The integration tests spend a lot of time on some ancilliary actions,
which slows them down: generating certificates, adding users, and
waiting for things to happen.
To improve the performance of those actions, this patch:
- Makes (most) tests use plain passwords (-20%)
- Adds a certificate cache to reuse certs (-10%)
- Tightens the sleep loops (-5%)
In aggregate, this patch results in a speedup of the integration tests
of ~30-40%.
Note that some of the tests required adjusting the username, because
`chasquid-util user-add` would convert them to lowercase as per PRECIS
mapping.
Most integration tests depend on the $HOSTALIASES environment variable
being functional. That variable works on most systems, but not all. In
particular, systems with `systemd-resolved` can cause the variable to be
ignored.
This was reported by Alex Ellwein in
https://github.com/albertito/chasquid/issues/20.
This patch makes the affected tests to be skipped if $HOSTALIASES is not
working properly. It also removes unnecessary hosts files from tests
which don't need it, and documents this behaviour.
Thanks to Alex Ellwein and foxcpp@ for reporting and helping investigate
this issue!
Allows terminating chasquid via the network. Useful to trigger a restart
(if there is an init system to relaunch chasquid) and thus reload certificates.

Added tests, and adjusted shutdown sequence.
This makes it possible to manage chasquid logs using logrotate.
