Aristo and kvt balancer management update (#2504)
* Aristo: Merge `delta_siblings` module into `deltaPersistent()`

* Aristo: Add `isEmpty()` for canonical checking whether a layer is empty

* Aristo: Merge `LayerDeltaRef` into `LayerObj`

why:
  No need to maintain nested object refs anymore. Previously the
 `LayerDeltaRef` object had a companion `LayerFinalRef` which held
  non-delta layer information.

* Kvt: Merge `LayerDeltaRef` into `LayerRef`

why:
  No need to maintain nested object refs (as with `Aristo`)

* Kvt: Re-write balancer logic similar to `Aristo`

why:
  Although `Kvt` was a cheap copy of `Aristo` it sort of got out of
  sync and the balancer code was wrong.

* Update iterator over forked peers

why:
  Yield additional field `isLast` indicating that the last iteration
  cycle was approached.

* Optimise balancer calculation.

why:
  One can often avoid providing a new object containing the merge of two
  layers for the balancer. This avoids copying tables. In some cases this
  is replaced by `hasKey()` look ups though. One uses one of the two
  to combine and merges the other into the first.

  Of course, this needs some checks for making sure that none of the
  components to merge is eventually shared with something else.

* Fix copyright year

storage: store root id together with vid, for better locality of refe… (#2449)
The state and account MPT:s currenty share key space in the database
based on that vertex id:s are assigned essentially randomly, which means
that when two adjacent slot values from the same contract are accessed,
they might reside at large distance from each other.

Here, we prefix each vertex id by its root causing them to be sorted
together thus bringing all data belonging to a particular contract
closer together - the same effect also happens for the main state MPT
whose nodes now end up clustered together more tightly.

In the future, the prefix given to the storage keys can also be used to
perform range operations such as reading all the storage at once and/or
deleting an account with a batch operation.

Notably, parts of the API already supported this rooting concept while
parts didn't - this PR makes the API consistent by always working with a
root+vid.

Aristo cull journal related stuff (#2288)
* Remove all journal related stuff

* Refactor function names journal*() => delta*(), filter*() => delta*()

* remove `trg` fileld from `FilterRef`

why:
  Same as `kMap[$1]`

* Re-type FilterRef.src as `HashKey`

why:
  So it is directly comparable to `kMap[$1]`

* Moved `vGen[]` field from `LayerFinalRef` to `LayerDeltaRef`

why:
  Then a separate `FilterRef` type is not needed, anymore

* Rename `roFilter` field in `AristoDbRef` => `balancer`

why:
  New name more appropriate.

* Replace `FilterRef` by `LayerDeltaRef` type

why:
  This allows to avoid copying into the `balancer` (see next patch set)
  most of the time. Typically, only one instance is running on the backend
  and the `balancer` is only used as a stage before saving data.

* Refactor way how to store data persistently

why:
  Avoid useless copy when staging `top` layer for persistently saving to
  backend.

* Fix copyright header?

Misc updates for full sync (#2140)
* Code cosmetics

* Aristo+Kvt: Fix api wrappers

why:
  Api setup killed the backend descriptor when backend mapping was
  disabled.

* Aristo: Implement masked profiling entries

why:
  Database backend should be listed but not counted in tally

* CoreDb: Simplify backend() methods

why:
  DBMS backend access Was provided very early and over engineered. Now
  there are only two backend machines, one for `Kvt` and the other one
  for an `Mpt` available only via new API.

* CoreDb: Code cleanup regarding descriptor types

* CoreDb: Refactor/redefine `persistent()` methods

why:
  There were `persistent()` methods for any type of caching storage
  facilities `Kvt`, `Mpt`, `Phk`, and `Acc`. Now there is only a single
  `persistent()` method storing all facilities in tandem (similar to
  how transactions work.)

  For non shared `Kvt` tables, there is now an extra storage method
  `saveOffSite()`.

* CoreDb lingo update: `trie` becomes `column`

why:
  Notion of a `trie` is pretty much hidden by the new `CoreDb` api.
  Revealed are sort of database columns for accounts an storage data,
  any of which have an internal state represented by a Keccack hash.
  So a `trie` or `MPT` becomes a `column` and a `rootHash` becomes a
  column state.

* Aristo: rename backend filed `filters` => `journal`

* Update full sync logging

details:
  + Disable eth handler noise while syncing
  + Log journal depth (if available)

* Fix copyright year

* Fix cruft and unwanted imports

Aristo: Update unit test suite (#2002)
* Aristo: Update unit test suite

* Aristo/Kvt: Fix iterators

why:
  Generic iterators were not properly updated after backend change

* Aristo: Add sub-trie deletion functionality

why:
  For storage tries linked to an account payload vertex ID, a the
  whole storage trie needs to be deleted with the account.

* Aristo: Reserve vertex ID numbers for static custom state roots

why:
  Static custom state roots may be controlled by an application,
  e.g. for a receipt or a transaction root. The `Aristo` functions
  are agnostic of what the static state roots are when different
  from the internal tree vertex ID 1.

details;
  The `merge()` function applied to a non-static state root (assumed
  to be a storage root) will check the payload of an accounts leaf
  and mark its Merkle keys to be re-checked.

