The `BlockHeader` structure in `nim-eth` was updated with support for
EIP-4895 (withdrawals). To enable the `nim-eth` bump, the ingress of
`BlockHeader` structures has been hardened to reject headers that have
the new `withdrawalsRoot` field until proper withdrawals support exists.
https://github.com/status-im/nim-eth/pull/562
* Add headers with proof content type and use it for verification
- Add BlockHeaderWithProof content type & content
- Use BlockHeaderWithProof content to verify if chain data is
part of the canonical chain
- Adjust parser & seeder code to be able to seed these headers
with proof
- Adjust eth_data_exporter to be able to export custom header
ranges for which to build proofs (mostly for testing)
There is currently quite some ugliness & clean-up needed for which
a big part is due tos upporting both BlockHeader and
BlockHeaderWithProof on the network.
* Change accumulator proof to array / SSZ vector type
- Change accumulator proof to SSZ vector instead of SSZ list.
- Add and use general buildProof and buildHeaderWithProof func.
* Make the BlockHeaderWithProof an SSZ Union with None option
* Update portal-spec-tests to master commit
Portal master accumulator was removed from the network specs as a
content type shared on the network, as since the merge this is
a finite accumulator (pre-merge only).
So in this PR the accumulator gets removed as network type and
gets instead baked into the library. Building it is done by
seperate tooling (eth_data_exporter).
Because of this a lot of extra code can be removed that was
located in history_network, content_db, portal_protocol, etc.
Also removed to option to build the accumulator at start-up
of fluffy as this takes several minutes making it not viable.
It can still be loaded from a provided file however.
The ssz accumulator file is for now stored in the recently
created portal-spec-tests repository.
In preparation of our migration to the new Nimble-based setup
and [nim-workspace][1], we switch to a new model where the vendor
packages are no longer imported through a locally generated Nimble
dir, but rather through an auto-generated `nimbus-build-system.paths`
file that features regular `--path:` statements.
This file will be imported only within the nimbus-build-system
environment in order to avoid any unwanted interference in working
copies based on the new Nimble setup.

* Bump nim-stew
why:
Need fixed interval set
* Keep track of accumulated account ranges over all state roots
* Added comments and explanations to unit tests
* typo
* Provided common scheduler API, applied to `full` sync
* Use hexary trie as storage for proofs_db records
also:
+ Store metadata with account for keeping track of account state
+ add iterator over accounts
* Common scheduler API applied to `snap` sync
* Prepare for accounts bulk import
details:
+ Added some ad-hoc checks for proving accounts data received from the
snap/1 (will be replaced by proper database version when ready)
+ Added code that dumps some of the received snap/1 data into a file
(turned of by default, see `worker_desc.nim`)
* Error return in `persistBlocks()` on initial `VmState` roblem
why:
previously threw an exception
* Updated sync mode option
why:
using enum rather than bool => space for more
* Added sync mode `full`, re-factued legacy sync
also:
rebased
* Fix typo (crashes `pesistBlocks()` otherwise)
also:
rebase to master
* Reduce log ticker noise by suppressing duplicate messages
* Clarify staged queue overflow handling
why:
backtrack/re-org mode in `stageItem()` should be detected by both,
the global indicator or the work item where it might have moved into.
also:
rebased
* Relocated `IntervalSets` to nim-stew repo
* Accumulate accounts on temporary kv-DB
why:
Explore the data as returned from snap/1. Will be converted to a
`eth/db` next.
details:
Verify and accumulate per/state-root accounts downloaded via snap.
also:
Some unit tests
* Replace `Table` by `TrieDatabaseRef` for accounts accumulator
* update ticker statistics
details:
mean/variance based counter update
* allow persistent db for proved accounts
* rebase, and globally activate unit test
* fix statistics
