* Re-org internal descriptor `CanonicalDesc` as `PivotArc`
why:
Despite its name, `CanonicalDesc` contained a cursor arc (or leg) from
the base tree with a designated block (or Header) on its arc members
(aka blocks.) The type is used more generally than only for s block on
the canonical cursor.
Also, the `PivotArc` provides some more fields for caching intermediate
data. This simplifies managing extra arguments for some functions.
* Remove cruft
details:
No need to find cursor arc if it is given as function argument.
* Rename prototype variables `head: PivotArc` to `pvarc`
why:
Better reading
* Function and code massage, adjust names
details:
Avoid the syllable `canonical` in function names that do not strictly
apply to the canonical chain. So renaming
* findCanonicalHead() => findCursorArc()
* canonicalChain() => findHeader()
* trimCanonicalChain() => trimCursorArc()
* Combine `updateBase()` function-args into single `PivotArgs` object
why:
Will generalise action for more complex scenarios in future.
* update `calculateNewBase()` return code type => `PivotArc`
why:
So it can directly be used as argument into `updateBase()`
* Update `calculateNewBase()` for target on parent arc
* Update unit tests
* Kludge: fix `eip4844` import in `validate`
why:
Importing `validate` needs `blscurve` here or with the importing module.
* Separate out `FC` descriptor iinto separate file
why:
Needed for external descriptor access (e.g. for debugging)
* Debugging toolkit for `FC`
* Verify chain descriptor after changing state
* Cosmetics, update log and exception messages
* Update `FC` base tree updater `updateBase()`
why:
Correct `forkJunction` of canonical cursor head record. When moving
the `base`, this field would be below `base` unless updated.
* Fix `FC` chain selector `findCanonicalHead()`
why:
Given a sample ref `hash` the function searched for the unique chain
containing the block header referenced by `hash`.
Unfortunately, when searching down the ancestry lineage, the function
did not necessarily stop an the end of the sub-chain. Rather it
continued with the parent chain without noticing. So returning the
wrong result.
* When calculating new a base it must reside on cursor arc (or leg.)
why:
The finalised block argument (that will eventually be the new base)
might be moved further down the cursor arc if it is too close to the
cursor head (typically smaller than 128 blocks.)
So the finalised block selection is shifted down he cursor arc. And
it might happen that the cursor arc itself is too small and one would
end up at a parent cursor arc. This is rejected.
* Not starting a new cursor arc with a block already on another arc
why:
This leads to an inconsistent set of cursor arcs which are supposed to
be mutually disjunct.
* Tighten condition: A block that is not on the base tree must be on the DB
* One less TODO item
why:
The `base` block is ancestor to all blocks of the base tree bust stays
outside the tree.
Some fringe condition uses an opportunistic fix when the `cursor` is not in
the base tree, which is legit if `cursor != base`.
* Update `ForkedChainRef` constructor
why:
Initialisation is based on the canonical head which is always zero
after resuming a stopped `ForkedChainRef` based import.
* Update new-base calculator
why:
There is some ambiguous code which might not do what the comment
implies. In short, an unsigned condition like `2u - 3u < 1u => false`
is coded where the comment suggests that `2 - 3 < 1 => true` is meant.
This patch fixes notorious crashes when resuming import after a stop.

* Fix txpool headDiff
* Remove hasBlockHeader and use headerExists
* Addressing review
* remove some redundant EH
* avoid pessimising move (introduces a copy in this case!)
* shift less data around when reading era files (reduces stack usage)
* Rename `newKvt()` -> `ctx.getKvt()`
why:
Clean up legacy shortcut. Also, the `KVT` returned is not instantiated
but refers to the shared `KVT` that resides in a context which is a
generalisation of an in-memory database fork. The function `ctx`
retrieves the default context.
* Rename `newTransaction()` -> `ctx.newTransaction()`
why:
Clean up legacy shortcut. The transaction is applied to a context as a
generalisation of an in-memory database fork. The function `ctx`
retrieves the default context.
* Rename `getColumn(CtGeneric)` -> `getGeneric()`
why:
No more a list of well known sub-tries needed, a single one is enough.
In fact, `getColumn()` did only support a single sub-tree by now.
* Reduce TODO list
* Use simpler schema when writing transactions, receipts, and withdrawals
Using MPT not only slow but also take up more spaces than needed.
Aristo will remove older tries and only keep the last block tries.
Using simpler schema will avoid those problems.
* Rename getTransaction to getTransactionByIndex
* ForkedChain implementation
- revamp test_blockchain_json using ForkedChain
- re-enable previously failing test cases.
* Remove excess error handling
* Avoid reloading parent header
* Do not force base update
* Write baggage to database
* Add findActiveChain to finalizedSegment
* Create new stagingTx in addBlock
* Check last stateRoot existence in test_blockchain_json
* Resolve rebase conflict
* More precise nomenclature for block import cursor
* Ensure bad block nor imported and good block not rejected
* finalizeSegment become forkChoice and align with engine API forkChoice spec
* Display reason when good block rejected
* Fix comments

* Separate finalizedHash from baseHash
* Add more doAssert constraint
