v2 cover mesh: Fix Remote/Local dev key usage

As discussed at the Bluetooth SIG Mesh Working Group, this patch set locks down usage of Device Keys to nodes that have explicit permission to use them. This permission will typically be granted by the Provisioner (mesh network owner) in the form of Application access to the Device Key of the node that requests are directed to. This *includes* the access to a nodes local Config Server.

Usage Model:

DevKeySend(remote == false)
node.json is the only Device Key used. However, it is illegal for loopback messages (where DST == any of our element unicast addresses) so this call will return an immediate "Unauthorized" error in such a case.

DevKeySend(remote == true)
keyring Device Key matching the DST address is used, with no fallback to the node.json key. If the DST does not exist in the keyring, then an immediate "Unauthorized" error will be returned.

In the past, we would first try the Keyring, and automatically fallback to the node.json key, but this was a backdoor to always letting Apps modify their own Config Server. The daemon can't tell the difference between Client and Server opcodes, so this was always a and really not a very good guess.

DevKeyMessageReceived(local == true)
node.json (local) Device Key was used to decrypt this message, and message has full permission to change any model's states. This message is always received from an *external* node that knows our Device Key. (If an App wants to change it's own App controlled states, it already can).

DevKeyMessageReceived(local == false)
Keyring Device Key was used to decrypt this message, so it was a *remote* node's device key. This will most likely be a response to an App controlled Client model. However, if it is a Server message that changes a state, or requests the state value, the App should silently *reject* it... For that operation, the remote node needs to know *our* Device Key.

This differentiation is needed with received messages, because *any* message can be secured with a device key. But just as with the Config Client/Server, the *correct* device key must be used for any state changes and state requests. If a provisioner has an On/Off server for example, it might get an "Off" request from a remote node, but it should only execute the "Off" if it was secured with local Device Key... not the remote Device Key.

Likewise, when *responding* to legal Server Commands secured with local Device Keys, the App must respond with DevKeySend(remote == false), because that was the only key that would have been legal for the remote node to have used.

The "remote" parameter name for Send, and "local" name for Receive was deliberate as the "true" value in both cases is the more privledged form.

PATCH v2 1/3 mesh: Add local/remote bools to DevKey transactions

DevKey operations require authorization on the part of the applications making the requests. Messages to state changing Servers should use keys from the local Key Database to demonstrate authority.

PATCH v2 2/3 mesh: Use explicit Local vs Remote Device key usage

In reply to Brian Gix

When sending or receiving Device Key (privileged) mesh messages, the local vs remote device key must be specified. This allows Apps to specify Key Ring stored device keys, and sanity checks that the correct key exists before allowing the transmission. Loopback messages to local servers *must* use keys from the Key Ring to indicate privilege has been granted.

PATCH v2 3/3 mesh: Fix Key Ring permissions for local nodes

In reply to Brian Gix

We do *not* automatically create populated key rings for imported or joined nodes, but we also do not *forbid* any node from adding a key in it's possesion to the local key ring.
