Brad Fitzpatrick 40c98cd267 tstest/natlab/vmtest: deflake, de-strictify TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning
The test was asserting that a tailnet ping between two nodes traversed
DERP rather than going direct. But that wasn't really the point of the test,
and I kept forgetting ways that magicsock could find direct paths and
thus break this test.

So loosen it.

We really just want to see whether DERP worked at all and was used in the process
of getting a ping through, whether it was direct or not.

And that "tailscale debug derp" worked at all, which was what the bug
was about to begin with.

No need for all the "must be over DERP" stuff.

Brad Fitzpatrick 9107354488 tstest/natlab/vnet: send unsolicited IPv6 Router Advertisements
vnet only ever sent IPv6 RAs in response to a Router Solicitation. In
practice this meant gokrazy VMs running with a dual-stack LAN never
installed vnet's IPv6 default route: gokrazy brings the link up via
DHCPv4 and the kernel never emits an RS on its own under that init
path. Off-link IPv6 destinations like the fake DERP servers were
therefore unreachable from any gokrazy test node that also had v4
on the same interface. (Pure-v6 nodes happened to work because the
kernel sends an RS as part of v6-only autoconf.)

Fix this in two complementary ways:

  - Send an unsolicited RA every 5s to the link-local all-nodes group
    on every v6-enabled network. This matches what real routers do
    (RFC 4861 §6.2.1, MaxRtrAdvInterval; we use a much shorter
    interval than the spec's 200s default so short-lived tests don't
    have to wait).

  - Send a unicast RA to a newly-registered MAC as soon as a client
    first transmits on the wire. Without this the first periodic RA
    can land before any VM has connected and the next one isn't
    until the next tick, which can be longer than the test runs.

Factor the RA serialization out into buildIPv6RouterAdvertisement so
the solicited, periodic, and per-client paths all share one body.

Update TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning to use a dual-stack hard-NAT
builder and assert zero errors from DebugDERPRegion (instead of
filtering "over IPv6" errors as it had to before this change). The
new builder also sets TS_DEBUG_STRIP_ENDPOINTS=1 on tailscaled so
disco can't find a direct path: without endpoint stripping, the now-
working non-NATted IPv6 LAN gives the two hard-NAT'd nodes a direct
route, defeating the test's "must traverse DERP" assertion. (Hard
NAT alone was enough before this change because v6 routing was
broken.) Also update sendBetweenClients in the vnet unit tests to
tolerate the new on-register RA noise on its read path.

Brad FitzpatrickandNuke c91b7188e8 ipn/localapi,tstest/natlab: fix debug derp TLS check for sha256-raw CertName
serveDebugDERPRegion built its TLS config with
ServerName: cmp.Or(derpNode.CertName, derpNode.HostName), which for a
"sha256-raw:<hex>" CertName passed the raw fingerprint to Go's stock
verifier as a hostname; the handshake always failed with a hostname
mismatch. This is the second half of #15579; the first half (tailscaled
itself failing with "unexpected multiple certs presented") was fixed in

Extract a tlsConfigForNode helper that mirrors derphttp.Client.tlsClient
so that sha256-raw and domain-fronting CertName values are dispatched
to tlsdial.SetConfigExpectedCertHash and tlsdial.SetConfigExpectedCert
respectively, falling back to HostName when CertName is empty.

The core fix here was originally written by @imnuke in #19965; that PR
also added a unit test in ipn/localapi/debugderp_test.go which is
replaced in this commit by a new vmtest that exercises the whole stack:
vnet now serves a self-signed cert valid for each fake DERP node's
HostName and exposes its SHA-256 fingerprint, and vmtest grows a new
SelfSignedDERPCertPinning EnvOption that swaps the test DERP map's
nodes to CertName="sha256-raw:<hex>" with InsecureForTests cleared.
TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning then stands up two hard-NAT'd nodes, has
them communicate over DERP, and calls DebugDERPRegion on each. Before
this fix the test fails with the exact x509 hostname-mismatch error
from the original bug; after, it passes.
