ncli_db: add putState, putBlock (#3096)
* ncli_db: add putState, putBlock

These tools allow modifying an existing nimbus database for the purpose
of recovery or reorg, moving the head, tail and genesis to arbitrary
points.

* remove potentially expensive `putState` in `BeaconStateDB`
* introduce `latest_block_root` which computes the root of the latest
applied block from the `latest_block_header` field (instead of passing
it in separately)
* avoid some unnecessary BeaconState copies during init
* discover https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/19094
* prefer `HashedBeaconState` in a few places to avoid recomputing state
root
* fetch latest block root from state when creating blocks
* harden `get_beacon_proposer_index` against invalid slots and document
* move random spec function tests to `test_spec.nim`
* avoid unnecessary state root computation before block proposal

altair fork handling cleanups (#3050)
* fix stack overflow crash in REST/debug/getStateV2
* introduce `ForkyXxx` for generic type matching of `Xxx` across
branches (SomeHashedBeaconState -> ForkyHashedBeaconState et al) -
`Some` is already used for other types of type classes
* consolidate function naming in BeaconChainDB, use some generics
* import `forks.nim` from other spec modules and move `Forked*` helpers
around to resolve circular imports
* remove `ForkedBeaconState`, use `ForkedHashedBeaconState` throughout
(less data shuffling between the types)
* fix several cases of states being stored on stack in tests, causing
random failures on some platforms
* remove reading json support from ncli - this should be ported to the
rest json reading instead (doesn't currently work because stack sizes)

reward accounting for altair+ (#2981)
Similar to the existing `RewardInfo`, this PR adds the infrastructure
needed to export epoch processing information from altair+. Because
accounting is done somewhat differently, the PR uses a fork-specific
object to extrct the information in order to make the cost on the spec
side low.

* RewardInfo -> EpochInfo, ForkedEpochInfo
* use array for computing new sync committee
* avoid repeated total active balance computations in block processing
* simplify proposer index check
* simplify epoch transition tests
* pre-compute base increment and reuse in epoch processing, and a few
other small optimizations

This PR introduces the type and does the heavy lifting in terms of
refactoring - the tools that use the accounting will need separate PR:s
(as well as refinements to the exportred information)

allow adding Altair test blocks (#2872)
testblockutil currently fails to add test blocks to Altair state because
it assumes phase0 blocks in various places. This patch corrects this
limitation by using forked types internally. Note that existing clients
so far solely operate on phase0 blocks and should eventually be updated.

disentangle eth2 types from the ssz library (#2785)
* reorganize ssz dependencies

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

rework spec imports (#2779)
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

update validator key cache on startup (#2760)
* update validator key cache on startup

Versions prior to 1.1.0 do not write a validator key cache at all.

Versions from 1.4.0 and upwards require an immutable validator key cache
to verify blocks - normally, block verification fills the cache but that
assumes that at least one block was verified by a version that has the
key cache.

Taken together, this breaks direct upgrades from anything <1.1.0 to
1.4.0.

The fix is simply to refresh fill the cache from an existing state on
startup.

* also log serious block validation failures at info level

Implement split preset/config support (#2710)
* Implement split preset/config support

This is the initial bulk refactor to introduce runtime config values in
a number of places, somewhat replacing the existing mechanism of loading
network metadata.

It still needs more work, this is the initial refactor that introduces
runtime configuration in some of the places that need it.

The PR changes the way presets and constants work, to match the spec. In
particular, a "preset" now refers to the compile-time configuration
while a "cfg" or "RuntimeConfig" is the dynamic part.

A single binary can support either mainnet or minimal, but not both.
Support for other presets has been removed completely (can be readded,
in case there's need).

There's a number of outstanding tasks:

* `SECONDS_PER_SLOT` still needs fixing
* loading custom runtime configs needs redoing
* checking constants against YAML file

* yeerongpilly support

`build/nimbus_beacon_node --network=yeerongpilly --discv5:no --log-level=DEBUG`

* cleanups

* bundle mainnet config using common loader
* fix spec links and names

Jacek Sieka abe0d7b4ae singe validator key cache
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

Jacek Sieka 4ed2e34a9e Revamp attestation pool
This is a revamp of the attestation pool that cleans up several aspects
of attestation processing as the network grows larger and block space
becomes more precious.

