Previously, when the refresh-rate timer activated, and the thread from
the previous activation was still running, we would kill it and start
a new one. For low refresh rates, on slower machines, nodes, or network
connections, this could cause the update to never conclude.
Here we add a timeout-time to eth-watcher's config. If the refresh-rate
timer activates, and a thread exists, but hasn't been running for at
least the specified timeout-time yet, we simply take no action, and wait
for the next refresh timer.
Note that we opted for "at least timeout-time", instead of killing &
restarting directly after the specified timeout-time has passed, to
avoid having to handle an extra timer flow.
In the +on-load logic, we configure the timeout-time for existing
watchdogs as six times the refresh-rate. We want to set
azimuth-tracker's timeout-time to ~m30, and don't care much about other,
less-likely-to-be-active use cases of eth-watcher.
Instead of going purely off metadata, we now track the collections we're
listening to, and allow the user to remove collections from that list.
This allows us to remove/ignore collections, without mutilating group
assocations locally.

- finds resources & displays details using metadata-store
- supports creating new collections for groups
- supports creating new collections with new unmanaged group
- supports receiving invites for new (unmanaged) collections
Specifically, this commit removes the add action from the contact-view
and replaces it with a listener within contact-hook for additions
to groups. This means that when a ship is added to a group that the
contact-hook is watching, the ship is automatically sent an invite to
join that "managed group" from the contacts application. This also
includes the UI integration work on the management screen and settings
screen for working with the new group / permission structure.
Better subscription path API support. Should support us better moving
forward.
Note that this kills the server-hook. It will be replaced with a
link-view shortly.
