Implement Noise Protocol Framework and peer ID rotation for enhanced security and privacy

This major update replaces the basic encryption with the Noise Protocol Framework
and adds ephemeral peer ID rotation for enhanced privacy.

Key Changes:

Security Infrastructure:
- Implemented Noise Protocol Framework (XX handshake pattern)
- End-to-end encryption with forward secrecy and identity hiding
- Session management with automatic rekey support
- Channel encryption with password-derived keys

Privacy Enhancements:
- Ephemeral peer ID rotation (5-15 minute random intervals)
- Persistent identity through public key fingerprints
- Favorites and verification persist across ID rotations
- Block list based on fingerprints, not ephemeral IDs

Core Components Added:
- NoiseEncryptionService: Main encryption service
- NoiseSession: Individual peer session management
- NoiseChannelEncryption: Password-protected channel support
- SecureIdentityStateManager: Persistent identity storage
- FingerprintView: Visual fingerprint verification UI

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed handshake storm with tie-breaker mechanism
- Fixed missing connect messages during peer rotation
- Fixed delivery ACK compression issues
- Fixed race conditions in message queue
- Fixed nickname resolution for rotated peer IDs

Testing:
- Comprehensive test suite for Noise implementation
- Security validator tests
- Channel encryption tests
- Identity persistence tests
- Rate limiter tests

Documentation:
- BRING_THE_NOISE.md: Technical implementation details
- Updated WHITEPAPER.md: Simplified and focused on core innovations
- Removed temporary debug documentation

The implementation maintains backward compatibility while significantly
improving security and privacy. All existing features (channels, private
messages, favorites, blocking) work seamlessly with the new system.

