(*health.Tracker).CurrentState() returns an empty state when there are no client-side
warnables, even when there are control-health messages, which is incorrect.
This fixes it.

This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.
A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---
The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.
The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".
This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.
Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:
> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.
It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.
In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.
Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.
The source file changes were purely mechanical with:
git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

Before synctest, timers was needed to allow the events to flow into the
test bus. There is still a timer, but this one is not derived from the
test deadline and it is mostly arbitrary as synctest will render it
practically non-existent.
With this approach, tests that do not need to test for the absence of
events do not rely on synctest.

A recent change (009d702adf) introduced a deadlock where the
/machine/update-health network request to report the client's health
status update to the control plane was moved to being synchronous
within the eventbus's pump machinery.
I started to instead make the health reporting be async, but then we
realized in the three years since we added that, it's barely been used
and doesn't pay for itself, for how many HTTP requests it makes.
Instead, delete it all and replace it with a c2n handler, which
provides much more helpful information.

We already present a health warning about this, but it is easy to miss
on a server when blackholing traffic makes it unreachable.
In addition to a health warning, present a risk message when exit node
is enabled.
Example:
```
$ tailscale up --exit-node=lizard
The following issues on your machine will likely make usage of exit nodes impossible:
- interface "ens4" has strict reverse-path filtering enabled
- interface "tailscale0" has strict reverse-path filtering enabled
Please set rp_filter=2 instead of rp_filter=1; see https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/issues/3310
To skip this warning, use --accept-risk=linux-strict-rp-filter

Previously we were depending on the GUI(s) to do it.
By doing it in tailscaled, GUIs can be simplified and be
guaranteed to render consistent results.
If warnable A depends on warnable B, if both A & B are unhealhy, only
B will be shown to the GUI as unhealthy. Once B clears up, only then
will A be presented as unhealthy.

High severity health warning = a system notification will appear, which can be quite disruptive to the user and cause unnecessary concern in the event of a temporary network issue.
Per design decision (@sonovawolf), the severity of all warnings but "network is down" should be tuned down to medium/low. ImpactsConnectivity should be set, to change the icon to an exclamation mark in some cases, but without a notification bubble.
I also tweaked the messaging for update-available, to reflect how each platform gets updates in different ways.

We added some Warnables for DERP failure situations, but their Text currently spits out the DERP region ID ("10") in the UI, which is super ugly. It would be better to provide the RegionName of the DERP region that is failing. We can do so by storing a reference to the last-known DERP map in the health package whenever we fetch one, and using it when generating the notification text.
This way, the following message...
> Tailscale could not connect to the relay server '10'. The server might be temporarily unavailable, or your Internet connection might be down.
becomes:
> Tailscale could not connect to the 'Seattle' relay server. The server might be temporarily unavailable, or your Internet connection might be down.
which is a lot more user-friendly.

Updates tailscale/tailscale#4136
This PR is the first round of work to move from encoding health warnings as strings and use structured data instead. The current health package revolves around the idea of Subsystems. Each subsystem can have (or not have) a Go error associated with it. The overall health of the backend is given by the concatenation of all these errors.
This PR polishes the concept of Warnable introduced by @bradfitz a few weeks ago. Each Warnable is a component of the backend (for instance, things like 'dns' or 'magicsock' are Warnables). Each Warnable has a unique identifying code. A Warnable is an entity we can warn the user about, by setting (or unsetting) a WarningState for it. Warnables have:
- an identifying Code, so that the GUI can track them as their WarningStates come and go
- a Title, which the GUIs can use to tell the user what component of the backend is broken
- a Text, which is a function that is called with a set of Args to generate a more detailed error message to explain the unhappy state
Additionally, this PR also begins to send Warnables and their WarningStates through LocalAPI to the clients, using ipn.Notify messages. An ipn.Notify is only issued when a warning is added or removed from the Tracker.
In a next PR, we'll get rid of subsystems entirely, and we'll start using structured warnings for all errors affecting the backend functionality.

In prep for making health warnings rich objects with metadata rather
than a bunch of strings, start moving it all into the same place.
We'll still ultimately need the stringified form for the CLI and
LocalAPI for compatibility but we'll next convert all these warnings
into Warnables that have severity levels and such, and legacy
stringification will just be something each Warnable thing can do.
