In #8863 I replaced the threadpool with tokio tasks, but there was a
behaviour I missed regarding cancellation. Adding the JoinHandle wrapper
that triggers abort on drop should fix this.
Another change, any panics that occur in password hashing will be
propagated through the resume_unwind functionality.
Some tests were very slow and some tests occasionally stalled. This PR
improves some test performance and replaces the custom threadpool in
order to fix the stalling of tests.
## Problem
Despite making password hashing async, it can still take time away from
the network code.
## Summary of changes
Introduce a custom threadpool, inspired by rayon. Features:
### Fairness
Each task is tagged with it's endpoint ID. The more times we have seen
the endpoint, the more likely we are to skip the task if it comes up in
the queue. This is using a min-count-sketch estimator for the number of
times we have seen the endpoint, resetting it every 1000+ steps.
Since tasks are immediately rescheduled if they do not complete, the
worker could get stuck in a "always work available loop". To combat
this, we check the global queue every 61 steps to ensure all tasks
quickly get a worker assigned to them.
### Balanced
Using crossbeam_deque, like rayon does, we have workstealing out of the
box. I've tested it a fair amount and it seems to balance the workload
accordingly
