test: add end-to-end testing framework (#5435)

Partial fix for #5291. For details, see [README.md](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/erik/e2e-tests/test/e2e/README.md) and [RFC-001](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/docs/rfc/rfc-001-end-to-end-testing.md). This only includes a single test case under `test/e2e/tests/`, as a proof of concept - additional test cases will be submitted separately. A randomized testnet generator will also be submitted separately, there a currently just a handful of static testnets under `test/e2e/networks/`. This will eventually replace the current P2P tests and run in CI.

+# End-to-End Tests
+
+Spins up and tests Tendermint networks in Docker Compose based on a testnet manifest. To run the CI testnet:
+
+```sh
+make docker
+make runner
+./build/runner -f networks/ci.toml
+```
+
+This creates and runs a testnet named `ci` under `networks/ci/` (determined by the manifest filename).
+
+## Testnet Manifests
+
+Testnets are specified as TOML manifests. For an example see [`networks/ci.toml`](networks/ci.toml), and for documentation see [`pkg/manifest.go`](pkg/manifest.go).
+
+## Test Stages
+
+The test runner has the following stages, which can also be executed explicitly by running `./build/runner -f <manifest> <stage>`:
+
+* `setup`: generates configuration files.
+
+* `start`: starts Docker containers.
+
+* `load`: generates a transaction load against the testnet nodes.
+
+* `perturb`: runs any requested perturbations (e.g. node restarts or network disconnects).
+
+* `wait`: waits for a few blocks to be produced, and for all nodes to catch up to it.
+
+* `test`: runs test cases in `tests/` against all nodes in a running testnet.
+
+* `stop`: stops Docker containers.
+
+* `cleanup`: removes configuration files and Docker containers/networks.
+
+* `logs`: outputs all node logs.
+
+## Tests
+
+Test cases are written as normal Go tests in `tests/`. They use a `testNode()` helper which executes each test as a parallel subtest for each node in the network.
+
+### Running Manual Tests
+
+To run tests manually, set the `E2E_MANIFEST` environment variable to the path of the testnet manifest (e.g. `networks/ci.toml`) and run them as normal, e.g.:
+
+```sh
+./build/runner -f networks/ci.toml start
+E2E_MANIFEST=networks/ci.toml go test -v ./tests/...
+```
+
+Optionally, `E2E_NODE` specifies the name of a single testnet node to test.
+
+These environment variables can also be specified in `tests/e2e_test.go` to run tests from an editor or IDE:
+
+```go
+func init() {
+	// This can be used to manually specify a testnet manifest and/or node to
+	// run tests against. The testnet must have been started by the runner first.
+	os.Setenv("E2E_MANIFEST", "networks/ci.toml")
+	os.Setenv("E2E_NODE", "validator01")
+}
+```
+
+### Debugging Failures
+
+If a command or test fails, the runner simply exits with an error message and non-zero status code. The testnet is left running with data in the testnet directory, and can be inspected with e.g. `docker ps`, `docker logs`, or `./build/runner -f <manifest> logs` or `tail`. To shut down and remove the testnet, run `./build/runner -f <manifest> cleanup`.
+
+## Enabling IPv6
+
+Docker does not enable IPv6 by default. To do so, enter the following in `daemon.json` (or in the Docker for Mac UI under Preferences → Docker Engine):
+
+```json
+{
+  "ipv6": true,
+  "fixed-cidr-v6": "2001:db8:1::/64"
+}
+```
