it's a bit to explain but this more or less adds some super hackzorz updates to the ib backend and some general backend api changes to all backends to support fqsn: fully qualified symbol names in effort to begin to support broker-agnostic derivative symbols.

I don't want to go into too too much detail about the hackery for ib (since this is all public) but for those that know the api let's just say this makes getting HFT data pretty smooth 馃弰馃徏

This is a pre-cursor to #93 and #289.

Oh right and this also include changes to data._sharedmem.py mostly for larger sizing for those users who want to test the larger data set history / graphics performance versus what's coming in #289 馃弰馃徏


UPDATE:

oh right i almost forgot this requires a tractor patch which adds a tractor.to_asyncio.LinkedTaskChanel.subscribe() so that we can have multiple tasks pull on the trio side of the inter-loop stream.


TODO (WIP list will fill out better with links later):

  • use the endpoint reco-ed by the ib_insync author instead of the change made in our fork...

This adds a new client manager-factory: `open_client_proxy()` which uses
the newer `tractor.to_asyncio.open_channel_from()` (and thus the
inter-loop-task-channel style) a `aio_client_method_relay()` and
a re-implemented `MethodProxy` wrapper to allow transparently calling
`asyncio` client methods from `trio` tasks. Use this proxy in the
history backfiller task and add a new (prototype)
`open_history_client()` which will be used in the new storage management
layer. Drop `get_client()` which was the portal wrapping equivalent of
the same proxy but with a one-task-per-call approach. Oh, and
`Client.bars()` can take `datetime`, so let's use it B)
To start we only have futes working but this allows both searching
and loading multiple expiries of the same instrument by specifying
different expiries with a `.<expiry>` suffix in the symbol key (eg.
`mnq.globex.20220617`). This also paves the way for options contracts
which will need something similar plus a strike property. This change
set also required a patch to `ib_insync` to allow retrieving multiple
"ambiguous" contracts from the `IB.reqContractDetailsAcync()` method,
see erdewit/ib_insync#454 for further discussion
since the approach here might change.

This patch also includes a lot of serious reworking of some `trio`-`asyncio`
integration to use the newer `tractor.to_asyncio.open_channel_from()`
api and use it (with a relay task) to open a persistent connection with
an in-actor `ib_insync` `Client` mostly for history requests.

Deats,
- annot the module with a `_infect_asyncio: bool` for `tractor` spawning
- add a futes venu list
- support ambiguous futes contracts lookups so that all expiries will
  show in search
- support both continuous and specific expiry fute contract
  qualification
- allow searching with "fqsn" keys
- don't crash on "data not found" errors in history requests
- move all quotes msg "topic-key" generation (which should now be
  a broker-specific fqsn) and per-contract quote processing into
  `normalize()`
- set the fqsn key in the symbol info init msg
- use `open_client_proxy()` in bars backfiller endpoint
- include expiry suffix in position update keys
Make the throttle error propagate through to `trio` again by adding
`dict`-msg support between the two loops such that errors can be
re-raised on the `trio` side. This is all integrated into the
`MethoProxy` and accompanying result relay task.

Further fix a longer standing issue where sometimes the `ib_insync`
order entry method will raise a weird assertion error because it detects
some internal order-id state issue.. Just ignore those and make relay
back an error to the ems in such cases.

Add a bunch of notes for todos surrounding data feed reset hackery.
Found an issue (that was predictably brushed aside XD) where the
`ib_insync.util.df()` helper was changing the timestamps on bars data to
be way off (probably a `pandas.Timestamp` timezone thing?).

Anyway, dropped all that (which will hopefully let us drop `pandas` as
a hard dep) and added a buncha timestamp checking as well as start/end
datetime return values using `pendulum` so that consumer code can know
which "slice" is output.

Also added some WIP code to work around "no history found" request
errors where instead now we try to increment backward another 200
seconds - not sure if this actually correct yet.
ib has a throttle limit for "hft" bars but contained in here is some
hackery using ``xdotool`` to reset data farms auto-magically B)

This copies the working script into the ib backend mod as a routine and
now uses `trio.run_process()` and calls into it from the `get_bars()`
history retriever and then waits for "data re-established" events to be
received from the client before making more history queries.

TL;DR summary of changes:
- relay ib's "system status" events (like for data farm statuses)
  as a new "event" msg that can be processed by registers of
  `Client.inline_errors()` (though we should probably make a new
  method for this).
- add `MethodProxy.status_event()` which allows a proxy user to register
  for a particular "system event" (as mentioned above), which puts
  a `trio.Event` entry in a small table can be set by an relay task if
  there are any detected waiters.
- start a "msg relay task" when opening the method proxy which does
  the event setting mentioned above in the background.
- drop the request error handling around the proxy creation, doesn't
  seem necessary any more now that we have better error propagation from
  `asyncio`.
- add event waiting logic around the data feed reset hackzorin.
- change the order relay task to only log system events for now (though
  we need to do some better parsing/logic to get tws-external order
  updates to work again..
As per erdewit/ib_insync#454 the more correct
way to do this is with `.reqContractDetailsAsync()` which we wrap with
`Client.con_deats()` and which works just as well. Further drop all the
`dict`-ifying that was being done in that method and instead always
return `ContractDetails` object in an fqsn-like explicitly keyed `dict`.
