02ad987e24 control/controlbase: make the protocol version number selectable.
This is so that we can plumb our client capability version through
the protocol as the Noise version. The capability version increments
more frequently than strictly required (the Noise version only needs
to change when cryptographically-significant changes are made to
the protocol, whereas the capability version also indicates changes
in non-cryptographically-significant parts of the protocol), but this
gives us a safe pre-auth way to determine if the client supports
future protocol features, while still relying on Noise's strong
assurance that the client and server have agreed on the same version.

Currently, the server executes the same protocol regardless of the
version number, and just presents the version to the caller so they
can do capability-based things in the upper RPC protocol. In future,
we may add a ratchet to disallow obsolete protocols, or vary the
Noise handshake behavior based on requested version.

2c89b3a601 control/controlbase: make Conn.Write return consumed bytes
Currently `Write` returns the number of ciphertext bytes written.
According to the docs for io.Writer, Write should return the amount
of bytes consumed from the input.
```
// Write writes len(p) bytes from p to the underlying data stream.
// It returns the number of bytes written from p (0 <= n <= len(p))
// and any error encountered that caused the write to stop early.
// Write must return a non-nil error if it returns n < len(p).
// Write must not modify the slice data, even temporarily.
Write(p []byte) (n int, err error)
```

Fixes #4126

d5a7eabcd0 control/controlbase: enable asynchronous client handshaking.
With this change, the client can obtain the initial handshake message
separately from the rest of the handshake, for embedding into another
protocol. This enables things like RTT reduction by stuffing the
handshake initiation message into an HTTP header.

Similarly, the server API optionally accepts a pre-read Noise initiation
message, in addition to reading the message directly off a net.Conn.
