59b2247ab8 Improve UX whilst VC is waiting for genesis (#1915)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1424

## Proposed Changes

Add a `GET lighthouse/staking` that returns 200 if the node is ready to stake (i.e., `--eth1` flag is present) or a 404 otherwise.

Whilst the VC is waiting for the genesis time to start (i.e., when the genesis state is known), check the `lighthouse/staking` endpoint and log an error if the node isn't configured for staking.

3db9072fee Reject invalid utf-8 characters during encryption (#1928)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1889 

## Proposed Changes

- Error when passwords which use invalid UTF-8 characters during encryption. 
- Add some tests

## Additional Info

I've decided to error when bad characters are used to create/encrypt a keystore but think we should allow them during decryption since either the keystore was created
-  with invalid UTF-8 characters (possibly by another client or someone whose password is random bytes) in which case we'd want them to be able to decrypt their keystore using the right key.
-  without invalid characters then the password checksum would almost certainly fail.

Happy to add them to decryption if we want to make the decryption more trigger happy 😋 , it would only be a one line change and would tell the user which character index is causing the issue.

79fd9b32b9 Update pool/attestations and committees endpoints (#1899)
## Issue Addressed

Catching up on a few eth2 spec updates:

## Proposed Changes

b711cfe2bb Improve validator key cache lock handling (#1837)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Improves the deletion of the validator key cache lock file in case of program interrupts.

## Additional Info

This should reduce cases where a lock file doesn't get removed on shutdown and reduce complaints on Discord. This will be superseded by issue #1823.

36bd4d87f0 Update to spec v1.0.0-rc.0 and BLSv4 (#1765)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1504 
Closes #1505
Replaces #1703
Closes #1707

## Proposed Changes

* Update BLST and Milagro to versions compatible with BLSv4 spec
* Update Lighthouse to spec v1.0.0-rc.0, and update EF test vectors
* Use the v1.0.0 constants for `MainnetEthSpec`.
* Rename `InteropEthSpec` -> `V012LegacyEthSpec`
    * Change all constants to suit the mainnet `v0.12.3` specification (i.e., Medalla).
* Deprecate the `--spec` flag for the `lighthouse` binary
    * This value is now obtained from the `config_name` field of the `YamlConfig`.
        * Built in testnet YAML files have been updated.
    * Ignore the `--spec` value, if supplied, log a warning that it will be deprecated
    * `lcli` still has the spec flag, that's fine because it's dev tooling.
* Remove the `E: EthSpec` from `YamlConfig`
    * This means we need to deser the genesis `BeaconState` on-demand, but this is fine.
* Swap the old "minimal", "mainnet" strings over to the new `EthSpecId` enum.
* Always require a `CONFIG_NAME` field in `YamlConfig` (it used to have a default).

## Additional Info

Lots of breaking changes, do not merge! ~~We will likely need a Lighthouse v0.4.0 branch, and possibly a long-term v0.3.0 branch to keep Medalla alive~~.

f157d61cc7 Address clippy lints, panic in ssz_derive on overflow (#1714)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Panic or return error if we overflow `usize` in SSZ decoding/encoding derive macros.
  - I claim that the panics can only be triggered by a faulty type definition in lighthouse, they cannot be triggered externally on a validly defined struct.
- Use `Ordering` instead of some `if` statements, as demanded by clippy.
- Remove some old clippy `allow` that seem to no longer be required.
- Add comments to interesting clippy statements that we're going to continue to ignore.
- Create #1713

a3704b971e Support pre-flight CORS check (#1772)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1766 

## Proposed Changes

- Use the `warp::filters::cors` filter instead of our work-around.

## Additional Info

It's not trivial to enable/disable `cors` using `warp`, since using `routes.with(cors)` changes the type of `routes`.  This makes it difficult to apply/not apply cors at runtime. My solution has been to *always* use the `warp::filters::cors` wrapper but when cors should be disabled, just pass the HTTP server listen address as the only permissible origin.

467de4c8d0 Add docs for slashing protection (#1760)
## Proposed Changes

* Add documentation about slashing protection, including how to troubleshoot issues and move between clients.
* Add an error message if the validator client is started with 0 validators. Previously it would hit an error relating to the slashing protection database not existing, which wrongly pushed people towards using the unsafe `--init-slashing-protection` flag.

e9d5bade36 Fixed cross-compiling by replacing wget with curl (#1759)
It looks like the default docker image used by cross doesn't have
wget installed. This causes builds to fail. This can be fixed by
switching to curl.