* Aristo: Correct error code symbol

* Aristo: Update error code symbols

* Aristo: Code cosmetics/comments

* Aristo: Fix hashify schedule calculator

why:
  Had a tendency to stop early leaving an incomplete job

Aristo db kvt maintenance update (#1952)
* Update KVT layers abstraction

details:
  modelled after Aristo layers

* Simplified KVT database iterators (removed item counters)

why:
  Not needed for production functions

* Simplify KVT merge function `layersCc()`

* Simplified Aristo database iterators (removed item counters)

why:
  Not needed for production functions

* Update failure condition for hash labels compiler `hashify()`

why:
  Node need not be rejected as long as links are on the schedule. In
  that case, `redo[]` is to become `wff.base[]` at a later stage.

* Update merging layers and label update functions

why:
+ Merging a stack of layers with `layersCc()` could be simplified
+ Merging layers will optimise the reverse `kMap[]` table maps
  `pAmk: label->{vid, ..}` by deleting empty mappings `label->{}` where
  they are redundant.
+ Updated `layersPutLabel()` for optimising `pAmk[]` tables

Core db use differential tx layers for aristo and kvt (#1949)
* Fix kvt headers

* Provide differential layers for KVT transaction stack

why:
  Significant performance improvement

* Provide abstraction layer for database top cache layer

why:
  This will eventually implemented as a differential database layers
  or transaction layers. The latter is needed to improve performance.

behavioural changes:
  Zero vertex and keys (i.e. delete requests) are not optimised out
  until the last layer is written to the database.

* Provide differential layers for Aristo transaction stack

why:
  Significant performance improvement

Aristo and ledger small updates (#1888)
* Fix debug noise in `hashify()` for perfectly normal situation

why:
  Was previously considered a fixable error

* Fix test sample file names

why:
  The larger test file `goerli68161.txt.gz` is already in the local
  archive. So there is no need to use the smaller one from the external
  repo.

* Activate `accounts_cache` module from `db/ledger`

why:
  A copy of the original `accounts_cache.nim` source to be integrated
  into the `Ledger` module wrapper which allows to switch between
  different `accounts_cache` implementations unser tha same API.

details:
  At a later state, the `db/accounts_cache.nim` wrapper will be
  removed so that there is only one access to that module via
  `db/ledger/accounts_cache.nim`.

* Fix copyright headers in source code

Core db aristo and kvt updates preparing for integration (#1760)
* Kvt: Implemented multi-descriptor access on the same backend

why:
  This behaviour mirrors the one of Aristo and can be used for
  simultaneous transactions on Aristo + Kvt

* Kvt: Update database iterators

why:
  Forgot to run on the top layer first

* Kvt: Misc fixes

* Aristo, use `openArray[byte]` rather than `Blob` in prototype

* Aristo, by default hashify right after cloning descriptor

why:
  Typically, a completed descriptor is expected after cloning. Hashing
  can be suppressed by argument flag.

* Aristo provides `replicate()` iterator, similar to legacy `replicate()`

* Aristo API fixes and updates

* CoreDB: Rename `legacy_persistent` => `legacy_rocksdb`

why:
  More systematic, will be in line with Aristo DB which might have
  more than one persistent backends

* CoreDB: Prettify API sources

why:
  Better to read and maintain

details:
  Annotating with custom pragmas which cleans up the prototypes

* CoreDB: Update MPT/put() prototype allowing `CatchableError`

why:
  Will be needed for Aristo API (legacy is OK with `RlpError`)

Aristo db api extensions for use as core db backend (#1754)
* Update docu

* Update Aristo/Kvt constructor prototype

why:
  Previous version used an `enum` value to indicate what backend is to
  be used. This was replaced by using the backend object type.

* Rewrite `hikeUp()` return code into `Result[Hike,(Hike,AristoError)]`

why:
  Better code maintenance. Previously, the `Hike` object was returned. It
  had an internal error field so partial success was also available on
  a failure. This error field has been removed.

* Use `openArray[byte]` rather than `Blob` in functions prototypes

* Provide synchronised multi instance transactions

why:
  The `CoreDB` object was geared towards the legacy DB which used a single
  transaction for the key-value backend DB. Different state roots are
  provided by the backend database, so all instances work directly on the
  same backend.

  Aristo db instances have different in-memory mappings (aka different
  state roots) and the transactions are on top of there mappings. So each
  instance might run different transactions.

  Multi instance transactions are a compromise to converge towards the
  legacy behaviour. The synchronised transactions span over all instances
  available at the time when base transaction was opened. Instances
  created later are unaffected.

* Provide key-value pair database iterator

why:
  Needed in `CoreDB` for `replicate()` emulation

also:
  Some update of internal code

* Extend API (i.e. prototype variants)

why:
  Needed for `CoreDB` geared towards the legacy backend which has a more
  basic API than Aristo.

