## Proposed Changes
This PR is motivated by a recent consensus failure in Geth where it returned `INVALID` for an `VALID` block. Without this PR, the only way to recover is by re-syncing Lighthouse. Whilst ELs "shouldn't have consensus failures", in reality it's something that we can expect from time to time due to the complex nature of Ethereum. Being able to recover easily will help the network recover and EL devs to troubleshoot.
The risk introduced with this PR is that genuinely INVALID payloads get a "second chance" at being imported. I believe the DoS risk here is negligible since LH needs to be restarted in order to re-process the payload. Furthermore, there's no reason to think that a well-performing EL will accept a truly invalid payload the second-time-around.
## Additional Info
This implementation has the following intricacies:
1. Instead of just resetting *invalid* payloads to optimistic, we'll also reset *valid* payloads. This is an artifact of our existing implementation.
1. We will only reset payload statuses when we detect an invalid payload present in `proto_array`
- This helps save us from forgetting that all our blocks are valid in the "best case scenario" where there are no invalid blocks.
1. If we fail to revert the payload statuses we'll log a `CRIT` and just continue with a `proto_array` that *does not* have reverted payload statuses.
- The code to revert statuses needs to deal with balances and proposer-boost, so it's a failure point. This is a defensive measure to avoid introducing new show-stopping bugs to LH.

## Proposed Changes
Removes three types of TODOs:
1. `execution_layer/src/lib.rs`: It was [determined](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/issues/2636#issuecomment-988688742) that there is no action required here.
2. `beacon_processor/worker/gossip_methods.rs`: Removed TODOs relating to peer scoring that have already been addressed via `epe.penalize_peer()`.
- It seems `cargo fmt` wanted to adjust some things here as well 🤷
3. `proto_array_fork_choice.rs`: it would be nice to remove that useless `bool` for cleanliness, but I don't think it's something we need to do and the TODO just makes things look messier IMO.
## Additional Info
There should be no functional changes to the code in this PR.
There are still some TODOs lingering, those ones require actual changes or more thought.

## Proposed Changes
Ensure that we read the current slot from the `fc_store` rather than the slot clock. This is because the `fc_store` will never allow the slot to go backwards, even if the system clock does. The `ProtoArray::find_head` function assumes a non-decreasing slot.
This issue can cause logs like this:
```
ERRO Error whist recomputing head, error: ForkChoiceError(ProtoArrayError("find_head failed: InvalidBestNode(InvalidBestNodeInfo { start_root: 0xb22655aa2ae23075a60bd40797b3ba220db33d6fb86fa7910f0ed48e34bda72f, justified_checkpoint: Checkpoint { epoch: Epoch(111569), root: 0xb22655aa2ae23075a60bd40797b3ba220db33d6fb86fa7910f0ed48e34bda72f }, finalized_checkpoint: Checkpoint { epoch: Epoch(111568), root: 0x6140797e40c587b0d3f159483bbc603accb7b3af69891979d63efac437f9896f }, head_root: 0xb22655aa2ae23075a60bd40797b3ba220db33d6fb86fa7910f0ed48e34bda72f, head_justified_checkpoint: Some(Checkpoint { epoch: Epoch(111568), root: 0x6140797e40c587b0d3f159483bbc603accb7b3af69891979d63efac437f9896f }), head_finalized_checkpoint: Some(Checkpoint { epoch: Epoch(111567), root: 0x59b913d37383a158a9ea5546a572acc79e2cdfbc904c744744789d2c3814c570 }) })")), service: beacon, module: beacon_chain::canonical_head:499

We expect nodes to automatically recover from this issue within seconds without any major impact. However, having *any* errors in the path of fork choice is undesirable and should be avoided.

## Proposed Changes
This PR will make Lighthouse return blocks with invalid payloads via the API with `execution_optimistic = true`. This seems a bit awkward, however I think it's better than returning a 404 or some other error.
Let's consider the case where the only possible head is invalid (#3370 deals with this). In such a scenario all of the duties endpoints will start failing because the head is invalid. I think it would be better if the duties endpoints continue to work, because it's likely that even though the head is invalid the duties are still based upon valid blocks and we want the VC to have them cached. There's no risk to the VC here because we won't actually produce an attestation pointing to an invalid head.
Ultimately, I don't think it's particularly important for us to distinguish between optimistic and invalid blocks on the API. Neither should be trusted and the only *real* reason that we track this is so we can try and fork around the invalid blocks.
## Additional Info

## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
There are scenarios where the only viable head will have an invalid execution payload, in this scenario the `get_head` function on `proto_array` will return an error. We must recover from this scenario by importing blocks from the network.
This PR stops `BeaconChain::recompute_head` from returning an error so that we can't accidentally start down-scoring peers or aborting block import just because the current head has an invalid payload.
