wireproto: implement basic frame reading and processing We just implemented support for writing frames. Now let's implement support for reading them. The bulk of the new code is for a class that maintains the state of a server. Essentially, you construct an instance, feed frames to it, and it tells you what you should do next. The design is inspired by the "sans I/O" movement and the reactor pattern. We don't want to perform I/O or any major blocking event during frame ingestion because this arbitrarily limits ways that server pieces can be implemented. For example, it makes it much harder to swap in an alternate implementation based on asyncio or do crazy things like have requests dispatch to other processes. We do still implement readframe() which does I/O. But it is decoupled from the server reactor. And important parsing of frame headers is a standalone function. So I/O is only needed to obtain frame data. Because testing server-side ingest is useful and difficult on running servers, we create a new "debugreflect" endpoint that will echo back to the client what was received and how it was interpreted. This could be useful for a server admin, someone implementing a client. But immediately, it is useful for testing: we're able to demonstrate that frames are parsed correctly and turned into requests to run commands without having to implement command dispatch on the server! In addition, we implement Python level unit tests for the reactor. This is vastly more efficient than sending requests to the "debugreflect" endpoint and vastly more powerful for advanced testing.
