* Add support for using custom remote signers in local sim
Other changes:
* Enable the Nimbus remote signer in the minimal simulation
* Move all log files into the `logs` folder of the simulation
* Create PID files for all processes and use them during the clean-up
phase instead of the previous more fragile methods for killing the
remaining processes.
When `scripts/geth_binaries.sh` was updated, as a side effect of dumping
downloaded Geth tarballs / zips into the repo root directory, artifacts
for Jenkins jobs started preserving those downloads with every job,
repeatedly leading to full disks. Exclude those downloads from Jenkins.
* add CI check for options documentation
Ensure that documented options reflect available beacon node options.
* escape `\`
* use bash
* override `COLUMNS` for extracting help text
When cancelling the `minimal` CI finalization testnet on Jenkins, the
internal Jenkins cancellation exception is being caught by `catchError`
and the `mainnet` CI finalization testnet will still run. Replacing the
logic with `try` / `finally` instead, and moving the `archiveArtifacts`
step to the post-build (to run that even on cancellation / failure).
The ports for the concurrently executing REST and Minimal testnet clash,
leading to some CI failures since #3827 introduced further concurrency.
Adjusting the ports to be distinct across various tests should fix this.
Changes:
- Name local testnet output folders same as the `make` taget.
- Move both `Jenkinsfile`s to `ci` folder to avoid cluttering repo root.
- Separate builds by platform so logs from macos and linux hosts don't get mixed.
- Detect platform and architecture from Jenkins Job path to use one Jenkinsfile.
- Divide shell commands into as many stages as possible to make debugging easier.
- Generalize running testnets via a `launchLocalTestnet()` Groovy method.
- Handle uploading of results of running testnets stage-by-stage basis.
- Use `catchError()` to upload test results while marking job as failed.
- Abort previously started PR build jobs usin `disableConcurrentBuilds()`.
- Throttle jobs using the new `throttleJobProperty()` function.
