Now that we're on our way to a (somewhat) serious beta release I think
it's about time to start de-noising the logging emissions. Since we're
trying out this approach of "stack layer oriented" log levels, I figured
this is a good time to move most of the "warnings" to what they should
be: cancellation monitoring status messages. The level is set to 16
which is just above our "runtime" level but just below the traditional
"info" level. I think this will be a decent approach since usually if
you're confused about why your `tractor` app is behaving unlike you
expect, it's 90% of the time going to be to do with cancellation or
error propagation. This this setup a user can specify the 'cancel' level
and see all the msgs pertaining to both actor and task-in-actor
cancellation mechanics.
Since we currently have no real "discovery protocol" between process
trees, the current naive approach is to check via a connect and drop to
see if a TCP server is bound to a particular address during root actor
startup. This was a historical decision and had no real grounding beyond
taking a simple approach to get something working when the project
was first started.
This is obviously problematic from an error handling perspective since
we need to be able to avoid such quick connect-and-drops from cancelling
an "arbiter"'s (registry actor's) channel-msg loop machinery (which
would propagate and cancel the actor).
For now we map this particular TCP error, which gets remapped by `trio`
as a `trio.BrokenResourceError` to our own internal `TransportClosed`
which is swallowed by channel message loop processing and indicates
a graceful teardown of the far end actor.
This begins the move to dropping support for `tractor.run()` which we
don't really need since the runtime is started (as it always has been)
from a new sub-task / nursery. Instead this introduces starting the
actor tree through a `open_root_actor()` async context manager which
we'll likely implicitly call (from the root) on the first use of an
actor nursery.
Drop `_actor._start_actor()` and factor its contents into this new api.
Make `run()` and `run_daemon()` use `open_root_actor()` until we decide
to remove them.
Relates to #168 and #177
