Add tstest/natlab/vmtest, a high-level framework for running multi-VM
integration tests with mixed OS types (gokrazy + Ubuntu/Debian cloud
images) connected via natlab's vnet virtual network.
The vmtest package provides:
- Env type that orchestrates vnet, QEMU processes, and agent connections
- OS image support (Gokrazy, Ubuntu2404, Debian12) with download/cache
- QEMU launch per OS type (microvm for gokrazy, q35+KVM for cloud)
- Cloud-init seed ISO generation with network-config for multi-NIC
- Cross-compilation of test binaries for cloud VMs
- Debug SSH NIC on cloud VMs for interactive debugging
- Test helpers: ApproveRoutes, HTTPGet, TailscalePing, DumpStatus,
WaitForPeerRoute, SSHExec
TTA enhancements (cmd/tta):
- Parameterize /up (accept-routes, advertise-routes, snat-subnet-routes)
- Add /set, /start-webserver, /http-get endpoints
- /http-get uses local.Client.UserDial for Tailscale-routed requests
- Fix /ping for non-gokrazy systems
TestSubnetRouter exercises a 3-VM subnet router scenario:
client (gokrazy) → subnet-router (Ubuntu, dual-NIC) → backend (gokrazy)
Verifies HTTP access to the backend webserver through the Tailscale
subnet route. Passes in ~30 seconds.

I omitted a lot of the min/max modernizers because they didn't
result in more clear code.
Some of it's older "for x := range 123".
Also: errors.AsType, any, fmt.Appendf, etc.

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'

There were a few places it could get wedged (notably the dial without
a timeout).
And add a knob for verbose debug logs.
And keep two idle connections always.

The natlab Test Agent (tta) still had its old log streaming hack in
place where it dialed out to anything on TCP port 124 and those logs
were streamed to the host running the tests. But we'd since added gokrazy
syslog streaming support, which made that redundant.
So remove all the port 124 stuff. And then make sure we log to stderr
so gokrazy logs it to syslog.
Also, keep the first 1MB of logs in memory in tta too, exported via
localhost:8034/logs for interactive debugging. That was very useful
during debugging when I added IPv6 support. (which is coming in future
PRs)

This adds a new NodeAgentClient type that can be used to
invoke the LocalAPI using the LocalClient instead of
handcrafted URLs. However, there are certain cases where
it does make sense for the node agent to provide more
functionality than whats possible with just the LocalClient,
as such it also exposes a http.Client to make requests directly.

And don't make guests under vnet/natlab upload to logcatcher,
as there won't be a valid cert anyway.
