jackandClaude Opus 4.5 4091a30f10 BCH-01-002: Switch from pending files to disk quota management
The original PR introduced a PendingFileManager that held incoming files
in memory until user acceptance. However, this approach had issues:
1. No UI was implemented for users to accept/decline files
2. Files would expire after 5 minutes, losing legitimate transfers
3. The app only allows specific media types (photos, audio) that users
   explicitly choose to send, so manual acceptance adds friction

This commit replaces the pending file system with disk quota management:
- Auto-save files immediately (preserving original UX)
- Enforce 100 MB storage quota for incoming files
- Auto-delete oldest files when quota is exceeded
- Logs cleanup activity for visibility

This directly addresses the DoS vulnerability (disk exhaustion from
file spam) while maintaining good UX for legitimate transfers.

Test Harness Guide

This test suite uses an in-memory networking harness to make end-to-end and integration tests deterministic, fast, and race-free without touching production code.

In-Memory Bus

  • File: bitchatTests/Mocks/MockBLEService.swift
  • Registry/Adjacency: Global registry maps peerID to a MockBLEService instance; adjacency records simulated links between peers.
  • Setup: Call MockBLEService.resetTestBus() in setUp() to clear state between tests.
  • Topology: Use simulateConnectedPeer(_:) and simulateDisconnectedPeer(_:) to add/remove links. connectFullMesh() helpers in tests build larger topologies.
  • Handlers: Tests can observe data via messageDeliveryHandler (decoded BitchatMessage) and packetDeliveryHandler (raw BitchatPacket).
  • Deduplication: A thread-safe seenMessageIDs prevents duplicate deliveries during flooding/relays.

Broadcast Flooding

  • Flag: MockBLEService.autoFloodEnabled
  • Intent: When true, public broadcasts propagate across the entire connected component (ignores TTL for reach) while still deduping to prevent loops.
  • Usage: Enabled in Integration tests (setUp) to simulate large-network broadcast; disabled in E2E tests to keep routing explicit and verify TTL behavior (see PublicChatE2ETests.testZeroTTLNotRelayed).

Rehandshake Flow (Noise)

  • Why: The legacy NACK recovery path was removed; recovery now relies on Noise session rehandshake after decrypt failure or desync.
  • Manager: NoiseSessionManager manages per-peer sessions.
  • Pattern: On decrypt failure, proactively clear the local session and re-initiate a handshake. The peer accepts and replaces their session.
  • Test: IntegrationTests.testRehandshakeAfterDecryptionFailure
    • Corrupts ciphertext to induce a decrypt error.
    • Calls removeSession(for:) on the initiators manager before initiateHandshake(with:) to avoid alreadyEstablished.
    • Verifies encrypt/decrypt succeeds post-rehandshake.

Tips

  • Determinism: Add small async delays only where handler installation/topology changes could race the first send.
  • Scoping: Keep autoFloodEnabled toggled only within Integration tests; always reset in tearDown() to avoid cross-test contamination.
  • Direct vs Relay: Private messages target a specific peer when adjacent; otherwise they are surfaced to neighbors for relay and, if known, also delivered to the target.

Quick Start

  • Create nodes and connect them:
    • let svc = MockBLEService(); svc.myPeerID = "PEER1"
    • svc.simulateConnectedPeer("PEER2")
  • Observe messages:
    • svc.messageDeliveryHandler = { msg in /* asserts */ }
  • Enable broadcast flooding for Integration suites only:
    • MockBLEService.autoFloodEnabled = true
