/**
 * Create the given peer at the specified host using the given
 * controller.  If the given controller is not running on the target
 * host, it should find or create a controller at the target host and
 * delegate creating the peer.  Explicit delegation paths can be setup
 * using 'GNUNET_TESTBED_controller_link'.  If no explicit delegation
 * path exists, a direct link with a subordinate controller is setup
 * for the first delegated peer to a particular host; the subordinate
 * controller is then destroyed once the last peer that was delegated
 * to the remote host is stopped.  This function is used in particular
 * if some other controller has already assigned a unique ID to the
 * peer.
 *
 * Creating the peer only creates the handle to manipulate and further
 * configure the peer; use "GNUNET_TESTBED_peer_start" and
 * "GNUNET_TESTBED_peer_stop" to actually start/stop the peer's
 * processes.
 *
 * Note that the given configuration will be adjusted by the
 * controller to avoid port/path conflicts with other peers.
 * The "final" configuration can be obtained using
 * 'GNUNET_TESTBED_peer_get_information'.
 *
 * @param unique_id unique ID for this peer
 * @param controller controller process to use
 * @param host host to run the peer on
 * @param cfg configuration to use for the peer
 * @return handle to the peer (actual startup will happen asynchronously)
