Improve the public exports in two ways:
1. Inline re-exports into the docs of the module that re-exports them.
2. Separate public and private use statements
Recently we discussed a way to separate the public and private import
statements to make the code more clear and prevent `rustfmt` joining
them all together.
Separate public exports using a code block and `#[rustfmt::skip]`. Has
the nice advantage of reducing the number of `#[doc(inline)]` attributes
also.
1. Modules first, as they are part of the project's structure.
2. Private imports
3. Public re-exports (using `rustfmt::skip` to prevent merge)
Use the format
```rust
mod xyz;
mod abc;
use ...;
pub use {
...,
};
```

8eff4d0385 Remove private hex test macro (Tobin C. Harding)
Pull request description:
We have this macro in `hex-conservative` now, remove the version here.
This patch does not change the public API and only touches test code.

On our way to v1.0.0 we are defining a standard for our error types,
this includes:
- Uses the following derives (unless not possible, usually because of `io::Error`)
`#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]`
- Has `non_exhaustive` unless we really know we can commit to not adding
anything.
Furthermore, we are trying to make the codebase easy to read. Error code
is write-once-read-many (well it should be) so if we make all the error
code super uniform the users can flick to an error and quickly see what
it includes. In an effort to achieve this I have made up a style and
over recent times have change much of the error code to that new style,
this PR audits _all_ error types in the code base and enforces the
style, specifically:
- Is layed out: definition, [impl block], Display impl, error::Error impl, From impls
- `error::Error` impl matches on enum even if it returns `None` for all variants
- Display/Error impls import enum variants locally
- match uses *self and `ref e`
- error::Error variants that return `Some` come first, `None` after
Re: non_exhaustive
To make dev and review easier I have added `non_exhaustive` to _every_
error type. We can then remove it error by error as we see fit. This is
because it takes a bit of thinking to do and review where as this patch
should not take much brain power to review.
We would like the codebase to be optimized for readability not ease of
development, as such code that is write-once-read-many should not use
macros.
Currently we use the `impl_std_error` macro to implement
`std::error::Error` for struct error types. This makes the code harder
to read at a glance because one has to think what the macro does.
Remove the `impl_std_error` macro and write the code explicitly.
One encodes to a writer and decodes from a reader, most of the time in
the consensus `Encodable`/`Decodable` traits we use generic `R`/`W` and
variable `r`/`w` but there are other places that use other characters.
While touching these lines note also that there are a bunch of unneeded
`mut`s, I'm not sure why since usually between the compiler and the
linter `mut` is handled correctly.
Make implementations of `Encodable` and `Decodable` uniform by:
- Use R/W and r/w for trait and variable name
- Remove unneeded mut
Throughout the codebase we cast values to `u64` when constructing a
`VarInt`. We can make the code marginally cleaner by adding `From<T>`
impls for all unsigned integer types less than or equal to 64 bits.
Also allows us to (possibly unnecessarily) comment the cast in a single
place.
The `ServiceFlags` type is used by the p2p layer. It can live in the
`mod.rs` file of the `p2p` module. Done in preparation for removing the
`p2p::constants` module.
This is a straight code move, the `ServiceFlags` replaces the
current re-export.
The `PROTOCOL_VERSION` const is a p2p layer constant. It can live in the
`mod.rs` file of the `p2p` module.
This is a straight code move, the `PROTOCOL_VERSION` replaces the
current re-export.
The `network` module deals with data types and logic related to
internetworking bitcoind nodes, this is commonly referred to as the p2p
layer.
Rename the `network` module to `p2p` and fix all the paths.
