c895dc8971 Shift HTTP server heavy-lifting to blocking executor (#1518)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Shift practically all HTTP endpoint handlers to the blocking executor (some very light tasks are left on the core executor).

## Additional Info

This PR covers the `rest_api` which will soon be refactored to suit the standard API. As such, I've cut a few corners and left some existing issues open in this patch. What I have done here should leave the API in state that is not necessary *exactly* the same, but good enough for us to run validators with. Specifically, the number of blocking workers that can be spawned is unbounded and I have not implemented a queue; this will need to be fixed when we implement the standard API.

2bc9115a94 reuse beacon_node methods for initializing network configs in boot_node (#1520)
## Issue Addressed

#1378

## Proposed Changes

Boot node reuses code from beacon_node to initialize network config. This also enables using the network directory to store/load the enr and the private key.

## Additional Info

Note that before this PR the port cli arguments were off (the argument was named `enr-port` but used as `boot-node-enr-port`).
Therefore as port always the cli port argument was used (for both enr and listening). Now the enr-port argument can be used to overwrite the listening port as the public port others should connect to.

Last but not least note, that this restructuring reuses `ethlibp2p::NetworkConfig` that has many more options than the ones used in the boot node. For example the network config has an own `discv5_config` field that gets never used in the boot node and instead another `Discv5Config` gets created later in the boot node process.

3f0a113c7f ban IP addresses if too many banned peers for this IP address (#1543)
## Issue Addressed

#1283 

## Proposed Changes

All peers with the same IP will be considered banned as long as there are more than 5 (constant) peers with this IP that have a score below the ban threshold. As soon as some of those 5 peers get unbanned (through decay) and if there are then less than 5 peers with a score below the threshold the IP will be considered not banned anymore.

bbed42f30c Refactor attestation service (#1415)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

Refactor attestation service to send out requests to find peers for subnets as soon as we get attestation duties. 
Earlier, we had much more involved logic to send the discovery requests to the discovery service only 6 slots before the attestation slot. Now that discovery is much smarter with grouped queries, the complexity in attestation service can be reduced considerably.

fdc6e2aa8e Shutdown like a Sir (#1545)
## Issue Addressed
#1494 

## Proposed Changes
- Give the TaskExecutor the sender side of a channel that a task can clone to request shutting down
- The receiver side of this channel is in environment and now we block until ctrl+c or an internal shutdown signal is received
- The swarm now informs when it has reached 0 listeners
- The network receives this message and requests the shutdown

8e7dd7b2b1 Add remaining network ops to queuing system (#1546)
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes

- Refactors the `BeaconProcessor` to remove some excessive nesting and file bloat
  - Sorry about the noise from this, it's all contained in 4d3f8c5 though.
- Adds exits, proposer slashings, attester slashings to the `BeaconProcessor` so we don't get overwhelmed with large amounts of slashings (which happened a few hours ago).

2d0b214b57 Clean up logs (#1541)
## Description

This PR improves some logging for the end-user. 

It downgrades some warning logs and removes the slots per second sync speed if we are syncing and the speed is 0. This is likely because we are syncing from a finalised checkpoint and the head doesn't change.

## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Fixes a mistake I made in #1530 which resulted us in *not* rejecting attestations that we intended to reject.
- Adds skip-slot checks for blocks earlier in import process, so it rejects gossip and RPC blocks.

8311074d68 Purge out-dated head chains on chain completion (#1538)
## Description

There can be many head chains queued up to complete. Currently we try and process all of these to completion before we consider the node synced. 

In a chaotic network, there can be many of these and processing them to completion can be very expensive and slow. This PR removes any non-syncing head chains from the queue, and re-status's the peers. If, after we have synced to head on one chain, there is still a valid head chain to download, it will be re-established once the status has been returned. 

This should assist with getting nodes to sync on medalla faster.

3bb30754d9 Keep track of failed head chains and prevent re-lookups (#1534)
## Overview

There are forked chains which get referenced by blocks and attestations on a network. Typically if these chains are very long, we stop looking up the chain and downvote the peer. In extreme circumstances, many peers are on many chains, the chains can be very deep and become time consuming performing lookups. 

This PR adds a cache to known failed chain lookups. This prevents us from starting a parent-lookup (or stopping one half way through) if we have attempted the chain lookup in the past.

cc44a64d15 Limit parallelism of head chain sync (#1527)
## Description

Currently lighthouse load-balances across peers a single finalized chain. The chain is selected via the most peers. Once synced to the latest finalized epoch Lighthouse creates chains amongst its peers and syncs them all in parallel amongst each peer (grouped by their current head block). 

This is typically fast and relatively efficient under normal operations. However if the chain has not finalized in a long time, the head chains can grow quite long. Peer's head chains will update every slot as new blocks are added to the head. Syncing all head chains in parallel is a bottleneck and highly inefficient in block duplication leads to RPC timeouts when attempting to handle all new heads chains at once. 

This PR limits the parallelism of head syncing chains to 2. We now sync at most two head chains at a time. This allows for the possiblity of sync progressing alongside a peer being slow and holding up one chain via RPC timeouts.

