The info API is for other programs on the host, and on unix the only
setting between "the user nebula runs as" and "everyone" was a manual
chgrp that the next bind undid; on windows it was not served at all,
because which accounts a pipe admits had not been decided. The control
socket's `group` decides it, and the info API takes the same key.
- `local_api.info.group`: the socket is handed to the group at 0660
unless `socket_mode` says otherwise, and a mode that gives a named
group nothing is refused with the mode that would
- windows: served on a named pipe, the group an ACE on it as on the
control pipe; the e2e test's helpers dial unix sockets, so it still
skips there
- a changed group or mode on a reload is applied to the socket in place

Build slackhq/nebula#1821 ("who is this vpn address?" over a local
HTTP+JSON socket) on the command registry, so the lookup is one command
on every surface and the socket is one more local API.
identity
- `identity [-address <vpn addr>[:port]]`: no address reports this node;
with one, this node or the peer behind an established tunnel
- Certificate fields only: name, vpn addresses, networks, unsafe
networks, groups, fingerprint, issuer, validity, cert version; a peer's
fingerprint is the one nebula computed when it verified the cert
- Port accepted and stripped, 4in6 unmapped, so a RemoteAddr passes
straight through
- No tunnel is a commands.NotFound; an empty -address is refused
- Lighthouse TXT lookup shares the owner and peer lookups, keeps answering
with the initiating certificate, and no longer panics without a default cert
- Served on ssh and nebula ctl too
Info API
- Off until `local_api.info.enabled` with `socket` and optional quoted
octal `socket_mode` (default "0600"); nothing derived
- Serves commands declaring Command.Identity plus help; others 403 naming
their surfaces. TestInfoAPISurface pins the set to identity
- GET /v1 is the schema; GET /v1/<cmd>?<flag>=<value> runs one; body is
the -json rendering via commands.Render; commands.PresentationFormat
reads json/pretty from the query the way a line is read
- 400 commands.ParamError, 403 commands.WithheldError (what Resolve now
returns for a withheld name, so help and dispatch type-check it too),
404 NotFound or unknown, 500 Run error, refusal with no reason, or
recovered panic with no detail; no redirects; every miss is JSON
- listen takes a mode: bind under umask 0077 then chmod; "0660" plus a
searchable dir opens it to a group
- The chmod, at bind and on a mode-only reload, goes through chmodSocket,
which never follows a link: a user who can write the socket's directory
could otherwise swap the node for a link and have a root daemon put
0660 or 0666 on any file. Only a socket we own is chmoded. On linux the
node is held open O_PATH|O_NOFOLLOW, checked by fstat, and chmoded
through /proc/self/fd, so the check and the chmod land on one inode;
fchmodat2 is the fallback without /proc. On darwin and the BSDs it is
an Lstat check and fchmodat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW). clearStale Lstats
too, so a dangling link is refused rather than followed by bind on
darwin
- One endpoint type owns bind under mutex, bind-before-release move,
context watch and stop/unlink; each server supplies what it serves
- Reloadable through the same reconcile shape as the control socket:
mode applied in place, unparsable section keeps what runs, control
socket path refused by name
- Wire returns Endpoints{Control, Info} with one Stop
- Windows unsupported for now (a pipe has no mode); warned once
Tests: identity lookups and shapes; API filter, status codes, panic
recovery, socket mode, rebind, cancellation; config parsing incl. bare
0660; Wire transitions; e2e of two nebulas with the info API resolving
the peer by address and port, through shared test.HTTPDo/HTTPGet helpers.
Goldens gain identity.

Add support for accessing the previously ssh-only debug commands via
`nebula ctl <command>.`
- unix socket (named pipe on windows) for communication
- sockets scoped to the user + an optional group
- in cmd/nebula and cmd/nebula-service, but not nebula.Main

* examples: set socket buffers and raise tun tx_queue
* examples: use the default tcp max window for socket buffers
* examples: note buffers are linux only, clarify tx_queue default
* tun: default tx_queue to 5000
* add IPv6 reject packet generation (ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable and TCP RST)
* use ICMPv6 code 1 (administratively prohibited) and cap body at 1000 bytes
* cleanup, use ICMP error code 13 for ipv4
* better docs
* cleanup
* add sshd.sandbox_dir config option
Sanitize SSH profile paths (ssh.go:514,683,719) — restrict os.Create(a[0]) to a safe directory.
Add a config option in the config file to specify the sandbox directory. For backwards compatibility, if the config is not specified, keep the current behavior.
* update default and example
* use os.TempDir() for sshd.sandbox_dir default
* split sandbox path validation into separate conditionals
Separate the combined && check in sshSanitizeFilePath into two distinct
conditionals with specific error messages: one for paths resolving to the
sandbox directory itself, and one for paths outside the sandbox.

* fix: trim leading zeros from p256 signature swap result
bigmod.Nat.Bytes() returns fixed-size 32-byte slices, but ASN.1 INTEGER
parsing strips leading zeros. This caused a flaky test failure (~1/256
chance) when the S value's high byte was zero.

- Accept certs signed by trusted CAs
- Username must match the cert principal if set
- Any username can be used if cert principal is empty
- Don't allow removed pubkeys/CAs to be used after reload
