Aristo db update for short nodes key edge cases (#1887)
* Aristo: Provide key-value list signature calculator

detail:
  Simple wrappers around `Aristo` core functionality

* Update new API for `CoreDb`

details:
+ Renamed new API functions `contains()` => `hasKey()` or `hasPath()`
  which disables the `in` operator on non-boolean 	`contains()` functions
+ The functions `get()` and `fetch()` always return a not-found error if
  there is no item, available. The new functions `getOrEmpty()` and
  `mergeOrEmpty()` return an an empty `Blob` if there is no such key
  found.

* Rewrite `core_apps.nim` using new API from `CoreDb`

* Use `Aristo` functionality for calculating Merkle signatures

details:
  For debugging, the `VerifyAristoForMerkleRootCalc` can be set so
  that `Aristo` results will be verified against the legacy versions.

* Provide general interface for Merkle signing key-value tables

details:
  Export `Aristo` wrappers

* Activate `CoreDb` tests

why:
  Now, API seems to be stable enough for general tests.

* Update `toHex()` usage

why:
  Byteutils' `toHex()` is superior to `toSeq.mapIt(it.toHex(2)).join`

* Split `aristo_transcode` => `aristo_serialise` + `aristo_blobify`

why:
+ Different modules for different purposes
+ `aristo_serialise`: RLP encoding/decoding
+ `aristo_blobify`: Aristo database encoding/decoding

* Compacted representation of small nodes' links instead of Keccak hashes

why:
  Ethereum MPTs use Keccak hashes as node links if the size of an RLP
  encoded node is at least 32 bytes. Otherwise, the RLP encoded node
  value is used as a pseudo node link (rather than a hash.) Such a node
  is nor stored on key-value database. Rather the RLP encoded node value
  is stored instead of a lode link in a parent node instead. Only for
  the root hash, the top level node is always referred to by the hash.

  This feature needed an abstraction of the `HashKey` object which is now
  either a hash or a blob of length at most 31 bytes. This leaves two
  ways of representing an empty/void `HashKey` type, either as an empty
  blob of zero length, or the hash of an empty blob.

* Update `CoreDb` interface (mainly reducing logger noise)

* Fix copyright years (to make `Lint` happy)

Core db update api and fix tracer methods (#1816)
* CoreDB: Re-org API

details:
  Legacy API internally uses vertex ID for root node abstraction

* Cosmetics: Move some unit test helpers to common sub-directory

* Extract constant from `accouns_cache.nim` => `constants.nim`

* Fix tracer methods

why:
  Logger dump data were wrongly dumped from the production database. This
  caused an assert exception when iterating over the persistent database
  (instead of the memory logger.) This event in turn was enabled after
  fixing another inconsistency which just set up an empty iterator. Unit
  tests failed to detect that.

Core db update providing additional results code interface (#1776)
* Split `core_db/base.nim` into several sources

* Rename `core_db/legacy.nim` => `core_db/legacy_db.nim`

* Update `CoreDb` API, dual methods returning `Result[]` or plain value

detail:
  Plain value methods implemet the legacy API, they defect on error results

* Redesign `CoreDB` direct backend access

why:
  Made the `backend` directive integral part of the API

* Discontinue providing unused or otherwise available functions

details:
+ setTransactionID() removed, not used and not easily replicable in Aristo
+ maybeGet() removed, available via direct backend access
+ newPhk() removed, never used & was experimental anyway

* Update/reorg backend API

why:
+ Added error print function `$$()`
+ General descriptor completion (and optional validation) via `bless()`

* Update `Aristo`/`Kvt` exception handling

why:
  Avoid `CatchableError` exceptions, rather pass them as error code where
  appropriate.

* More `CoreDB` compliant `Aristo` and `Kvt` methods

details:
+ Providing functions like `contains()`, `getVtxRc()` (returns `Result[]`).
+ Additional error code: `NotImplemented`

* Rewrite/reorg of Aristo DB constructor

why:
  Previously used global object `DefaultQidLayoutRef` as default
  initialiser. This object was created at compile time which lead to
  non-gc safe functions.

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`)

Unified database frontend integration (#1670)
* Nimbus folder environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `nimbus` sub-folder.
* The `nimbus` program does not compile yet as it needs the updates
  in the parallel `stateless` sub-folder.

* Stateless environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `stateless` sub-folder.
* The `nimbus` program compiles now.

* Premix environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `premix` sub-folder.

* Fluffy environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `fluffy` sub-folder.

* Tools environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `tools` sub-folder.

