About

P2PNet helps quickly build and facilitate peer-to-peer networking with an array of components for setting up your network. Initial peer discovery can be initiated in the LAN, and facilitated over a WAN utilizing various methods such as bootstrapping and IPv6 ICMP blasting. The PeerNetwork will be able to use a range of interoperable WAN and LAN discovery mechanisms to expand and grow the network, manage peer connections, and distribute data and information. Implementing the P2PNet library will make implementing peer-to-peer functionality in your application more seamless and integrated.

Bootstrap implementation, greater NetworkTask handling logic, and other misc improvements

-- PeerNetwork peer management
* Updated `LANDiscoveryChannelBase.cs` to assign `SourceOriginIdentifier` to new peers
* Enhanced `PeerNetwork.cs` with a method to retrieve peers by identifier
* Updated `PeerChannel.cs` and `PeerChannelBase.cs` so that IPeer is held in the base class as opposed to the derived class
-- Bootstrap
* Added identifier setting logic in `BootstrapChannel.cs` for `BootstrapServer`
* Introduced `IsActive` property in `BootstrapChannelBase.cs` to track if channel is actively communicating.
* Improved error handling in `BootstrapChannelBase.cs` with structured responses and swappable delegate.
-- NetworkTasks and related
* Refactored `ValidateNetworkTaskHash` to simplify task creation with lots of new methods (will ensure organization and consistency throughout implementation)
* Implemented `NetworkTaskTrustConfiguration` for managing task trust requirements in the TrustPolicy.PeerNetworkTrustPolicy section. This wraps a TaskType with a collection of TaskTrustParameters, which define the rules and permissions checked before executing a task or not.
* Modified `NetworkTaskHandler.cs` to process incoming tasks with origin info -- this uses a new struct NetworkTaskOriginInfo which has several constructor options for passing relavant information needed for the NetworkTaskTrustConfiguration class in the TrustPolicy section named NetworkTaskTrustSettings. To enqueue incoming NetworkTasks, the Enqueue method will need the NetworkTask -and- a NetworkTaskOriginInfo to be passed as params
