Changelog for raft

API change: runRaftNode now requires the monad it runs in to provide an instance of the MonadRaftAsync and MonadRaftChan in the Raft.Monad module in lieu of the previously necessary MonadConc instance.
API change: Removed the MonadConc constraint on all example monad transformers and implemented inherited MonadRaftChan and MonadRaftAsync instances
API change: Removed the MonadConc const
API change: Renamed the old Raft.Monad module to Raft.Transtion and moved the RaftT monad transformer from Raft.hs to the Raft.Monad module
Improvement: Rework example monad RaftExampleT for simplicity

Feature: Client requests are now cached by the current leader such that duplicate client requests are not serviced
Bug Fix: Fix issue in concurrent timer not resetting properly when the timeout was set to values under 500ms
Feature: Client read requests can now query entries by index or range of indices
Improvement: Raft nodes now only write to disk if the state changes during handling of events

Bug Fix: Receiving all data from a socket in the RaftSocketT monad transformer RaftRecvX typeclass instances inducing a deadlock has been rewritten
Feature: A PostgreSQL backend has been added for storage of log entries

Each log entry is now linked by sha256 hash to the log entry immediately preceding it
Fixed bug where the last log entry was not being read from disk before starting the main event loop
Added quickcheck-state-machine tests for black-box testing of the raft-example client program