The aim is to better exploit the divide between attestation subnets and
aggregations by keeping the two kinds separate until it's time to either
produce a block or aggregate. This means we're no longer eagerly
combining single-vote attestations, but rather wait until the last
moment, and then try to add singles to all aggregates, including those
coming from the network.

Importantly, the branch improves on poor aggregate quality and poor
attestation packing in cases where block space is running out.

A basic greed scoring mechanism is used to select attestations for
blocks - attestations are added based on how much many new votes they
bring to the table.

* Collect single-vote attestations separately and store these until it's
time to make aggregates
* Create aggregates based on single-vote attestations
* Select _best_ aggregate rather than _first_ aggregate when on
aggregation duty
* Top up all aggregates with singles when it's time make the attestation
cut, thus improving the chances of grabbing the best aggregates out
there
* Improve aggregation test coverage
* Improve bitseq operations
* Simplify aggregate signature creation
* Make attestation cache temporary instead of storing it in attestation
pool - most of the time, blocks are not being produced, no need to keep
the data around
* Remove redundant aggregate storage that was used only for RPC
* Use tables to avoid some linear seeks when looking up attestation data
* Fix long cleanup on large slot jumps
* Avoid some pointers
* Speed up iterating all attestations for a slot (fixes #2490)

Block validation flow v2 + Batch (serial) sig verification (#2250)
* bump nim-blscurve

* Outline the block validation flow

* introduce the SigVerified types, pass the tests

* Split clearance/quarantine to prepare for batch crypto verif

* Add a batch signature collector

* Make clearance use SigVerified block and split verification between crypto and state transition

* Always use signedBeaconBlock for the onBlockAdded callback

* RANDAO signing_root is the epoch instead of the full block

* Support skipping BLS for testing

* Fix compilation of the validator client

* Try to fix strange errors MacOS and Jenkins (Clang, unknown type name br_hmac_drbg_context in stdlib_assertions.nim.c)

* address https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2250#discussion_r561819858

* address https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2250#discussion_r561828025

* onBlockAdded callback should use TrustedSignedBeaconBlock https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2250#discussion_r561837261

* address https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2250#discussion_r561828946

* Use the application RNG: https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2250#discussion_r561815336

* Improve codegen of conversion zero-cost)

* Quick fixes with loadWithCache after #2259 (TODO: graceful error since pubkey validations is now done first in signatures_batch)

* Graceful handle rogue pubkeys and signatures now that those are lazy-loaded

save some more states after all (#1887)
Don't save states when replaying history, but do save states when
applying new blocks (!)

fix db growth on attestation processing (#1860)
It turns out that we often save lots of states in the database that are
the result of empty slot processing only - here, we make sure to only
save a state if a block follows - this fixes several issues:

* empty slot states are not always pruned leading to state database size
explosion
* storing states is (very) slow which slows down processing in general,
so we should only do it when it's likely to be useful
* attestation processing doesn't get stuck on saving random states that
won't appear in the chain history

Quick fix to prune some states, pending smarter state storage (#1624)
* Quick fix to prune some states, pending smarter state storage

Adverse effects might include slow rewinds - typically the protocol
doesn't ask for pre-finalized states but RPC might

* document issue, add test

* fix cache miss log

* add additional logging for block quarantining

* re-add quarantine.add() call

* remove pre-finalization blocks; add logging for full quarantine

* clear quarantine on chain reorganization

* update block_sim and tests

implement clock disparity for attestation validation (#1568)
This implements disparity, resolving a part of
https://github.com/status-im/nim-beacon-chain/issues/1367

* make BeaconTime a duration for fractional seconds
* factor out attestation/aggregate validation
* simplify recording of queued attestations
* simplify attestation signature check
* fix blocks_received metric
* add some trivial validation tests
* remove unresolved attestation table - attestations for unknown blocks
are dropped instead (cannot verify their signature)
