The single validation module is split in multiple (simpler)
modules. In the process, we introduce one "validation worker" per
peer. This worker handle all the `New_head` and `New_branch`
advertised by a given peer. For so, it sends "fetching request" and
"validation request" to respectively the `Distributed_db` and and the
`Block_validator`. These two global workers are responsible of the
'fair' allocation of network and CPU ressources amongst the connected
'peers'.
This is a rewrite of the build system with `jbuilder`, with just a
minimal toplevel Makefile for backward compatibility.
This first patch preserves the project architecture, we only gain
proper dependencies handling and always up-to-date `.merlin` files.
A latter patch may split the project in smaller "sub-package",
i.e. multiple `.opam` files.
The embedded versions of the economic protocol are now compiled with
`jbuilder` instead of `tezos-protocol-compiler`, potentially allowing
proper inlining at the cost of slightly-less-stricter
sandboxing. Nevertheless, dynamically loaded protocol are still
compiled with the `tezos-protocol-compiler` and thus strictly
sandboxed ; and a CI rule also checks the proper sandboxing of
embedded protocols.

With this patch the economic protocol is now compiled as as
"functor-pack", parameterized over the environment. This will ease the
protocol reusability outside of the tezos source tree (e.g. for a
michelson Web IDE) and will allow proper unit testing of the economic
protocol.
This functorization allows to break the dependency of the
'tezos-protocol-compiler' on various '.mli' of the node, and hence
we don't need anymore the unusual compilation schema:
a.mli -> b.mli -> b.ml -> a.ml
where 'A' is linked after 'B' but 'a.mli' should still be compiled
before 'b.mli'. This will simplify a switch to 'ocp-build' or 'jbuiler'.
- introduced `test/utils/test_lib.inc.sh` to simplify usage of
sandboxed node/client in the testsuite
- it reuses code from `./script/{node,client}_lib.inc.sh`
- use `wait_for_the_node_to_be_ready` to properly wait for the node to
be launched rather to use a fexed delay
- `test_multinode.sh` now launch 8 nodes.
