Typing problems fixes (#2271)
* Typing problem fixed: `process_block_header` passes `Bytes32()` to `state_root` of `BeaconBlockHeader`, which type is `Root`

* Typing problem fixed in `initialize_beacon_state_from_eth1`: `len` returns an `int` value, while `deposit_count=uint64` of `Eth1Data` has type `uint64`

* Typing problem fixed in `process_rewards_and_penalties`: `numerator` of type `int` passed to `weight` parameter of `get_flag_index_deltas`, which has type `uint64`

* Typing problem fixed in `process_attestation`; `False` passes as `crosslink_success` parameter of `PendingAttestation`, which has type `boolean`. `False` is an instance of `(python.)bool` and is not an instance of `(ssz.)boolean`

* Typing problem fixed: `shard_data_roots` of `ShardTransition` has type `List[Bytes32]`, but its elements are used as if they were `Root` values, e.g. in `process_chunk_challenge` method: passed to `data_root` of `CustodyChunkChallengeRecord` which has type `Root`

* Typing problem fixed in `process_custody_final_updates`: `index` has type `int`, while `validator_indices_in_records` has type `Set[ValidatorIndex]`, so tesing whether `index in validator_indices_in_records` can be risky, depending on implementation details. `ValidatorIndex(index) in validator_indices_in_records` is a safer variant.

* Typing problem fixed: `slashed` parameter of `pack_compact_validator` has type `(python.)bool`, however in `committee_to_compact_committee` a value of `(ssz.)boolean` is passed as a value of the parameter

* Typing problem fixed: `inactivity_scores` is a `List[uint64,...]`, while it is intialized/appended with values of `(python.)int` type

* fixed according to @protolambda suggestions

* changed types of _WEIGHT constants and appropriate variables/parameters, according to @protolambda suggestions

* revert code formatting back

* Introduced ZERO_ROOT according to @protolambda 's suggestion

* Reverted back to , according to @protolambda comments

Ethereum 2.0 Altair fork

Notice: This document is a work-in-progress for researchers and implementers.

Table of contents

Introduction

This document describes the process of the first upgrade of Ethereum 2.0: the Altair hard fork, introducing light client support and other improvements.

Configuration

Warning: this configuration is not definitive.

Name Value
ALTAIR_FORK_VERSION Version('0x01000000')
ALTAIR_FORK_SLOT Slot(0) TBD

Fork to Altair

Fork trigger

TBD. Social consensus, along with state conditions such as epoch boundary, finality, deposits, active validator count, etc. may be part of the decision process to trigger the fork. For now we assume the condition will be triggered at slot ALTAIR_FORK_SLOT, where ALTAIR_FORK_SLOT % SLOTS_PER_EPOCH == 0.

Upgrading the state

After process_slots of Phase 0 finishes, if state.slot == ALTAIR_FORK_SLOT, an irregular state change is made to upgrade to Altair.
