Fix several things:

(1) The changes to path learning in the two previous releases were poorly thought out,
and this version should remedy that by introducing PROBE. This is basically a kind of
ECHO request and is used to authenticate endpoints that are not learned via a valid
request/response pair. Thus we will still passively learn endpoints, but securely.

(2) Turns out there was a security oversight in _doHELLO() that could have permitted...
well... I'm not sure it was exploitable to do anything particularly interesting since
a bad identity would be discarded anyway, but fix it just the same.