## Reviewer Notes
The following changes are included:
1. Allow `fork_choice.get_head` to fail gracefully in `BeaconChain::process_block` when trying to update the `early_attester_cache`; simply don't add the block to the cache rather than aborting the entire process.
1. Don't return an error from `BeaconChain::recompute_head_at_current_slot` and `BeaconChain::recompute_head` to defensively prevent calling functions from aborting any process just because the fork choice function failed to run.
- This should have practically no effect, since most callers were still continuing if recomputing the head failed.
- The outlier is that the API will return 200 rather than a 500 when fork choice fails.
1. Add the `ProtoArrayForkChoice::set_all_blocks_to_optimistic` function to recover from the scenario where we've rebooted and the persisted fork choice has an invalid head.

## Proposed Changes
After some discussion in Discord with @mkalinin it was raised that it was not the intention of the engine API to have CLs validate the `latest_valid_hash` (LVH) and all ancestors.
Whilst I believe the engine API is being updated such that the LVH *must* identify a valid hash or be set to some junk value, I'm not confident that we can rely upon the LVH as being valid (at least for now) due to the confusion surrounding it.
Being able to validate blocks via the LVH is a relatively minor optimisation; if the LVH value ends up becoming our head we'll send an fcU and get the VALID status there.
Falsely marking a block as valid has serious consequences and since it's a minor optimisation to use LVH I think that we don't take the risk.
For clarity, we will still *invalidate* the *descendants* of the LVH, we just wont *validate* the *ancestors*.

## Overview
This rather extensive PR achieves two primary goals:
1. Uses the finalized/justified checkpoints of fork choice (FC), rather than that of the head state.
2. Refactors fork choice, block production and block processing to `async` functions.
Additionally, it achieves:
- Concurrent forkchoice updates to the EL and cache pruning after a new head is selected.
- Concurrent "block packing" (attestations, etc) and execution payload retrieval during block production.
- Concurrent per-block-processing and execution payload verification during block processing.
- The `Arc`-ification of `SignedBeaconBlock` during block processing (it's never mutated, so why not?):
- I had to do this to deal with sending blocks into spawned tasks.
- Previously we were cloning the beacon block at least 2 times during each block processing, these clones are either removed or turned into cheaper `Arc` clones.
- We were also `Box`-ing and un-`Box`-ing beacon blocks as they moved throughout the networking crate. This is not a big deal, but it's nice to avoid shifting things between the stack and heap.
- Avoids cloning *all the blocks* in *every chain segment* during sync.
- It also has the potential to clean up our code where we need to pass an *owned* block around so we can send it back in the case of an error (I didn't do much of this, my PR is already big enough 😅)
- The `BeaconChain::HeadSafetyStatus` struct was removed. It was an old relic from prior merge specs.
For motivation for this change, see https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3244#issuecomment-1160963273
## Changes to `canonical_head` and `fork_choice`
Previously, the `BeaconChain` had two separate fields:
```
canonical_head: RwLock<Snapshot>,
fork_choice: RwLock<BeaconForkChoice>
```
Now, we have grouped these values under a single struct:
```
canonical_head: CanonicalHead {
cached_head: RwLock<Arc<Snapshot>>,
fork_choice: RwLock<BeaconForkChoice>
}
```
Apart from ergonomics, the only *actual* change here is wrapping the canonical head snapshot in an `Arc`. This means that we no longer need to hold the `cached_head` (`canonical_head`, in old terms) lock when we want to pull some values from it. This was done to avoid deadlock risks by preventing functions from acquiring (and holding) the `cached_head` and `fork_choice` locks simultaneously.
## Breaking Changes
### The `state` (root) field in the `finalized_checkpoint` SSE event
Consider the scenario where epoch `n` is just finalized, but `start_slot(n)` is skipped. There are two state roots we might in the `finalized_checkpoint` SSE event:
1. The state root of the finalized block, which is `get_block(finalized_checkpoint.root).state_root`.
4. The state root at slot of `start_slot(n)`, which would be the state from (1), but "skipped forward" through any skip slots.
Previously, Lighthouse would choose (2). However, we can see that when [Teku generates that event](de2b2801c8/data/beaconrestapi/src/main/java/tech/pegasys/teku/beaconrestapi/handlers/v1/events/EventSubscriptionManager.java (L171-L182)) it uses [`getStateRootFromBlockRoot`](de2b2801c8/data/provider/src/main/java/tech/pegasys/teku/api/ChainDataProvider.java (L336-L341)) which uses (1).
I have switched Lighthouse from (2) to (1). I think it's a somewhat arbitrary choice between the two, where (1) is easier to compute and is consistent with Teku.
## Notes for Reviewers
I've renamed `BeaconChain::fork_choice` to `BeaconChain::recompute_head`. Doing this helped ensure I broke all previous uses of fork choice and I also find it more descriptive. It describes an action and can't be confused with trying to get a reference to the `ForkChoice` struct.