## Issue Addressed
cross-compiling was broken (at least for build-aarch64)

## Proposed Changes

59adc5ba00 Implement key cache to reduce keystore loading times for validator_client (#1695)
## Issue Addressed

#1618 

## Proposed Changes

Adds an encrypted key cache that is loaded on validator_client startup. It stores the keypairs for all enabled keystores and uses as password the concatenation the passwords of all enabled keystores. This reduces the number of time intensive key derivitions for `N` validators from `N` to `1`. On changes the cache gets updated asynchronously to avoid blocking the main thread.

## Additional Info

If the cache contains the keypair of a keystore that is not in the validator_definitions.yml file during loading the cache cannot get decrypted. In this case all the keystores get decrypted and then the cache gets overwritten. To avoid that one can disable keystores in validator_definitions.yml and restart the client which will remove them from the cache, after that one can entirely remove the keystore (from the validator_definitions.yml and from the disk). 

Other solutions to the above "problem" might be:
* Add a CLI and/or API function for removing keystores which will update the cache (asynchronously).
* Add a CLI and/or API function that just updates the cache (asynchronously) after a modification of the `validator_definitions.yml` file.

Note that the cache file has a lock file which gets removed immediatly after the cache was used or updated.

Add UPnP support for Lighthouse (#1587)
This commit was modified by Paul H whilst rebasing master onto
v0.3.0-staging

Adding UPnP support will help grow the DHT by allowing NAT traversal for peers with UPnP supported routers.

Using IGD library: https://docs.rs/igd/0.10.0/igd/

Adding the  the libp2p tcp port and discovery udp port. If this fails it simply logs the attempt and moves on

6ea3bc5e52 Implement VC API (#1657)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Implements a HTTP API for the validator client.
- Creates EIP-2335 keystores with an empty `description` field, instead of a missing `description` field. Adds option to set name.
- Be more graceful with setups without any validators (yet)
    - Remove an error log when there are no validators.
    - Create the `validator` dir if it doesn't exist.
- Allow building a `ValidatorDir` without a withdrawal keystore (required for the API method where we only post a voting keystore).
- Add optional `description` field to `validator_definitions.yml`

## TODO

- [x] Signature header, as per https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1269#issuecomment-649879855
- [x] Return validator descriptions
- [x] Return deposit data
- [x] Respect the mnemonic offset
- [x] Check that mnemonic can derive returned keys
- [x] Be strict about non-localhost
- [x] Allow graceful start without any validators (+ create validator dir)
- [x] Docs final pass
- [x] Swap to EIP-2335 description field. 
- [x] Fix Zerioze TODO in VC api types.
- [x] Zeroize secp256k1 key

1d278aaa83 Implement slashing protection interchange format (#1544)
## Issue Addressed

Implements support for importing and exporting the slashing protection DB interchange format described here:

https://hackmd.io/@sproul/Bk0Y0qdGD

Also closes #1584 

## Proposed Changes

* [x] Support for serializing and deserializing the format
* [x] Support for importing and exporting Lighthouse's database
* [x] CLI commands to invoke import and export
* [x] Export to minimal format (required when a minimal format has been previously imported)
* [x] Tests for export to minimal (utilising mixed importing and attestation signing?)
* [x] Tests for import/export of complete format, and import of minimal format
* [x] ~~Prevent attestations with sources less than our max source (Danny's suggestion). Required for the fake attestation that we put in for the minimal format to block attestations from source 0.~~
* [x] Add the concept of a "low watermark" for compatibility with the minimal format

Bonus!

* [x] A fix to a potentially nasty bug involving validators getting re-registered each time the validator client ran! Thankfully, the ordering of keys meant that the validator IDs used for attestations and blocks remained stable -- otherwise we could have had some slashings on our hands! 😱
* [x] Tests to confirm that this bug is indeed vanquished

Implement standard eth2.0 API (#1569)
- Resolves #1550
- Resolves #824
- Resolves #825
- Resolves #1131
- Resolves #1411
- Resolves #1256
- Resolve #1177