* Nodocker environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the
  `hive_integration/nodocker` sub-folder.

* Tests environment update

details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `tests` sub-folder.
* The unit tests compile and run cleanly now.

* Generalise `CoreDbRef` to any `select_backend` supported database

why:
  Generalisation was just missed due to overcoming some compiler oddity
  which was tied to rocksdb for testing.

* Suppress compiler warning for `newChainDB()`

why:
  Warning was added to this function which must be wrapped so that
  any `CatchableError` is re-raised as `Defect`.

* Split off persistent `CoreDbRef` constructor into separate file

why:
  This allows to compile a memory only database version without linking
  the backend library.

* Use memory `CoreDbRef` database by default

detail:
 Persistent DB constructor needs to import `db/core_db/persistent

why:
 Most tests use memory DB anyway. This avoids linking `-lrocksdb` or
 any other backend by default.

* fix `toLegacyBackend()` availability check

why:
  got garbled after memory/persistent split.

* Clarify raw access to MPT for snap sync handler

why:
  Logically, `kvt` is not the raw access for the hexary trie (although
  this holds for the legacy database)

Unified database frontend (#1661)
* Remove 32bit os support from `custom_network` unit test

also:
* Fix compilation annoyance #1648
* Fix unit test on Kiln (changed `merge` logic?)

* Hide unused sources do not compile

why:
* Get them out of the way before major update
* Import and function prototype mismatch -- maybe some changes got out
  of scope.

* Re-implemented `db_chain` as `core_db`

why:
  Hiding `TrieDatabaseRef` and `HexaryTrie` by default allows to replace
  the current db wrapper by some other one, e.g. Aristo

* Support compiler exception warnings for CoreDbRef base methods.

* Allow `pairs()` iterator on all memory based key-value tables

why:
  Previously only available for capture recorder.

* Backport `chain_db.nim` changes into its re-implementation `core_apps.nim`

* Fix exception annotation

Aristo db address sup trie items properly (#1600)
* Fix include

why:
  Eth67 not default yet so that got missed

* Rename `LeafKey` => `LeafTie`

why:
  Name is a pen picture of what this object is for. Also, it avoids the
  ubiquitous term `key`.

* Provided `getOrVoid()` wrapper for `getOrDefault()`

also:
  Provide `isValid()` syntactic sugar for `.isNil.not`, `!= 0` etc.
  Reorg descriptor source, split into sub-sources

* Bundled `NodeKey` objects with root ID and called it `HashLabel`

why:
  `NodeKey` (aka repurposed Hash265) objects are unique only within a
  particular sub-trie (e.g. storage slots) which are kept separated
  (i.e non-interleaved) by design. This is not applied to the backend
  as the map VertexID->NodeKey labelling the nodes needs not be injective.

  For the in-memory database (transaction) layers, the injective map
  VertexID->(VertexID,NodeKey) is used where the first field of the image
  tuple is the root ID of the sub-trie the `NodeKey` object is valid. So
  identical storage tries for different accounts can be represented.

Snap sync update pivot updating via rpc (#1583)
* Unit tests update, code cosmetics

* Fix segfault with zombie handling

why:
  In order to save memory, the data records of zombie entries are removed
  and only the key (aka peer node) is kept. Consequently, logging these
  zombies can only be done by the key.

* Allow to accept V2 payload without `shanghaiTime` set while syncing

why:
  Currently, `shanghaiTime` is missing (alt least) while snap syncing. So
  beacon node headers can be processed regardless. Normal (aka strict)
  processing will be automatically restored when leaving snap sync mode.

Improve full sync part behaviour 4 snap sync suite (#1564)
* Set maximum time for nodes to be banned.

why:
  Useless nodes are marked zombies and banned. They a kept in a table
  until flushed out by new connections. This works well if there are many
  connections. For the case that there are a few only, a maximum time is
  set. When expired, zombies are flushed automatically.

* Suspend full sync while block number at beacon block

Pre functional snap to full sync (#1546)
* Update sync scheduler pool mode

why:
  The pool mode allows to loop over active peers one after another. This
  is ideal for soft re-starting peers. As this is a two tier experience
  (start/stop, setup/release) the loop must be run twice. This is
  controlled by a more rigid re-definition of how to use the `poolMode`
  flag.

* Mitigate RLP serialiser deficiency

why:
  Currently, serialising the `BlockBody` in not conevrtible and need
  to be checked in the `eth` module. Currently a local fix for the
  wire protocol applies. Unit tests will stay (after this local solution
  will have been removed.)

