fix an internal error in advanced_tls.test. Previous check is to check against the prefix of the ServerName, which might be different in various environments. We'd better not rely on checking that.
edsBalancer (the old xds balancer) was in `package balancer`, one level above the eds implementation. It's a thin wrapper of the eds impl (and fallback in the future).
This change moves the thin wrapper to `package edsbalancer`, and also renames some structs.
Performance benchmarks can be found below. Obviously, a 8 KiB
request/response is tailored to showcase this improvement as this is
where codec buffer reuse shines, but I've run other benchmarks too (like
1-byte requests and responses) and there's no discernable impact on
performance.
We do not allow reuse of buffers when stat handlers or binlogs are
turned on. This is because those two may need access to the data and
payload even after the data has been written to the wire. In such cases,
we never return the data back to the pool.
A buffer reuse threshold of 1 KiB was determined after several
experiments. There's diminished returns when buffer reuse is enabled for
smaller messages (actually, a negative impact).

Simplified the tests by only testing what is required and faking out
whatever can be faked out.
Also added a fakexds.Server implementation. Will switch other users of
the existing fakeserver implementation after this PR is merged.
Changes to "xds_server" field in bootstrap file:
1. Field name is changed "xds_servers" (plural).
2. Field value should be a list of objects instead of a single object.
For now, we can ignore all entries except the first one. In the future, we will add support for falling back to a secondary server when the primary is not reachable.
The real test relies on req chan to know when the fake xds server
receives the request. Without this, req chan may unblock for the ack,
before the real watch handler is ready.
Although the existing code wasn't causing a deadlock or causing
goroutines to hang forever, this is cleaner and prevents any such thing
from happening in the future.
Small refactor of tests:
- Add a channel to remoteBalancer on which to send received stats messages
- Change runAndGetStats to runAndCheckStats to allow for faster successful test
runs (no longer need to sleep for one whole second per test).
- Remove redundant leak check from runAndCheckStats, otherwise excess load
report messages not read from the channel will result in an infinite loop.
- Add String method to rpcStats to avoid data race between merging and printing.
The client will send a request with version/nonce after receiving a
response, to ack/nack.
Ack versions for different xds types are independent.
Some other changes
- merge sendRequests to one shared function, with fields for version/nonce
- deleted enum for xds types, and always use const URL string