- Includes the `ShufflingId` struct initially defined in #1492. That PR is now closed and the changes are included here, with significant bug fixes.
- Implement the https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs in a new `http_api` crate using `warp`. This replaces the `rest_api` crate.
- Add a new `common/eth2` crate which provides a wrapper around `reqwest`, providing the HTTP client that is used by the validator client and for testing. This replaces the `common/remote_beacon_node` crate.
- Create a `http_metrics` crate which is a dedicated server for Prometheus metrics (they are no longer served on the same port as the REST API). We now have flags for `--metrics`, `--metrics-address`, etc.
- Allow the `subnet_id` to be an optional parameter for `VerifiedUnaggregatedAttestation::verify`. This means it does not need to be provided unnecessarily by the validator client.
- Move `fn map_attestation_committee` in `mod beacon_chain::attestation_verification` to a new `fn with_committee_cache` on the `BeaconChain` so the same cache can be used for obtaining validator duties.
- Add some other helpers to `BeaconChain` to assist with common API duties (e.g., `block_root_at_slot`, `head_beacon_block_root`).
- Change the `NaiveAggregationPool` so it can index attestations by `hash_tree_root(attestation.data)`. This is a requirement of the API.
- Add functions to `BeaconChainHarness` to allow it to create slashings and exits.
- Allow for `eth1::Eth1NetworkId` to go to/from a `String`.
- Add functions to the `OperationPool` to allow getting all objects in the pool.
- Add function to `BeaconState` to check if a committee cache is initialized.
- Fix bug where `seconds_per_eth1_block` was not transferring over from `YamlConfig` to `ChainSpec`.
- Add the `deposit_contract_address` to `YamlConfig` and `ChainSpec`. We needed to be able to return it in an API response.
- Change some uses of serde `serialize_with` and `deserialize_with` to a single use of `with` (code quality).
- Impl `Display` and `FromStr` for several BLS fields.
- Check for clock discrepancy when VC polls BN for sync state (with +/- 1 slot tolerance). This is not intended to be comprehensive, it was just easy to do.

- See #1434 for a per-endpoint overview.
- Seeking clarity here: https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs/issues/75

- [x] Add docs for prom port to close #1256
- [x] Follow up on this #1177
- [x] ~~Follow up with #1424~~ Will fix in future PR.
- [x] Follow up with #1411
- [x] ~~Follow up with  #1260~~ Will fix in future PR.
- [x] Add quotes to all integers.
- [x] Remove `rest_types`
- [x] Address missing beacon block error. (#1629)
- [x] ~~Add tests for lighthouse/peers endpoints~~ Wontfix
- [x] ~~Follow up with validator status proposal~~ Tracked in #1434
- [x] Unify graffiti structs
- [x] ~~Start server when waiting for genesis?~~ Will fix in future PR.
- [x] TODO in http_api tests
- [x] Move lighthouse endpoints off /eth/v1
- [x] Update docs to link to standard

- ~~Blocked on #1586~~

Directory restructure (#1532)
Closes #1487
Closes #1427

Directory restructure in accordance with #1487. Also has temporary migration code to move the old directories into new structure.
Also extracts all default directory names and utility functions into a `directory` crate to avoid repetitio.

~Since `validator_definition.yaml` stores absolute paths, users will have to manually change the keystore paths or delete the file to get the validators picked up by the vc.~. `validator_definition.yaml` is migrated as well from the default directories.

Fix validator lockfiles (#1586)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1313 

## Proposed Changes

Changes the way we start the validator client and beacon node to ensure that we cleanly drop the validator keystores (which therefore ensures we cleanup their lockfiles).

Previously we were holding the validator keystores in a tokio task that was being forcefully killed (i.e., without `Drop`). Now, we hold them in a task that can gracefully handle a shutdown.

Also, switches the `--strict-lockfiles` flag to `--delete-lockfiles`. This means two things:

1. We are now strict on lockfiles by default (before we weren't).
1. There's a simple way for people delete the lockfiles if they experience a crash.

## Additional Info

I've only given the option to ignore *and* delete lockfiles, not just ignore them. I can't see a strong need for ignore-only but could easily add it, if the need arises.

I've flagged this as `api-breaking` since users that have lockfiles lingering around will be required to supply `--delete-lockfiles` next time they run.

e26da35cbf Introduce validator definition file for VC (#1357)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Introduces the `valdiator_definitions.yml` file which serves as an explicit list of validators that should be run by the validator client.
  - Removes `--strict` flag, split into `--strict-lockfiles` and `--disable-auto-discover`  
  - Adds a "Validator Management" page to the book.
- Adds the `common/account_utils` crate which contains some logic that was starting to duplicate across the codebase.

The new docs for this feature are the best description of it (apart from the code, I guess): 9cb87e93ce/book/src/validator-management.md

## API Changes

This change should be transparent for *most* existing users. If the `valdiator_definitions.yml` doesn't exist then it will be automatically generated using a method that will detect all the validators in their `validators_dir`.

Users will have issues if they are:

1. Using `--strict`.
1. Have keystores in their `~/.lighthouse/validators` directory that weren't being detected by the current keystore discovery method.

For users with (1), the VC will refuse to start because the `--strict` flag has been removed. They will be forced to review `--help` and choose an equivalent flag.

For users with (2), this seems fairly unlikely and since we're only in testnets there's no *real* value on the line here. I'm happy to take the risk, it would be a different case for mainnet.

## Additional Info

This PR adds functionality we will need for #1347.

## TODO

- [x] Reconsider flags
- [x] Move doc into a more reasonable chapter.
- [x] Check for compile warnings.