+# Bringing the Noise: Secure Communication in BitChat
+
+## Overview
+
+BitChat implements the Noise Protocol Framework for end-to-end encryption, providing forward secrecy, identity hiding, and cryptographic authentication. This document details our Swift implementation and its integration with BitChat's decentralized mesh network.
+
+## The Noise Protocol Framework
+
+### Why Noise?
+
+The Noise Protocol Framework offers:
+- **Forward Secrecy**: Past messages remain secure even if keys are compromised
+- **Identity Hiding**: Peer identities are encrypted during handshake
+- **Simplicity**: Clean, auditable protocol with minimal complexity
+- **Performance**: Efficient for resource-constrained mobile devices
+- **Flexibility**: Supports various handshake patterns
+
+### The XX Pattern
+
+BitChat uses the Noise XX pattern:
+```
+XX:
+  -> e
+  <- e, ee, s, es
+  -> s, se
+```
+
+This three-message pattern provides:
+- Mutual authentication
+- Identity encryption (identities revealed only after initial key exchange)
+- Resistance to key-compromise impersonation
+
+## Implementation Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+#### NoiseEncryptionService
+The main service managing all Noise operations:
+```swift
+class NoiseEncryptionService {
+    private let staticIdentityKey: Curve25519.KeyAgreement.PrivateKey
+    private let sessionManager: NoiseSessionManager
+    private let channelEncryption = NoiseChannelEncryption()
+}
+```
+
+#### NoiseSession
+Individual session state for each peer:
+```swift
+class NoiseSession {
+    private var handshakeState: NoiseHandshakeState?
+    private var sendCipher: NoiseCipherState?
+    private var receiveCipher: NoiseCipherState?
+    private let remoteStaticKey: Curve25519.KeyAgreement.PublicKey?
+}
+```
+
+#### NoiseSessionManager
+Thread-safe session management:
+```swift
+class NoiseSessionManager {
+    private var sessions: [String: NoiseSession] = [:]
+    private let sessionsQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "noise.sessions", attributes: .concurrent)
+}
+```
+
+### Handshake Flow
+
+1. **Initiator sends ephemeral key**
+   ```swift
+   let ephemeralKey = Curve25519.KeyAgreement.PrivateKey()
+   let message = ephemeralKey.publicKey.rawRepresentation
+   ```
+
+2. **Responder sends ephemeral + encrypted static**
+   ```swift
+   // Generate ephemeral, perform DH, encrypt static key
+   let encryptedStatic = encrypt(staticKey, using: sharedSecret)
+   ```
+
+3. **Initiator sends encrypted static**
+   ```swift
+   // Complete handshake, derive session keys
+   let (sendKey, recvKey) = deriveSessionKeys(transcript)
+   ```
+
+### Session Management
+
+Sessions are managed with automatic cleanup and rekey support:
+
+```swift
+// Session lookup by peer ID
+func getSession(for peerID: String) -> NoiseSession?
+
+// Automatic session removal on disconnect
+func removeSession(for peerID: String)
+
+// Rekey detection
+func getSessionsNeedingRekey() -> [(String, Bool)]
+```
+
+## Integration with BitChat
+
+### Peer ID Rotation
+
+Noise sessions persist across peer ID rotations through fingerprint mapping:
+
+```swift
+// Identity announcement after handshake
+struct NoiseIdentityAnnouncement {
+    let peerID: String
+    let publicKey: Data
+    let nickname: String
+    let previousPeerID: String?
+    let signature: Data
+}
+```
+
+### Message Encryption
+
+All messages are encrypted using established Noise sessions:
+
+```swift
+// Encrypt message
+let encrypted = try noiseService.encrypt(messageData, for: peerID)
+
+// Decrypt message  
+let decrypted = try noiseService.decrypt(encryptedData, from: peerID)
+```
+
+### Channel Encryption
+
+Password-protected channels use Noise for key distribution:
+
+```swift
+// Share channel key securely
+let keyPacket = createChannelKeyPacket(password: password, channel: channel)
+let encrypted = try encrypt(keyPacket, for: peerID)
+```
+
+## Security Properties
+
+### Forward Secrecy
+- Ephemeral keys are generated for each handshake
+- Past sessions cannot be decrypted with current keys
+- Automatic rekey after 1 hour or 10,000 messages
+
+### Authentication
+- Static keys provide long-term identity
+- Handshake ensures mutual authentication
+- MAC tags prevent message tampering
+
+### Privacy
+- Peer identities encrypted during handshake
+- Metadata minimization through padding
+- No persistent session identifiers
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Key Derivation
+```swift
+// HKDF for key derivation
+func hkdf(salt: Data, ikm: Data, info: Data, length: Int) -> Data
+
+// Derive channel keys with PBKDF2
+func deriveChannelKey(password: String, salt: Data) -> SymmetricKey
+```
+
+### Cryptographic Primitives
+- **DH**: X25519 (Curve25519)
+- **Cipher**: ChaChaPoly (AEAD)
+- **Hash**: SHA-256
+- **KDF**: HKDF-SHA256
+
+### Error Handling
+```swift
+enum NoiseError: Error {
+    case handshakeFailed
+    case invalidMessage
+    case sessionNotEstablished
+    case decryptionFailed
+}
+```
+
+## Performance Optimizations
+
+### Connection Pooling
+- Reuse established sessions
+- Lazy handshake initiation
+- Session caching with TTL
+
+### Message Batching
+- Combine small messages
+- Reduce encryption overhead
+- Optimize for BLE MTU
+
+### Memory Management
+- Bounded session cache
+- Automatic cleanup of stale sessions
+- Efficient key rotation
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### Post-Quantum Readiness
+- Hybrid handshake patterns
+- Kyber integration plans
+- Graceful algorithm migration
+
+### Advanced Features
+- Multi-device support
+- Session backup/restore
+- Group messaging primitives
+
+## Conclusion
+
+BitChat's Noise implementation provides encryption while maintaining the simplicity and performance required for a peer-to-peer messaging application. The protocol's elegant design ensures that people's communications remain private, authenticated, and forward-secure without sacrificing usability.

