1affd03cca sources: reorder unsynchronised source status
In the source selection, check for the unsynchronized leap status after
getting sourcestats data. The unsynchronized source status is supposed
to indicate an unsynchronized source that is providing samples, not a
source which doesn't have any samples.

Also, fix the comment describing the status.

Fixes: 4c29f8888c ("sources: handle unsynchronized sources in selection")

b2dac47c82 ntp: avoid unneccessary replacements on refresh command
When the refresh command is issued, instead of trying to replace all
NTP sources as if they were unreachable or falsetickers, keep using the
current address if it is still returned by the resolver for the name.
This avoids unnecessary loss of measurements and switching to
potentially unreachable addresses.

5508b01bd8 cmdmon: switch serverstats to 64-bit integers
Update the serverstats response to use the new 64-bit integers.

Don't define a new value for the response as it already had an
incompatible change since the latest release (new fields added for
timestamp counters).

1eb8994c00 client: add -e option to indicate end of response
In a non-tty session with chronyc it is not possible to detect the
end of the response without relying on timeouts, or separate responses
to a repeated command if using the -c option.

Add -e option to end each response with a line containing a single dot.

cc706b50b9 nts: add client support for authentication with AES-128-GCM-SIV
If AES-128-GCM-SIV is available on the client, add it to the requested
algorithms in NTS-KE as the first (preferred) entry.

If supported on the server, it will make the cookies shorter, which
will get the length of NTP messages containing only one cookie below
200 octets. This should make NTS more reliable in networks where longer
NTP packets are filtered as a mitigation against amplification attacks
exploiting the ntpd mode 6/7 protocol.

070b4f69d0 ntp: add maxdelayquant option
Add a new test for maximum delay using a long-term estimate of a
p-quantile of the peer delay. If enabled, it replaces the
maxdelaydevratio test. It's main advantage is that it is not sensitive
to outliers corrupting the minimum delay.

As it can take a large number of samples for the estimate to reach the
expected value and adapt to a new value after a network change, the
option is recommended only for local networks with very short polling
intervals.

4c29f8888c sources: handle unsynchronized sources in selection
Allow sources to accumulate samples with the leap status set to not
synchronized. Define a new state for them to be ignored in the
selection. This is intended for sources that are never synchronized and
will be used only for stabilization.

eb9e6701fd ntp: allow replacement of sources specified by IP address
For sources specified by an IP address, keep the original address as the
source's name and pass it to the NCR instance. Allow the sources to go
through the replacement process if their address has changed.

This will be useful with NTS-KE negotiation.

The IP-based source names are now provided via cmdmon. This means
chronyc -n and -N can show two different addresses for a source.

28cf4acf13 cmdmon: limit reported clients by number of packets
Add a new field to the CLIENT_ACCESSES_BY_INDEX request to specify the
minimum number of NTP or cmdmon packets for a client to be reported.

Add -p option to the chronyc clients command to specify the threshold
(by default 0). This option can be used to minimize the number of cmdmon
requests when interested only in clients sending a large number
of requests.

should make it easier to find clients that send large number of requests
over short periods of time.

e7a254265f cmdmon: add reset command
The reset command drops all measurements and switches the reference to
the unsynchronised state. This command can help chronyd with recovery
when the measurements are known to be no longer valid or accurate, e.g.
due to moving the computer to a different network, or resuming the
computer from a low-power state (which resets the system clock).

a24d2713cd client: add option to print all sources
Add -a option to the sources and sourcestats commands to print all
sources, including those that don't have a resolved address yet. By
default, only sources that have a real address are printed for
compatibility. Remove the "210 Number of sources" messages to avoid
confusion. Also, modify the ntpdata command to always print only sources
with a resolved address.
