This PR fundamentally restructures the EasyTier GUI, introducing support for service mode and remote mode, transforming it from a simple desktop application into a powerful network management terminal. This change allows users to persistently run the EasyTier core as a background service or remotely manage multiple EasyTier instances, greatly improving deployment flexibility and manageability.
This change introduces a major refactoring of the RPC service layer to improve modularity, unify the API, and simplify the overall architecture.
Key changes:
- Replaced per-network-instance RPC services with a single global RPC server, reducing resource usage and simplifying management.
- All clients (CLI, Web UI, etc.) now interact with EasyTier core through a unified RPC entrypoint, enabling consistent authentication and control.
- RPC implementation logic has been moved to `easytier/src/rpc_service/` and organized by functionality (e.g., `instance_manage.rs`, `peer_manage.rs`, `config.rs`) for better maintainability.
- Standardized Protobuf API definitions under `easytier/src/proto/` with an `api_` prefix (e.g., `cli.proto` → `api_instance.proto`) to provide a consistent interface.
- CLI commands now require explicit `--instance-id` or `--instance-name` when multiple network instances are running; the parameter is optional when only one instance exists.
BREAKING CHANGE:
RPC portal configuration (`rpc_portal` and `rpc_portal_whitelist`) has been removed from per-instance configs and the Web UI. The RPC listen address must now be specified globally via the `--rpc-portal` command-line flag or the `ET_RPC_PORTAL` environment variable, as there is only one RPC service for the entire application.

QUIC proxy works like kcp proxy, it can proxy TCP streams and transfer data with QUIC.
QUIC has better congestion algorithm (BBR) for network with both high loss rate and high bandwidth.
QUIC proxy can be enabled by passing `--enable-quic-proxy` to easytier in the client side. The proxy status can be viewed by `easytier-cli proxy`.
- **fix deadlock in ospf route introducd by #958 **
- **use random peer id for foreign network entry, because ospf route algo need peer id change after peer info version reset. this may interfere route propagation and cause node residual**
- **allow multiple nodes broadcast same network ranges for subnet proxy**
- **bump version to v2.3.2**
Some devices have ipv6 but don't allow input connection, this patch add hole punching for these devices.
- **add v6 hole punch msg to udp tunnel**
- **send hole punch packet when do ipv6 direct connect**
also some improvements:
1. add magic dns option in gui.
2. allow icmp proxy fail on android
3. when no_tun is enabled, android do not start vpn service

This patch implements:
1. A dns server that handles .et.net. zone in local and forward all other queries to system dns server.
2. A dns server instance which is a singleton in one machine, using one specific tcp port to be exclusive with each other. this instance is responsible for config system dns and run the dns server to handle dns queries.
3. A dns client instance that all easytier instance will run one, this instance will try to connect to dns server instance, and update the dns record in the dns server instance.
this pr only implements the system config for windows. linux & mac will do later.
* support ipv6 stun
* show interface and public ip in cli node info
* direct conn should keep trying unless already direct connected
* peer should use conn with smallest latency
* deprecate ipv6_listener, use -l instead
