描述

The goal is to improve privacy by making packet inspections a lot harder. In countries where cryptocurrencies or anonymous cryptocurrencies are illegal, this could be very important.

Ulttimately we could use Kovri or something similar, but this gets us 80% there for almost no performance penalty with what should just be very little code.

To preempt some comments about TLS security (which isn't great), this is only for privacy and we can support only a very small subset of known good cyphers.

研究方向
Implement TLS for peer to peer connections in Grin's networking layer. Likely requires modifying the existing P2P module (e.g., 'p2p/' or 'net/') to wrap TCP streams with TLS using a Rust TLS library such as rustls or native tls. The implementation should support a limited set of strong ciphersuites as mentioned in the issue. Ensure that the change is backward compatible and does not break existing non TLS connections.
