Avery Pennarun a92b9647c5 wgengine/bench: speed test for channels, sockets, and wireguard-go.
This tries to generate traffic at a rate that will saturate the
receiver, without overdoing it, even in the event of packet loss. It's
unrealistically more aggressive than TCP (which will back off quickly
in case of packet loss) but less silly than a blind test that just
generates packets as fast as it can (which can cause all the CPU to be
absorbed by the transmitter, giving an incorrect impression of how much
capacity the total system has).

Initial indications are that a syscall about every 10 packets (TCP bulk
delivery) is roughly the same speed as sending every packet through a
channel. A syscall per packet is about 5x-10x slower than that.

The whole tailscale wireguard-go + magicsock + packet filter
combination is about 4x slower again, which is better than I thought
we'd do, but probably has room for improvement.

Note that in "full" tailscale, there is also a tundev read/write for
every packet, effectively doubling the syscall overhead per packet.

Given these numbers, it seems like read/write syscalls are only 25-40%
of the total CPU time used in tailscale proper, so we do have
significant non-syscall optimization work to do too.

Sample output:

David Anderson bc4381447f net/tstun: return the real interface name at device creation.
This is usually the same as the requested interface, but on some
unixes can vary based on device number allocation, and on Windows
it's the GUID instead of the pretty name, since everything relating
to configuration wants the GUID.
