Annotate the `research` and `test` files for which no further changes
are needed to successfully compile them, to not interfere with periodic
tasks such as spec reference bumps.
Add `{.raises.}` annotations to `tests` files where needed to enable
`{.push raises: [].}`. Avoids interfering with periodic changes such as
spec version bumps, and avoids special casing folders when editing.
The effort to maintain `{.raises.}` is trivial after the initial round.
Suite names were not being used because `test` has to have access to it
during instantiation - this PR cleans things up a little while at the
same time upgrading unittest2.
This PR removes a few hundred thousand temporary seq allocations during
state transition - in particular, the flag seq was allocated per
validator while committees are computed per attestation.
* require sync committee supermajority in CI
To better catch problems with sync committee messages in CI, extend
local testnet simulation to also verify that each block is signed
by a supermajority of the sync committee.
Requires #5083 and #5084
* lint
Distinguish between those code locations that need to be updated on each
light client data format change, and those others that should generally
be fine, as long as a valid light client object is processed.
The former are tagged with static assert for `LightClientDataFork.high`.
The latter are changed to `lcDataFork > LightClientDataFork.None` to
indicate that they depend only on presence of any valid object.
Also bundled a few minor cleanups and fixes.
Also add `Forky` type for `LightClientStore` and minor fixes / cleanups.
The light client data structures were changed to accommodate additional
fields in future forks (e.g., to also hold execution data).
There is a minor change to the JSON serialization, where the `header`
properties are now nested inside a `LightClientHeader`.
The SSZ serialization remains compatible.

* consolidate consensus spec transition test fixtures

* consoliate fork test fixtures
* note change in EIP-4844 process_block in alpha.2
Now that the 1.2.0-rc.2 spec contains the same `LightClientUpdate`
definition that Nimbus was already using before, the corresponding
SSZ test vectors can be re-enabled.
Merkle proofs tend to have long underlying type definitions, e.g.,
`array[log2trunc(NEXT_SYNC_COMMITTEE_INDEX), Eth2Digest]`. For the
ones used in the LC sync protocol, dedicated types are introduced
to improve readability. Furthermore, the `CachedLightClientBootstrap`
wrapper that solely wrapped a merkle branch is eliminated.
