Butt2

[arj03]

Almost ready, need to do something about buttPost.

@staltz just to align. I'm not in a rush with this and ssbc/ssb-ebt#67. So I'll be happy to wait with this until you do the refactor of formats and encryption. I mostly have what I need here to test. Also I'd like to split this into another PR, there is a separate part of this that improves performance of encrypted messages for classic.

About the node 12 and 14 tests not working, I think it might be related to npm install never finishing:

npm WARN deprecated uuid@3.4.0: Please upgrade  to version 7 or higher.  Older versions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be problematic.

uuid comes from:

ssb-db2@4.1.2 /home/arj/dev/ssb-db2
└─┬ ssb-fixtures@3.0.4
  └─┬ pull-stream-util@0.1.2
    └─┬ request@2.88.2
      └── uuid@3.4.0

@arj03 Thanks! I'm actually not sure which way will be easier: merging this now, or resolving conflicts later. It might be complicated any way. If you're not blocked, then maybe let me try to do the format&encryption PR first, and then if resolving conflicts here is too hard, it's not going to be hard for me to write a new PR to add buttwoo using the new format&encryption API.

Oh yeah, that one is still a mystery. It actually does complete, if you would wait a long time (CI was set to maximum 10min). And it's not related to uuid, try running npm install --verbose and you'll see where it gets slow. It's related to the repos we moved from ssb-ngi-pointer to ssbc but I don't know why.