* Code cosmetics and massage

details:
  Main part is `types.toStr()` as a unified function for logging block
  numbers.

* Allow to use a logical genesis replacement (start of history)

why:
  Snap sync will set up an arbitrary pivot at a block number different
  from zero. In fact, the higher the block number the better.

details:
  A non-genesis start of history will currently only affect the score
  values which were derived from the difficulty.

* Provide function to store the snap pivot block header in chain db

why:
  Together with the start of history facility, this allows to proceed
  with full syncing once snap has finished.

details:
  Snap db storage was switched from a sub-tables to the flat chain db.

* Provide database completeness and sanity checker

details:
  For debugging on smaller databases, only

* Implement snap -> full sync switch

Prepare snap client for continuing with full sync (#1534)
* Somewhat tighten error handling

why:
  Zombie state is invoked when the current peer turns out to be useless
  for further communication. While there is a chance to further talk
  to a peer about another topic (aka healing) after some protocol failure,
  it makes no sense to do so after a network problem.

  The latter state is explained bu the `peerDegraded` flag that goes
  together with the `zombie` state flag. A degraded peer is dropped
  immediately.

* Remove `--sync-mode=snapCtx` option, always start snap in recovery mode

why:
  No need for a snap sync option without recovery mode, can be achieved
  by deleting the database.

* Code cosmetics, typos, prettify logging, debugging helper, etc.

* Split off snap sync sub-mode handler into separate modules

details:
  The original `worker.nim` source has become a multiplexer for several
  snap sync sub-modes `full` and `snap`. The source modules of the
  incarnations of a particular sync sub-mode are places into the
  `worker/play` directory.

* Update ticker for snap and full sync logging

Update snap client storage slots download and healing (#1529)
* Fix fringe condition for `GetStorageRanges` message handler

why:

* Update storage range bulk download

details;
  Mainly re-org of storage queue processing in `storage_queue_helper.nim`

* Update logging variables/messages

* Update storage slots healing

details:
  Mainly clean up after improved helper functions from the sources
  `find_missing_nodes.nim` and `storage_queue_helper.nim`.

* Simplify account fetch

why:
  To much fuss made tolerating some errors. There will be an overall
  strategy implemented where the concert of download and healing function
  is orchestrated.

* Add error resilience to the concert of download and healing.

why:
  The idea is that a peer might stop serving snap/1 accounts and storage
  slot downloads while still able to support fetching nodes for healing.

* Update nearby/neighbour leaf nodes finder

details:
  Update return error codes so that in the case that there is no more
  leaf node beyond the search direction, the particular error code
  `NearbyBeyondRange` is returned.

* Compile largest interval range containing only this leaf point

why:
  Will be needed in snap sync for adding single leaf nodes to the range
  of already allocated nodes.

* Reorg `hexary_inspect.nim`

why:
 Merged the nodes collecting algorithm for persistent and in-memory
 into a single generic function `hexary_inspect.inspectTrieImpl()`

* Update fetching accounts range failure handling in `rangeFetchAccounts()`

why:
  Rejected response leads now to fetching for another account range. Only
  repeated failures (or all done) terminate the algorithm.

* Update accounts healing

why:
+ Fixed looping over a bogus node response that could not inserted into
  the database. As a solution, these nodes are locally registered and not
  asked for in this download cycle.
+ Sub-optimal handling of interval range for a healed account leaf node.
  Now the maximal range interval containing this node is registered as
  processed which leafs to de-fragementation of the processed (and
  unprocessed) range list(s). So *gap* ranges which are known not to
  cover any account leaf node are not asked for on the network, anymore.
+ Sporadically remove empty interval ranges (if any)

* Update logging, better variable names

Update snap server client test scenario (#1518)
* Redesign snap1 message GetTrieNodes argument prototypes

why:
  A list of sub-objects `seq[SnapTriePath]` is more intuitive to work with
  than an opaque definition `seq[seq[Blob]]` because the inner object
  `SnapTriePath` object has a dedicated inner structure (for how to
  interprete `seq[Blob]`.)

* Collect some public constants into `constants.nim` file

* Reorg `hexary_paths.nim`

why:
+ Collecting nodes following a partial path properly ending at an
  extension node failed to collect this last node.
+ Merged the nodes collecting algorithm for persistent and in-memory
  into a single generic function `hexary_paths.rootPathExtend()`

info:
  Extracted common tasks to `hexary_nodes_helper.nim`

* Implement `StorageRanges` message handler for snap/1 protocol
