* Avoid global in p2p macro (fixes#4578)
* copy p2p macro to this repo and start de-crufting it
* make protocol registration dynamic, removing light client hacks et al
* split out light client protocol into its own file
* cleanups
* Option -> Opt
* remove more cruft
* further split beacon_sync
this allows the light client to respond to peer metadata messages
without exposing the block sync protocol
* better protocol init
* "constant" protocol index
* avoid casts
* copyright
* move some discovery code to discovery
* avoid extraneous data copy when sending chunks
* remove redundant forkdigest field
* document how to connect to a specific peer
Using trusted node sync currently requires to run two commands -
first the `trustedNodeSync` command to initialize the database,
followed by the regular startup command to continue syncing.
The `trustedNodeSync` options are now also available during regular
startup, and are used when the database is empty to simplify setting up
a new Nimbus beacon node. This also aligns behaviour closer with other
Ethereum consensus implementations.
The new logic only applies if the database has not yet been initialized;
same as before. Also, the database needs to be removed under the same
conditions as before when a fresh sync is desired.
- compact syntax for different options (as in the rest of the guide)
- correct numeration of the list (continuation vs starting from 1)
- add links to useful resources
- a note stating that Prater is deprecated
* make the validating guide self-contained
Instead of having links to the three separate how-to guides,
now everything is under one umbrella.
