In v1.78, we started acquiring the GP lock when reading policy settings. This led to a deadlock during
Tailscale installation via Group Policy Software Installation because the GP engine holds the write lock
for the duration of policy processing, which in turn waits for the installation to complete, which in turn
waits for the service to enter the running state.
In this PR, we prevent the acquisition of GP locks (aka EnterCriticalPolicySection) during service startup
and update the Windows Registry-based util/syspolicy/source.PlatformPolicyStore to handle this failure
gracefully. The GP lock is somewhat optional; it’s safe to read policy settings without it, but acquiring
the lock is recommended when reading multiple values to prevent the Group Policy engine from modifying
settings mid-read and to avoid inconsistent results.

This defines a new syspolicy 'Hostname' and allows an IT administrator to override the value we normally read from os.Hostname(). This is particularly useful on Android and iOS devices, where the hostname we get from the OS is really just the device model (a platform restriction to prevent fingerprinting).
If we don't implement this, all devices on the customer's side will look like `google-pixel-7a-1`, `google-pixel-7a-2`, `google-pixel-7a-3`, etc. and it is not feasible for the customer to use the API or worse the admin console to manually fix these names.

These delays determine how soon syspolicy change callbacks are invoked after a policy setting is updated
in a policy source. For tests, we shorten these delays to minimize unnecessary wait times. This adjustment
only affects tests that subscribe to policy change notifications and modify policy settings after they have
already been set. Initial policy settings are always available immediately without delay.

In this PR, we implement (but do not use yet, pending #13727 review) a syspolicy/source.Store
that reads policy settings from environment variables. It converts a CamelCase setting.Key,
such as AuthKey or ExitNodeID, to a SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE, TS_-prefixed environment
variable name, such as TS_AUTH_KEY and TS_EXIT_NODE_ID. It then looks up the variable
and attempts to parse it according to the expected value type. If the environment variable
is not set, the policy setting is considered not configured in this store (the syspolicy package
will still read it from other sources). Similarly, if the environment variable has an invalid value
for the setting type, it won't be used (though the reported/logged error will differ).

The AddSNATRuleForDst rule was adding a new rule each time it was called including:
- if a rule already existed
- if a rule matching the destination, but with different desired source already existed
This was causing issues especially for the in-progress egress HA proxies work,
where the rules are now refreshed more frequently, so more redundant rules
were being created.
This change:
- only creates the rule if it doesn't already exist
- if a rule for the same dst, but different source is found, delete it
- also ensures that egress proxies refresh firewall rules
if the node's tailnet IP changes

* cmd/containerboot,kube,util/linuxfw: configure kube egress proxies to route to 1+ tailnet targets
This commit is first part of the work to allow running multiple
replicas of the Kubernetes operator egress proxies per tailnet service +
to allow exposing multiple tailnet services via each proxy replica.
This expands the existing iptables/nftables-based proxy configuration
mechanism.
A proxy can now be configured to route to one or more tailnet targets
via a (mounted) config file that, for each tailnet target, specifies:
- the target's tailnet IP or FQDN
- mappings of container ports to which cluster workloads will send traffic to
tailnet target ports where the traffic should be forwarded.
Example configfile contents:
{
"some-svc": {"tailnetTarget":{"fqdn":"foo.tailnetxyz.ts.net","ports"{"tcp:4006:80":{"protocol":"tcp","matchPort":4006,"targetPort":80},"tcp:4007:443":{"protocol":"tcp","matchPort":4007,"targetPort":443}}}}
}
A proxy that is configured with this config file will configure firewall rules
to route cluster traffic to the tailnet targets. It will then watch the config file
for updates as well as monitor relevant netmap updates and reconfigure firewall
as needed.
This adds a bunch of new iptables/nftables functionality to make it easier to dynamically update
the firewall rules without needing to restart the proxy Pod as well as to make
it easier to debug/understand the rules:
- for iptables, each portmapping is a DNAT rule with a comment pointing
at the 'service',i.e:
-A PREROUTING ! -i tailscale0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 4006 -m comment --comment "some-svc:tcp:4006 -> tcp:80" -j DNAT --to-destination 100.64.1.18:80
Additionally there is a SNAT rule for each tailnet target, to mask the source address.
- for nftables, a separate prerouting chain is created for each tailnet target
and all the portmapping rules are placed in that chain. This makes it easier
to look up rules and delete services when no longer needed.
(nftables allows hooking a custom chain to a prerouting hook, so no extra work
is needed to ensure that the rules in the service chains are evaluated).
The next steps will be to get the Kubernetes Operator to generate
the configfile and ensure it is mounted to the relevant proxy nodes.

When the desired netfilter mode was unset, we would always try
to use the `iptables` binary. In such cases if iptables was not found,
tailscaled would just crash as seen in #13440. To work around this, in those
cases check if the `iptables` binary even exists and if it doesn't fall back
to the nftables implementation.
Verified that it works on stock Ubuntu 24.04.

We also include an internal package that tracks and reports policy usage metrics when a policy setting
is read from a store. Initially, it will be used only on Windows and Android, as macOS, iOS, and tvOS
report their own metrics. However, we plan to use it across all platforms eventually.

We have several checked type assertions to *types.Named in both cmd/cloner and cmd/viewer.
As Go 1.23 updates the go/types package to produce Alias type nodes for type aliases,
these type assertions no longer work as expected unless the new behavior is disabled
with gotypesalias=0.
In this PR, we add codegen.NamedTypeOf(t types.Type), which functions like t.(*types.Named)
but also unrolls type aliases. We then use it in place of type assertions in the cmd/cloner and
cmd/viewer packages where appropriate.
We also update type switches to include *types.Alias alongside *types.Named in relevant cases,
remove *types.Struct cases when switching on types.Type.Underlying and update the tests
with more cases where type aliases can be used.

Go 1.23 updates the go/types package to produce Alias type nodes for type aliases, unless disabled with gotypesalias=0.

In this PR, we update codegen.LookupMethod to perform method lookup on the right-hand side of the alias declaration
and clearly switch on the supported type nodes types. We also improve support for various edge cases, such as when an alias
is used as a type parameter constraint, and add tests for the LookupMethod function.
Additionally, we update cmd/viewer/tests to include types with aliases used in type fields and generic type constraints.
