Currently, we have a bit of a convoluted flow where when sending
attestations, we start broadcasting them over gossip then pass them to
the attestation validation to include them in the local attestation pool
- it should be the other way around: we should be checking attestations
_before_ gossipping them - this serves as an additional safety net to
ensure that we don't publish junk - this becomes more important when
publishing attestations from the API.
Also, the REST API was performing its own validation meaning
attestations coming from REST would be validated twice - finally, the
JSON RPC wasn't pre-validating and would happily broadcast invalid
attestations.
* Unified attestation production pipeline with the same flow for gossip,
locally and API-produced attestations: all are now validated and entered
into the pool, then broadcast/republished
* Refactor subnet handling with specific SubnetId alias, streamlining
where subnets are computed, avoiding the need to pass around the number
of active validators
* Move some of the subnet handling code to eth2_network
* Use BitArray throughout for subnet handling
This PR reduces the number of database queries for slashing protection
from 5 reads and 1 write to 2 reads and 1 write in the optimistic case.
In the process, it removes user-level support for writing the database
in the version 1 format in order to simplify the code flow, and prevent
code rot. In particular, the v1 format was not covered by any unit tests
and has no advantages over v2. The concrete code to read and write it
remains for now, in particular to support upgrades from v1 to v2.
The branch also removes the use of concepts which doesn't work with
checked exceptions - in particular, this highlights code that both
raises exceptions and returns error codes, which could be cleaned up in
the future.
* Cache internal validator ID
* Rely on unique index to check for trivial duplicate votes
* Combine two surround vote queries into one
* Combine API for checking and registering slashing into single function
The slashing DB is normally not a bottleneck, but may become one with
high attached validator counts.
* database state storage benchmarking via ncli_db
* more cleanups from immutable validator state branch
* unexport some eth2_network constants and remove unused variables/templates
* make two PeerScore constants public
* Create CLI tool for slashing export
* Use SQLite as a DB instead of a KV-store
* Keeps v1 and v2 DBs around
* Uses the same schema as Lighthouse v1.1.0
* Passes all interchange tests + skeleton of finalization pruning
* Removes tests that would violate v5 / minimal slashing DB and MinSlot rules
* Migration tool added using low-watermark scheme for faster migration of large number of validators
* expose node signatures
* format bitseqs as hex strings
* format trusted sigs as hex strings (same as untrusted)
* reuse rpc client sigs
* include validator index in duties
* move SyncInfo to spec
* performance fixes
* don't mark tree cache as dirty on read-only List accesses
* store only blob in memory for keys and signatures, parse blob lazily
* compare public keys by blob instead of parsing / converting to raw
* compare Eth2Digest using non-constant-time comparison
* avoid some unnecessary validator copying
This branch will in particular speed up deposit processing which has
been slowing down block replay.

* update attestation pool tests for new validateAttestation param
* make subnet cycling more robust; use one stability subnet/validator; explicitly represent gossip enabled/disabled
* fix asymmetry in _snappy being used for subscriptions but not unsubscriptions
* remove redundant comment
* minimal RPC and VC support for infoming BN of subnets
* create and verify slot signatures in RPC interface and VC
* loosen old slot check
* because Slot + uint64 works but uint64 + Slot doesn't
* document assumptions for head state use; don't clear stability subnets; guard against VC not having checked an epoch ahead, fixing a crash; clarify unsigned comparison
* revert unsub fix
