All message processing is done in the validation callbacks, so there's
no need to trigger data handlers for messages we publish - the
self-publish is async, and therefore has an associated cost
Combines the LC data configuration options (serve / importMode), the
callbacks (finality / optimistic LC update) as well as the cache storing
light client data, into a new `LightClientDataStore` structure.
Also moves the structure into a light client specific file.
* check for and log gossip broadcast failure
* switch notices to warns; update LC variables regardless
* don't both return a Result and log sending error
* add metrics counter for failed-due-to-no-peers and removed unnecessary async
* don't report failure of sync committee messages
* remove redundant metric
* document metric being incremented
For consistency with other options, use a common prefix for light client
data configuration options.
* `--serve-light-client-data` --> `--light-client-data-serve`
* `--import-light-client-data` --> `--light-client-data-import-mode`
No deprecation of the old identifiers as they were only sparingly used
and all usage can be easily updated without interferance.
Adds a `LightClient` instance to the beacon node as preparation to
accelerate syncing in the future (optimistic sync).
- `--light-client-enable` turns on the feature
- `--light-client-trusted-block-root` configures block to start from
If no block root is configured, light client tracks DAG `finalizedHead`.
Introduces a new library for syncing using libp2p based light client
sync protocol, and adds a new `nimbus_light_client` executable that uses
this library for syncing. The new executable emits log messages when
new beacon block headers are received, and is integrated into testing.
Incorporates the latest changes to the light client sync protocol based
on Devconnect AMS feedback. Note that this breaks compatibility with the
previous prototype, due to changes to data structures and endpoints.

Other changes:
* logtrace can now verify sync committee messages and contributions
* Many unnecessary use of pairs() have been removed for consistency
* Map 40x BN response codes to BeaconNodeStatus.Incompatible in the VC
* use MAX_CHUNK_SIZE_BELLATRIX for signed Bellatrix blocks
* Update beacon_chain/networking/eth2_network.nim

* localPassC to localPassc
* check against maxChunkSize rather than constant

This PR makes the necessary adjustments to deal with the revamped snappy
API.
In practical terms for nimbus-eth2, there are performance increases to
gossip processing, database reading and writing as well as era file
processing. Exporting `.era` files for example, a snappy-heavy
operation, almost halves in total processing time:

* Add `NoMonitor` flag to stop SyncManager from monitoring sync situation.
* Remove `toleranceValue` and `PeerScoreHeadTooNew`.

* `gnosis-chain` -> `gnosis`
Use same name as LH/Teku throughout
* fixes#3504
* fixes large stack temporary that can cause crashes during genesis
detection
Some upstream repos still need fixes, but this gets us close enough that
style hints can be enabled by default.
In general, "canonical" spellings are preferred even if they violate
nep-1 - this applies in particular to spec-related stuff like
`genesis_validators_root` which appears throughout the codebase.
The `pyrmont` testnet has been discontinued.
For experiments, it's still possible to run pyrmont nodes by passing a
genesis/config, but this PR removes the bundled `--network:pyrmont`
option.
* update docs
* remove empty docs
* remove obsolete `eth2-stats` page
This file is not actually used / useful - should metadata persistence
support be added in the future, it needs to be done with a new file such
that downgrades, that have the TODO logic unimplemented, don't break.
The pre-release light client sync protocol defines additional Req/Resp
messages to be made available when `--serve-light-client-data` is set.
This patch extends the `{.libp2pProtocol.}` pragma with an optional
parameter to tag such light client sync protocol specific messages.
The corresponding protocols are only selectively registered with libp2p.
