There are a number of locations in the code that get attestations on a
forked beacon state. For attestation pools test, a convenience wrapper
was available to reduce clutter. This patch integrates that wrapper into
the core component so that it can also take advantage of the wrapper.
The initialization of a `SyncAggregate` to its default value is not very
intuitive. There is an `init` function in `sync_committee_msg_pool` that
provides a convenience wrapper. This patch exports that initializer so
that the rest of the code base can also take advantage of it.
The phase0 and altair overloads of `makeBeaconBlock` slightly differ in
their signatures which makes using them unnecessarily verbose.
- A placeholder `sync_aggregate` argument similar to `executionPayload`
is added to the phase0 overload to match the altair signature.
- A wrapper operating on `ForkedHashedBeaconState` is introduced.

This PR continues the work in
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2646,
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2779 as well as past
issues with serialization and type, to disentangle SSZ from eth2 and at
the same time simplify imports and exports with a structured approach.
The principal idea here is that when a library wants to introduce SSZ
support, they do so via 3 files:
* `ssz_codecs` which imports and reexports `codecs` - this covers the
basic byte conversions and ensures no overloads get lost
* `xxx_merkleization` imports and exports `merkleization` to specialize
and get access to `hash_tree_root` and friends
* `xxx_ssz_serialization` imports and exports `ssz_serialization` to
specialize ssz for a specific library
Those that need to interact with SSZ always import the `xxx_` versions
of the modules and never `ssz` itself so as to keep imports simple and
safe.
This is similar to how the REST / JSON-RPC serializers are structured in
that someone wanting to serialize spec types to REST-JSON will import
`eth2_rest_serialization` and nothing else.
* split up ssz into a core library that is independendent of eth2 types
* rename `bytes_reader` to `codec` to highlight that it contains coding
and decoding of bytes and native ssz types
* remove tricky List init overload that causes compile issues
* get rid of top-level ssz import
* reenable merkleization tests
* move some "standard" json serializers to spec
* remove `ValidatorIndex` serialization for now
* remove test_ssz_merkleization
* add tests for over/underlong byte sequences
* fix broken seq[byte] test - seq[byte] is not an SSZ type
There are a few things this PR doesn't solve:
* like #2646 this PR is weak on how to handle root and other
dontSerialize fields that "sometimes" should be computed - the same
problem appears in REST / JSON-RPC etc
* Fix a build problem on macOS
* Another way to fix the macOS builds

The spec imports are a mess to work with, so this branch cleans them up
a bit to ensure that we avoid generic sandwitches and that importing
stuff generally becomes easier.
* reexport crypto/digest/presets because these are part of the public
symbol set of the rest of the spec types
* don't export `merge` types from `base` - this causes circular deps
* fix circular deps in `ssz/spec_types` - this is the first step in
disentangling ssz from spec
* be explicit about phase0 vs altair - longer term, `altair` will become
the "natural" type set, then merge and so on, so no point in giving
`phase0` special preferential treatment
Simpler module name for stuff that covers forks
* check that runtime config matches database state
* also include some assorted altair cleanups
* use "standard" genesis fork in local testnet to work around missing
runtime config support
* bump libp2p
* altair sync v2

We generally send out attestations 250 ms after the block arrives.
Recent efficiency improvements have led to a slightly increased
incidence of "slot 0" issues where attestations are dropped by other
nodes because they have not yet had time to process the block due to
epoch processing taking time.
This PR mitigates the problem by increasing the window between receiving
the block and sending out attestations.

* remove debugging scaffolding
* proposeSignedBlock() will need to be async for merge; introduce altair types to VC
* remove false OnBlockAdded dependency on phase.HashedBeaconState
* introduce altair data types into block_clearance; update some alpha.6 spec refs to alpha.7; add get_active_validator_indices_len ForkedHashedBeaconState wrapper
* switch many modules from using datatypes (with phase0 states/blocks) to datatypes/base (fork-independent); update spec refs from alpha.6 to alpha.7 and remove rm'd G2_POINT_AT_INFINITY
* switch more modules from using datatypes (with phase0 states/blocks) to datatypes/base (fork-independent); update spec refs from alpha.6 to alpha.7

* remove unused callWithBS(); separate case expression from if statement
* switch back from nested-ref-object construction to (ref Foo)(Bar())
* write uncompressed validator keys to database
Loading 150k+ validator keys on startup in compressed format takes a lot
of time - better store them in uncompressed format which makes behaviour
just after startup faster / more predictable.
* refactor cached validator key access
* fix isomorphic cast to work with non-var instances
* remove cooked pubkey cache - directly use database cache in chaindag
as well (one less cache to keep in sync)
* bump blscurve, introduce loadValid for known-to-be-valid keys
Instead of keeping a validator key list per EpochRef, this PR introduces
a single shared validator key list in ChainDAG, and cleans up some other
ChainDAG and key-related issues.
The PR does not introduce the validator key list in the state transition
- this is because we batch-check all signatures before entering the spec
code, thus the spec code never hits the cache.
A future refactor should _probably_ remove the threadvar altogether.
There's a few other small fixes in here that make the flow easier to
read:
* fix `var ChainDAGRef` -> `ChainDAGRef`
* fix `var QuarantineRef` -> `QuarantineRef`
* consistent `dag` variable name
* avoid using threadvar pubkey cache in most cases
* better error messages in batch signature checking
* use StateData in place of BeaconState outside state transition code
* propagate more StateData usage
* remove withStateVars().state
* wrap get_beacon_committee(BeaconState, ...) as gbc(StateData, ...)
* switch makeAttestation() to use StateData
* use StateData wrapper/dispatcher for get_committee_count_per_slot()
* convert AttestationCache.init(), weak subjectivity functions, and updateValidatorMetrics()
* add get_shuffled_active_validator_indices(StateData) and get_block_root_at_slot(StateData)
* switch makeAttestationData() to StateData
* sync AllTests-mainnet.md after rebase
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.
* avoid creating indexed attestation just to check signatures - above
all, don't create it when not checking signatures ;)
* avoid pointer op when adding attestation to pool
* better iterator for yielding attestations
* add metric / log for attestation packing time
* batch attestations
* Fixes (but now need to investigate the chronos 0 .. 4095 crash similar to https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/1518

* better comments [skip ci]
* Address most review comments
* only use ref for async proc
