Integrate peer-based retention logic with distributed storage #6

@veryCrunchy

Description

@veryCrunchy

Design and implement Rust logic for peer nodes to temporarily retain (pin/cache) encrypted records for other nodes during downtime. This logic should:

  • Detect when a peer node goes offline, identify its records for retention.
  • Pin/copy relevant records to local storage (using the fetch/pin interfaces).
  • Track retention windows and unpin after expiry or when owner returns.
  • Accept and verify signed requests for early deletion from owner nodes.
  • Provide status info on which peer is retaining which records.

Implementation Suggestions:

  • Build a RetentionManager struct/module.
  • Integrate with async liveness monitoring (e.g., using tokio).
  • Use event-driven approach: on peer-down, trigger retention; on peer-up, cleanup.
  • Ensure all actions are signed and auditable.
  • Add integration tests for peer-down/up and data lifecycle.
