* initial attestation aggregation
* fix usage of committee index, vs index in committee; uniformly set trailing/following distance; document how the only-broadcast-if mechanism works better and what aggregation already happens, not otherwise sufficiently clear; use correct BlockSlot across epoch boundaries
* address inconsistent notion of which slot in past to target for aggregate broadcast; follow 0.11.x aggregate broadcast p2p interface topic
* Fix get_slot_signature(...) call after get_domain(...) change required genesis_validators_root
* mark all spec references which aren't dealt with in other PRs as v0.11.1
* update two more spec refs to v0.11.1
* initial extended validation setup
* flesh out all TODO items for attestation and beaconblock verification
* fix finalization and add chronicles debugging messages
* directly use blockPool.headState rather than pointlessly updating it and document this constraint
* fix logic relating to first-attestation checking; support validating blocks across multiple forks
* initial 0.11.1 spec commit; no test regressions and finalizes in eth2_network_simulation
* with BLS 0.10/0.11 available, stop skipping attester slashing, proposer slashing, and voluntary exist operations fixture tests
* switch param orders to group state.{fork, genesis_validators_root}; bump spec/datatypes spec version for network purposes
* mark attestation construction and broadcast and some minimal/mainnet constants as 0.11.1-compatible; remove phase 1 sharding constants from minimal which don't exist in that preset
* Initial implementation of runtime bls skipping.
Add libnfuzz skipBLSValidation handling, check that it propagates.
* Rename skipBLSValidation -> skipBlsValidation, start skipStateRootValidation
* Replace skipValidation flags with more granular flags.
Also added skipBlockParentRootValidation flag
Mainly replaced with skipBlsValidation but also StateRoot or
BlockParentRootValidation flags where appropriate.
* Adjust interop test to pass when skipping merkle validation.
* Stop skipping validation for mainchain_monitor.
* Remove comment.
* Also skipMerkleValidation for test_beacon_chain_db.
Turns out the DiscV5 code relies heavily on the presence of ENR
records at the moment, so we cannot drive it with ENodes. @kdeme
is working on refactoring that will relax these requirements.
* The bootstrap_nodes.txt file in the node's data dir is now optional
* Log more data on start-up
* Use the latest ENR APIs
* Fix simulation build errors
We no longer discriminate between ENR, MultiAddress or ENode
bootstrap records (all of them are remapped to ENodes).
The discovery loop will stochastically try to reconnect to
accidentally disconnected nodes.
* beacon node code cleanup
* rudimentary error checking on mainnet monitor
* start client even when sending deposit
* work around missing block number exception
* connect to testnet with web3 url
* pretty-print digests in json
* simplify data storage to key-value, tries are not relevant for NBC
* locked-down version of lmdb dependency
* easier to build / maintain on various platforms
* fix slot time navigation, add tests
* skip block proposal if head is more recent already - shouldn't happen
* use correct head when attesting to previous blocks
* log slot start/end processing
* state data cache in block pool
* keep head state around
* more attestation logic in attestation pool
* first fork choice tests (!)
* fix fork choice (it's still likely broken / out of date)
* per honest validator and naïve/simple aggregator attestation specs, move attesting up from halfway to one third of the way through slots
* Update beacon_chain/beacon_node.nim
