even if 200 calls have the same
created_at, they will have different ids, and the sort should allow paginating
them just fine. ids are also url safe, so the id works as the cursor value
just fine.

apps and routes are sorted by alphabetical order. as they aren't guaranteed to
be url safe, we are base64'ing them in the front end to a url safe format and
then returning them, and then base64 decoding them when we get them. this does
mean that they can be relatively large if the path/app is long, but if we
don't want to add ids then they were going to be pretty big anyway. a bonus
that this kind of obscures them. if somebody has better idea on formatting, by
all means.

notably, we are not using the sql paging facilities, and we are baking our own
based on cursors, which ends up being much more efficient for querying longer
lists of resources. this also should be easy to implement in other non-sql dbs
and the cursoring formats we can change on the fly since we are just exposing
them as opaque strings. the front end deals with the base64 / formatting, etc
and the back end is taking raw values (strfmt.DateTime or the id for calls).
the cursor that is being passed to/by the user is simply the last resource on the
previous page, so in theory we don't even need to return it, but it does make
it a little easier to use, also, cursor being blank on the last page depends
on page full-ness, so sometimes users will get a cursor when there are no
results on next page (1/N chance, and it's not really end of world -- actually
searching for the next thing would make things more complex). there are ample
tests for this behavior.

I've turned off all query parameters allowing `LIKE` queries on certain listing
endpoints, as we should not expose sql behavior through our API in the event
that we end up not using a sql db down the road. I think we should only allow
prefix matching, which sql can support as well as other types of databases
relatively cheaply, but this is not hooked up here as it didn't 'just work'
when I was fiddling with it (can add later, they're unnecessary and weren't
wired in before in front end).

* remove route listing across apps (unused)
* fix panic when doing `/app//`. this is prob possible for other types of
endpoints, out of scope here. added a guard in front of all endpoints for this
* adds `from_time` and `to_time` query parameters to calls, so you can e.g.
list the last hour of tasks. these are not required and default to
oldest/newest.
* hooked back up the datastore tests to the sql db, only run with sqlite atm,
but these are useful, added a lot to them too.
* added a bunch of tests to the front end, so pretty sure this all works now.
* added to swagger, we'll need to re-gen. also wrote some words about
pagination workings, I'm not sure how best to link to these, feedback welcome.
* not sure how we want to manage indexes, but we may need to add some (looking
at created_at, mostly)
* `?route` changed to `?path` in routes listing, to keep consistency with
everything else
* don't 404 when searching for calls where the route doesn't exist, just
return an empty list (it's a query param ffs)