-# WiFi Direct Integration Plan for BitChat
-
-## Overview
-
-WiFi Direct enables peer-to-peer WiFi connections without requiring an access point, offering significantly higher bandwidth and range compared to Bluetooth Low Energy.
-
-### Key Specifications
-- **Range**: 100-200 meters (vs BLE's 10-30m)
-- **Speed**: 250+ Mbps (vs BLE's 1-3 Mbps)
-- **Power**: Higher consumption than BLE
-- **Platform Support**: 
-  - iOS: MultipeerConnectivity framework
-  - Android: WiFi P2P API
-  - macOS: Network.framework with Bonjour
-
-## Alternative Transport Technologies
-
-### Ultrasonic Communication
-- **What**: Uses sound waves above human hearing (>20kHz) to transmit data
-- **Range**: 1-10 meters typically
-- **Speed**: ~1-10 kbps
-- **Pros**: Works through thin walls, no radio interference, very low power
-- **Cons**: Limited range, sensitive to noise, low bandwidth
-- **Use case**: Secret communication in meetings, data transfer when radio is jammed
-
-### LoRa (Long Range)
-- **What**: Low-power, wide-area network protocol using sub-GHz frequencies
-- **Range**: 2-15 km in rural areas, 2-5 km in urban
-- **Speed**: 0.3-50 kbps
-- **Pros**: Incredible range, very low power, penetrates buildings well
-- **Cons**: Very low bandwidth, requires special hardware, regulated frequencies
-- **Use case**: Disaster relief, rural communities, sensor networks
-
-## Architecture Design
-
-### Transport Protocol Interface
-
-```swift
-protocol TransportProtocol {
-    var transportType: TransportType { get }
-    var isAvailable: Bool { get }
-    var currentPeers: [PeerInfo] { get }
-    
-    func startDiscovery()
-    func stopDiscovery()
-    func send(_ packet: BitchatPacket, to peer: PeerID?) 
-    func setDelegate(_ delegate: TransportDelegate)
-}
-
-enum TransportType {
-    case bluetooth
-    case wifiDirect
-    case ultrasonic  // future
-    case lora        // future
-}
-
-// Transport Manager to coordinate multiple transports
-class TransportManager {
-    private var transports: [TransportProtocol] = []
-    private var routingTable: [PeerID: TransportType] = [:]
-    
-    func sendOptimal(_ packet: BitchatPacket, to peer: PeerID?) {
-        // Choose best transport based on:
-        // 1. Message size
-        // 2. Battery level
-        // 3. Available transports
-        // 4. Peer capabilities
-    }
-}
-```
-
-## Implementation Phases
-
-### Phase 1: Abstract Transport Layer
-1. Create `TransportProtocol` interface
-2. Refactor `BluetoothMeshService` to implement protocol
-3. Create `TransportManager` to coordinate transports
-4. Update `ChatViewModel` to use transport abstraction
-
-### Phase 2: WiFi Direct Transport
-1. Create `WiFiDirectTransport` class
-2. iOS: Use MultipeerConnectivity framework
-3. macOS: Use Network.framework with Bonjour
-4. Handle transport handoff (BLE → WiFi when available)
-
-### Phase 3: Intelligent Routing
-1. Implement bandwidth detection
-2. Create routing algorithm:
-   - Small messages (< 1KB): Use BLE (lower power)
-   - Large messages/files: Use WiFi Direct
-   - Emergency/broadcast: Use all transports
-3. Add transport negotiation protocol
-
-### Phase 4: Advanced Features
-1. File transfer with resumption
-2. Video/audio streaming support
-3. Hybrid mesh (some nodes BLE-only, some WiFi-capable)
-4. Transport bonding (use multiple simultaneously)
-
-## Key Considerations
-
-### Battery Impact
-- WiFi Direct uses significantly more power than BLE
-- Only activate when:
-  - Large file transfer needed
-  - User explicitly enables
-  - Device is charging
-  - Battery > 50%
-
-### Discovery Strategy
-- Use BLE for initial discovery (low power)
-- Exchange WiFi Direct capabilities
-- Establish WiFi Direct only when needed
-- Fall back to BLE if WiFi fails
-
-### Security
-- Use same encryption (X25519 + AES-256-GCM)
-- Pin WiFi Direct connections with BLE-exchanged keys
-- Prevent WiFi Direct spoofing attacks
-
-### User Experience
-- Automatic transport selection
-- Visual indicator showing active transport
-- Manual override option
-- Seamless handoff between transports
-
-## Proposed File Structure
-
-```
-bitchat/
-├── Transports/
-│   ├── TransportProtocol.swift
-│   ├── TransportManager.swift
-│   ├── BluetoothTransport.swift  (refactored from BluetoothMeshService)
-│   ├── WiFiDirectTransport.swift  (new)
-│   └── TransportDelegate.swift
-├── Services/
-│   └── RoutingService.swift       (intelligent message routing)
-```
-
-## Benefits
-
-1. **10-100x faster** file transfers
-2. **Longer range** for fixed installations  
-3. **Video chat** capability
-4. **Backwards compatible** (BLE-only devices still work)
-5. **Future-proof** (easy to add more transports)
-
-## Implementation Notes
-
-### iOS MultipeerConnectivity Example
-
-```swift
-import MultipeerConnectivity
-
-class WiFiDirectTransport: NSObject, TransportProtocol {
-    private let serviceType = "bitchat-wifi"
-    private var peerID: MCPeerID
-    private var session: MCSession
-    private var advertiser: MCNearbyServiceAdvertiser
-    private var browser: MCNearbyServiceBrowser
-    
-    func startDiscovery() {
-        advertiser.startAdvertisingPeer()
-        browser.startBrowsingForPeers()
-    }
-}
-```
-
-### Message Size Routing Logic
-
-```swift
-func selectTransport(for message: Data) -> TransportType {
-    let size = message.count
-    let batteryLevel = BatteryOptimizer.shared.batteryLevel
-    
-    if size > 10_000 && batteryLevel > 0.5 {
-        return .wifiDirect
-    } else if size < 1_000 || batteryLevel < 0.3 {
-        return .bluetooth
-    } else {
-        // Medium size, good battery - use faster if available
-        return wifiAvailable ? .wifiDirect : .bluetooth
-    }
-}
-```
-
-## Testing Strategy
-
-1. **Unit Tests**: Mock transport implementations
-2. **Integration Tests**: BLE + WiFi handoff scenarios
-3. **Performance Tests**: Throughput comparison
-4. **Battery Tests**: Power consumption analysis
-5. **Field Tests**: Real-world range and reliability
-
-## Future Considerations
-
-- **Transport Plugins**: Allow third-party transport implementations
-- **SDN Integration**: Software-defined networking for complex topologies
-- **QoS**: Quality of Service for different message types
-- **Compression**: Different algorithms per transport
-- **Multi-path**: Send redundant copies over multiple transports