46dbf027af Do not reset batch ids & redownload out of range batches (#1528)
The changes are somewhat simple but should solve two issues:
- When quickly changing between chains once and a second time back again, batchIds would collide and cause havoc. 
- If we got an out of range response from a peer, sync would remain in syncing but without advancing

Changes:
- remove the batch id. Identify each batch (inside a chain) by its starting epoch. Target epochs for downloading and processing now advance by EPOCHS_PER_BATCH
- for the same reason, move the "to_be_downloaded_id" to be an epoch
- remove a sneaky line that dropped an out of range batch without downloading it
- bonus: put the chain_id in the log given to the chain. This is why explicitly logging the chain_id is removed

719a69aee0 Ignore blocks that skip a large distance from their parent (#1530)
## Proposed Changes

To mitigate the impact of minority forks on RAM and disk usage, this change rejects blocks whose parent lies more than 320 slots (10 epochs, ~1 hour) in the past. The behaviour is configurable via `lighthouse bn --max-skip-slots N`, and can be turned off entirely using `--max-skip-slots none`.

61d5b592cb Memory usage reduction (#1522)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Adds a new function to allow getting a state with a bad state root history for attestation verification. This reduces unnecessary tree hashing during attestation processing, which accounted for 23% of memory allocations (by bytes) in a recent `heaptrack` observation.
- Don't clone caches on intermediate epoch-boundary states during block processing.
- Reject blocks that are known to fork choice earlier during gossip processing, instead of waiting until after state has been loaded (this only happens in edge-case).
- Avoid multiple re-allocations by creating a "forced" exact size iterator.

850a2d5985 Persist metadata and enr across restarts (#1513)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #1489 

## Proposed Changes

- Change starting metadata seq num to 0 according to the [spec](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/dev/specs/phase0/p2p-interface.md#metadata).
- Remove metadata field from `NetworkGlobals`
- Persist metadata to disk on every update
- Load metadata seq number from disk on restart
- Persist enr to disk on update to ensure enr sequence number increments are persisted as well.

## Additional info

Since we modified starting metadata seq num to 0 from 1, we might still see `Invalid Sequence number provided` like in #1489  from prysm nodes if they have our metadata cached.

619ad106cf Restrict fork choice getters to finalized blocks (#1475)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1451

## Proposed Changes

- Restricts the `contains_block` and `contains_block` so they only indicate a block is present if it descends from the finalized root. This helps to ensure that fork choice never points to a block that has been pruned from the database.
- Resolves #1451
- Before importing a block, double-check that its parent is known and a descendant of the finalized root.
- Split a big, monolithic block verification test into smaller tests. 

## Additional Notes

I suspect there would be a craftier way to do the `is_descendant_of_finalized` check, but we're a bit tight on time now and we can optimize later if it starts showing in benches.

e3d45eda1e Log to file without json format (#1485)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

Earlier, to log to a file, the only options were to redirect stdout/stderr to a file or use json logging. 
Redirecting to stdout/stderr works well but causes issues with mistakenly overwriting the file instead of appending which has resulted in loss of precious logs on multiple occasions for me.

Json logging creates a timestamped backup of the file if it already exists, but the json format itself is hugely annoying.

This PR modifies the `--logfile` option to log as it does in the terminal to a logfile.

b063df5bf9 Cross-compile to vendored x86_84, aarch64 (Raspberry Pi 4) (#1497)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Adds support for using the [`cross`](https://github.com/rust-embedded/cross) project to produce cross-compiled binaries using Docker images.

Provides quite clean and simple cross-compiles cause all the complexity is hidden in Dockerfiles. It does require you to be in the `docker` group though.

## Details

- Adds shortcut commands to `Makefile`
- Ensures `reqwest` and `discv5` use vendored openssl libs (i.e., static not shared).
- Switches to a [commit](284f705964) of blst that has a renamed C function to avoid a collision with openssl (upstream issue: https://github.com/supranational/blst/issues/21).
- Updates `ring` to the latest satisfiable version, since an earlier version was causing issues with `cross`.
- Off-topic, but adds extra message about Windows support as suggested by Discord user.

## Additional Info

- ~~Blocked on #1495~~
- There are no tests in CI for this yet for a few reasons:
  - I'm hesitant to add more long-running tasks.
  - Short-term bitrot should be avoided since we'll use it each release.
  - In the long term I think it would be good to automate binary creation on a release.
- I observed the binaries increase in size from 50mb to 52mb after these changes.

cbfae87aa6 Upgrade logs (#1495)

#1483 

## Proposed Changes

Upgrades the log to a critical if a listener fails. We are able to listen on many interfaces so a single instance is not critical. We should however gracefully shutdown the client if we have no listeners, although the client can still function solely on outgoing connections.

For now a critical is raised and I leave #1494 for more sophisticated handling of this. 

This also updates discv5 to handle errors of binding to a UDP socket such that lighthouse is now able to handle them.

04e4389efe Patch gossipsub (#1490)
## Issue Addressed

Some nodes not following head, high CPU usage and HTTP API delays

## Proposed Changes

Patches gossipsub. Gossipsub was using an `lru_time_cache` to check for duplicates. This contained an `O(N)` lookup for every gossipsub message to update the time cache. This was causing high cpu usage and blocking network threads. 

This PR introduces a custom cache without `O(N)` inserts. 

This also adds built in safety mechanisms to prevent gossipsub from excessively retrying connections upon failure. A maximum limit is set after which we disconnect from the node from too many failed substream connections.
