vtnerd/Lee Clagett 2024 Q1/Q2 month 2 completion notes

[vtnerd]

I have completed the second block 160 hours of work. It took longer than anticipated - this will not happen for the last 160 hours.

This past month I primarily worked on remote scanning in LWS. This is a large feature that required a custom TCP protocol implemented in ASIO. Msgpack messages are sent bi-directionally to load balance user accounts across N machines.

I also fixed a bug in the P2P SSL PR within the monero daemon. This required re-engineering the asnyc_connect code, and thus a decent amount of additional work.

The bulk of "ZMQ Pub Sends" was completed in month 1, but follow up work was done this month.

I also had a few small bug fixes in monero core.