+ Post-Quantum Integration Plan:
+ 
+ 1. Wait for stable Swift PQ libraries (e.g., SwiftOQS)
+ 2. Implement Kyber768/1024 wrapper conforming to PostQuantumKeyExchange
+ 3. Update Noise handshake to support hybrid mode
+ 4. Add capability negotiation in protocol
+ 5. Implement gradual rollout with fallback
+ 
+ Challenges:
+ - Increased message sizes (Kyber768 public key ~1184 bytes)
+ - Performance impact on mobile devices
+ - Battery usage considerations
+ - Backward compatibility
+ - Library availability and maintenance
+ 
+ Timeline estimate:
+ - PQ libraries stable in Swift: 2025-2026
+ - Initial hybrid implementation: 2026
+ - Full deployment: 2027+

+    ✓ AEAD encryption (ChaCha20-Poly1305)
+    ✓ SHA-256 for hashing
+ 
+ 3. IMPLEMENTATION SECURITY
+    ✓ Message size limits to prevent DoS
+    ✓ Session timeout to limit exposure
+    ✓ Message count limits to prevent nonce reuse
+    ✓ Rate limiting for handshakes and messages
+    ✓ Input validation for all user data
+    ✓ Thread-safe operations
+ 
+ 4. NETWORK SECURITY
+    ✓ Messages padded to standard sizes for traffic analysis resistance
+    ✓ Cover traffic for anonymity
+    ✓ No metadata leakage in protocol
+    ✓ Fingerprint verification for identity
+ 
+ 5. EDGE CASES HANDLED
+    ✓ Incomplete handshakes timeout
+    ✓ Duplicate handshake messages ignored
+    ✓ Session renegotiation when needed
+    ✓ Graceful handling of decryption failures
+    ✓ Memory limits on message sizes
+ 
+ 6. FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS
+    - Implement post-quantum key exchange (when available)
+    - Add perfect forward secrecy for channel keys
+    - Implement key rotation for long-lived channels
+    - Add security event logging
+    - Implement secure key backup/restore