Aristo db fixes n updates needed for filter fifo (#1728)
* Set scheduler state as part of the backend descriptor

details:
  Moved type definitions `QidLayoutRef` and `QidSchedRef` to
 `desc_structural.nim` so that it shares the same folder as
  `desc_backend.nim`

* Automatic filter queue table initialisation in backend

details:
  Scheduler can be tweaked or completely disabled

* Updated backend unit tests

details:
+ some code clean up/beautification, reads better now
+ disabled persistent filters so that there is no automated filter
   management which will be implemented next

* Prettify/update unit tests source code

details:
  Mostly replacing the `check()` paradigm by `xCheck()`

* Somewhat simplified backend type management

why:
  Backend objects are labelled with a `BackendType` symbol where the
  `BackendVoid` label is implicitly assumed for a `nil` backend object
  reference.

  To make it easier, a `kind()` function is used now applicable to
  `nil` references as well.

* Fix DB storage layout for filter objects

why:
  Need to store the filter ID with the object

* Implement reverse [] index on fifo

why:
  An integer index argument on `[]` retrieves the QueueID (label) of the
  fifo item while a QueueID argument on `[]` retrieves the index (so
  it is inverse to the former variant).

* Provide iterator over filters as fifo

why:
  This iterator goes along the cascased fifo structure (i.e. in
  historical order)

Aristo db implement filter storage scheduler (#1713)
* Rename FilterID => QueueID

why:
  The current usage does not identify a particular filter but uses it as
  storage tag to manage it on the database (to be organised in a set of
  FIFOs or queues.)

* Split `aristo_filter` source into sub-files

why:
  Make space for filter management API

* Store filter queue IDs in pairs on the backend

why:
  Any pair will will describe a FIFO accessed by bottom/top IDs

* Reorg some source file names

why:
  The "aristo_" prefix for make local/private files is tedious to
  use, so removed.

* Implement filter slot scheduler

details:
  Filters will be stored on the database on cascaded FIFOs. When a FIFO
  queue is full, some filter items are bundled together and stored on the
  next FIFO.

Aristo db consolidate and clean up (#1699)
* Removed dedicated transcoder tests

why:
  will implicitely be provided by other tests:
  + encode/write -> hashify -> test_tx
  + decode/read -> merge raw nodes -> test_tx
  + de/blobfiy -> backend operations, taext_tx, test_backend, test_filter

* Clarify how the vertex ID generator state is accessed from the backend

why:
  This state is a list of unused vertex IDs. It was just stored somewhere
  on the backend which details were exposed when iterating over some
  sub-table(s).

  As there will be more such single information records, an admin
  sub-tables has been defined (formerly ID generator table) with dedicated
  access keys and type. Also, the iterator over the single ID generator
  state item has been removed. It must be accessed via the `get()`
  interface.

* Remove trailing space from file name

why:
  fixes windows bail out

Aristo db implement filter serialisation for storage (#1695)
* Remove concept of empty/blind filters

why:
  Not needed. A non-existent filter is is coded as a nil reference.

* Slightly generalised backend iterators

why:
 * VertexID as key for the ID generator state makes no sense
 * there will be more tables addressed by non-VertexID keys

* Store serialised/blobified vertices on memory backend

why:
  This is more in line with the RocksDB backend so more appropriate
  for testing when comparing behaviour. For a speedy memory database,
  a backend-less variant should be used.

* Drop the `Aristo` prefix from names `AristoLayerRef`, etc.

* Suppress compiler warning

why:
  duplicate imports

* Add filter serialisation transcoder

why:
  Will be used as storage format

Aristo db integrate hashify into tx (#1679)
* Renamed type `NoneBackendRef` => `VoidBackendRef`

* Clarify names: `BE=filter+backend` and `UBE=backend (unfiltered)`

why:
  Most functions used full names as `getVtxUnfilteredBackend()` or
  `getKeyBackend()`. After defining abbreviations (and its meaning) it
   seems easier to use `getVtxUBE()` and `getKeyBE()`.

* Integrate `hashify()` process into transaction logic

why:
  Is now transparent unless explicitly controlled.

details:
  Cache changes imply setting a `dirty` flag which in turn triggers
  `hashify()` processing in transaction and `pack()` directives.

* Removed `aristo_tx.exec()` directive

why:
  Inconsistent implementation, functionality will be provided with a
  different paradigm.

Aristo db use filter betw backend and tx cache (#1678)
* Provide deep copy for each transaction layer

why:
  Localising changes. Selective deep copy was just overlooked.

* Generalise vertex ID generator state reorg function `vidReorg()`

why:
  makes it somewhat easier to handle when saving layers.

* Provide dummy back end descriptor `NoneBackendRef`

* Optional read-only filter between backend and transaction cache

why:
  Some staging area for accumulating changes to the backend DB. This
  will eventually be an access layer for emulating a backend with
  multiple/historic state roots.

* Re-factor `persistent()` with filter between backend/tx-cache => `stow()`

why:
  The filter provides an abstraction from the physically stored data on
  disk. So, there can be several MPT instances using the same disk data
  with different state roots. Of course, all the MPT instances should
  not differ too much for practical reasons :).

TODO:
  Filter administration tools need to be provided.
