From old interop tests, a mock `eth1BlockHash` was defined in `base`.
To avoid accidental use by Nimbus, move to `tests` and rename it to
`mockEth1BlockHash`.
CI Lint check failed when bumping to a commit outside default shallow
range. Deepen the checkout through the bumped commit date to ensure
history is available for the ancestry check.
This PR renames the existing `validator_duties` to `beacon_validators`
and in doing so, names validators running inside the beacon node process
"beacon validators" while those running the VC can be referred to as
"client validators" to disambiguate the two.
The existing `validator_duties` instead takes on a new responsibility:
as a home for logic shared between beacon and client validators - ie
code that provides consistency in implementation and behavior between
the two modes of operation.
Not only does this simplify reasoning about where to put code -it also
reduces the number of dependencies the validator client has from ~5000
to ~3000 modules (!) according to `nim genDepend` significantly reducing
compile times.
* bump `nim-chronicles` to `71556f84af16cd275a8ae4c2390060481c6fedf7`
- remove Nim 1.2 and 1.4 support; test Nim 2.0 in CI
- suppress some more `IOError` when logging
* bump `nim-json-serialization` to `85b7ea093cb85ee4f433a617b97571bd709d30df`
- add `readValue` implementations for case objects
- add `{.raises.}` annotation to `writeValue`
- Remove unnecessary `Defect` references
- Remove spurious `SerializationError` references
- Remove duplicate `writeValue` template in `keystore.nim`;
same implementation already exists a bit further above in same file.
Add separate log topic for `block_processor` messages.
Topic named similar to the other `_processor` modules:
- `eth2_processor` --> `gossip_eth2`
- `light_client_processor` --> `gossip_lc`
- `optimistic_processor` --> `gossip_opt`
We have been seeing some port conflicts like:
```
[2023-08-15T00:31:47.625Z] Geth 0 failed to start
```
```
$ tail -n1 local-testnet-mainnet/logs/geth.?.txt

```
In order to debug this we'll need to add printing of some extra info
into `unstable` so feature branches include it.

In #4465, a regression was introduced by deleting the periodic call to
`engine_exchangeTransitionConfiguration` in the Nimbus light client.
This led to the light client never treating the EL as online and,
subsequently, not sending `engine_newPayload` requests for new blocks.
Strangely, `engine_forkchoiceUpdated` requests still make it through :)
Geth still requires both `engine_newPayload` and `fcU` to be called.
By restoring the `exchangeTransitionConfiguration` loop, `newPayload`
requests are once more issued to the EL.
