* update get_active_validator_indices and get_epoch_committee_count to 0.6.1; rm get_current_epoch_committee_count, get_previous_epoch_committee_count, and get_next_epoch_committee_count; bump state_sim default validator count a bit more
* re-introduce 0.5.1-ish get_active_validator_indices, get_epoch_committee_count as scaffolding for still-0.5.1ish shuffling
* begin 0.6.0: new get_domain/increase_balance/reduce_balance, BeaconState.validator_balances -> BeaconState.balances, some renamed constants, transaction processing changes, SlashableAttestation field name changes, 0.6.0 get_beacon_proposer_index always uses given state's slot, update tests subrepo
* mark get_bitfield_bit/bls_verify_multiple/stat-list-lengths/is_active_validator/is_surround_vote/slot_to_epoch/int_to_bytes/etc as unchanged in 0.6.0; rm Eth1DataVote/maybe_reset_eth1_period and thus adjust expected tree hash test results

* Use the provided empty block instead of mocking one
* Add failing block signing test
* Tests that can't be passed now are now "for information" + indent the "information"/hash given
* rm now-superceded shuffling cache (shuffling is only called from get_crosslinks), which was badly architected due to trying to exist in state; rm one more vestige of previous light-client regime (one more to go, from datatypes)
* fix wrong shuffling list size (active validator size, not validator size) to make consistent with 0.5.1 (will be inconsistent with testnet0); fix typo and change defaults in state_sim
* doAssert a couple of constant relationships necessary to avoid underflow; rm non-spec, unused helper function get_new_recent_block_roots
* refactor separate crosslink_committee_cache and winning_root_participants_cache(s) into StateData object; remove last vestige of previous shuffling cache

* rm gone-in-0.5.0 Proposal, verifyBlockSignature, and slot check which moved to spec function processBlockHeader
* mark get_attestation_participants and get_epoch_committee_count as 0.5.1; finish updating processAttestations to 0.5.1; add kludgy workaround for bug relating to get_winning_roots_etc using crosslink_data_root as index when we have that as ZERO_HASH for all leading to it confusing attesters on different shards; rm BeaconState.latest_attestations, which splits into previous_epoch_attestations and current_epoch_attestations
* Fix CI due to removed latest_attestations field
* add simple bitfield type (fixes#19)
* fix bit endianess to match spec
* consolidate attestation and block logging
* cruft cleanup
* run optimizer on tests, speeds up build
* begin refactoring 0.5.0 epoch transition at justification and finalization
* update processTransfers to 0.5.0 spec
* update get_crosslink_committees_at_slot to 0.5.0 except for noted workaround for pre-0.5.0 spec bug related to epoch boundary conditions, to be flipped in more coordinated way with other epoch processing changes

* refactor epoch processing by implementing 0.5.0's update_registry_and_shuffling_data(...)
* begin 0.5.0 spec update: parent_root -> previous_block_root, BeaconState.justified_epoch -> BeaconState.current_justified_epoch, DOMAIN_PROPOSAL -> DOMAIN_BEACON_BLOCK, temporarily rename BeaconBlockHeader to BeaconBlockHeaderRLP to allow for gradual re-merging without disrupting RLP; mark a few unchanged functions and data types, implement get_temporary_block_header/get_empty_block/should_update_validator_registry/processBlockHeader/cacheState; update a few others
* a dozen or so more trivial mostly comment changes, finding more unchanged parts of 0.5.0
* several more trivial changes; goal is to reduce noise around the upcoming substantial changes (epoch processing, etc)
* remove some redundant state updates
* when attesting late, use correct state / head
* don't send out obsolete attestations
* don't propose obsolete blocks
* remove some more resundant state updates :)
* simplify block logging (experimental)
* document fork choice division
* fix some Slot / Epoch conversion warnings
* fix state db lookup typo
* fix randao reveal slot when proposing blocks
* only store blocks that can be applied to a state
* store state at every epoch boundary (yes, needs pruning!)
* split out state advancement function when there's no block
* default state sim to 0.9 attestation ratio
* processEpoch 5x faster, total 2x faster, with 16k validators
* don't recompute active_validator_indices as much
* remove duplicate process_ejections function
* prevent balance underflow, per spec implementation note
* verify that permutation shuffing works: add YAML dependency to be used for ingesting test cases; switch from blake2 to keccak256 to match EF test cases; remove inefficient naive-spec-version of shuffling algorithm now that protolambda's can be tested directly
* Complete scan through v0.3.0 spec; remaining known discreptancy is in bls_verify_multiple
* switch remaining slot-misuses of get_active_validator_indices to epochs
* spec workaround
* finish first 0.3.0 pass by getting slow, naive version of bls_verify_multiple running
* implement in-memory block graph
* store tail block in database
* resolve unknown parents by syncing them from peers
* introduce concept of resolved blocks and attestations - those that
follow minimal protocol rules
* update state head lazily
* log more stuff
* shortHash -> shortLog
* start 9/10 beacon nodes by default, last can be started manually
* see also #134
* fix start.sh epoch length
* convert some asserts to doAsserts to keep them in release mode builds; rename get_initial_beacon_state to get_genesis_beacon_state to track spec; switch target spec version to 0.3.0; switch references to penalize_validator to slash_validator/slashValidator to track spec; make some function returns safer by omitting 'return'
* 2x shuffling speedup by hoisting pivot calculations per https://github.com/protolambda/eth2-shuffle
* fix initial attestation pool on reordered attestations
* simplify db layer api
* load head block from database on startup, then load state
