// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// TODO
//
// 1. the default tracking cookie expires in 1 year, but the persons are not
//    removed from the db - this means the database only grows - ideally the
//    database should be cleaned in registry_db_save() for both on-disk and
//    on-memory entries.
//
//    Cleanup:
//    i. Find all the PERSONs that have expired cookie
//    ii. For each of their PERSON_URLs:
//     - decrement the linked MACHINE links
//     - if the linked MACHINE has no other links, remove the linked MACHINE too
//     - remove the PERSON_URL
//
// 2. add protection to prevent abusing the registry by flooding it with
//    requests to fill the memory and crash it.
//
//    Possible protections:
//    - limit the number of URLs per person
//    - limit the number of URLs per machine
//    - limit the number of persons
//    - limit the number of machines
//    - [DONE] limit the size of URLs
//    - [DONE] limit the size of PERSON_URL names
//    - limit the number of requests that add data to the registry,
//      per client IP per hour
//
// 3. lower memory requirements
//
//    - embed avl structures directly into registry objects, instead of DICTIONARY
//      [DONE for PERSON_URLs, PENDING for MACHINE_URLs]
//    - store GUIDs in memory as UUID instead of char *
//    - do not track persons using the demo machines only
//      (i.e. start tracking them only when they access a non-demo machine)
//    - [DONE] do not track custom dashboards by default