I've changed the ordering of SSE events when a block is received. It used to be `[block, finalized, head]` and now it's `[block, head, finalized]`. It was easier this way and I don't think we were making any promises about SSE event ordering so it's not "breaking".
I've made it so fork choice will run when it's first constructed. I did this because I wanted to have a cached version of the last call to `get_head`. Ensuring `get_head` has been run *at least once* means that the cached values doesn't need to wrapped in an `Option`. This was fairly simple, it just involved passing a `slot` to the constructor so it knows *when* it's being run. When loading a fork choice from the store and a slot clock isn't handy I've just used the `slot` that was saved in the `fork_choice_store`. That seems like it would be a faithful representation of the slot when we saved it.
I added the `genesis_time: u64` to the `BeaconChain`. It's small, constant and nice to have around.
Since we're using FC for the fin/just checkpoints, we no longer get the `0x00..00` roots at genesis. You can see I had to remove a work-around in `ef-tests` here: b56be3bc2. I can't find any reason why this would be an issue, if anything I think it'll be better since the genesis-alias has caught us out a few times (0x00..00 isn't actually a real root). Edit: I did find a case where the `network` expected the 0x00..00 alias and patched it here: 3f26ac3e2.
You'll notice a lot of changes in tests. Generally, tests should be functionally equivalent. Here are the things creating the most diff-noise in tests:
- Changing tests to be `tokio::async` tests.
- Adding `.await` to fork choice, block processing and block production functions.
- Refactor of the `canonical_head` "API" provided by the `BeaconChain`. E.g., `chain.canonical_head.cached_head()` instead of `chain.canonical_head.read()`.
- Wrapping `SignedBeaconBlock` in an `Arc`.
- In the `beacon_chain/tests/block_verification`, we can't use the `lazy_static` `CHAIN_SEGMENT` variable anymore since it's generated with an async function. We just generate it in each test, not so efficient but hopefully insignificant.
I had to disable `rayon` concurrent tests in the `fork_choice` tests. This is because the use of `rayon` and `block_on` was causing a panic.

## Proposed Changes
Disallow the production of attestations and retrieval of unaggregated attestations when they reference an optimistic head. Add tests to this end.
I also moved `BeaconChain::produce_unaggregated_attestation_for_block` to the `BeaconChainHarness`. It was only being used during tests, so it's nice to stop pretending it's production code. I also needed something that could produce attestations to optimistic blocks in order to simulate scenarios where the justified checkpoint is determined invalid (if no one would attest to an optimistic block, we could never justify it and then flip it to invalid).

## Issue Addressed
As discussed on last-night's consensus call, the testnets next week will target the [Kiln Spec v2](https://hackmd.io/@n0ble/kiln-spec).
Presently, we support Kiln V1. V2 is backwards compatible, except for renaming `random` to `prev_randao` in:
- https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/180
- https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2835
With this PR we'll no longer be compatible with the existing Kintsugi and Kiln testnets, however we'll be ready for the testnets next week. I raised this breaking change in the call last night, we are all keen to move forward and break things.
We now target the [`merge-kiln-v2`](https://github.com/MariusVanDerWijden/go-ethereum/tree/merge-kiln-v2) branch for interop with Geth. This required adding the `--http.aauthport` to the tester to avoid a port conflict at startup.
### Changes to exec integration tests
There's some change in the `merge-kiln-v2` version of Geth that means it can't compile on a vanilla Github runner. Bumping the `go` version on the runner solved this issue.
Whilst addressing this, I refactored the `testing/execution_integration` crate to be a *binary* rather than a *library* with tests. This means that we don't need to run the `build.rs` and build Geth whenever someone runs `make lint` or `make test-release`. This is nice for everyday users, but it's also nice for CI so that we can have a specific runner for these tests and we don't need to ensure *all* runners support everything required to build all execution clients.
## More Info
- [x] ~~EF tests are failing since the rename has broken some tests that reference the old field name. I have been told there will be new tests released in the coming days (25/02/22 or 26/02/22).~~

## Proposed Changes
Adds the functionality to allow blocks to be validated/invalidated after their import as per the [optimistic sync spec](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/dev/sync/optimistic.md#how-to-optimistically-import-blocks). This means:
- Updating `ProtoArray` to allow flipping the `execution_status` of ancestors/descendants based on payload validity updates.
- Creating separation between `execution_layer` and the `beacon_chain` by creating a `PayloadStatus` struct.
- Refactoring how the `execution_layer` selects a `PayloadStatus` from the multiple statuses returned from multiple EEs.
- Adding testing framework for optimistic imports.
- Add `ExecutionBlockHash(Hash256)` new-type struct to avoid confusion between *beacon block roots* and *execution payload hashes*.
- Add `merge` to [`FORKS`](c3a793fd73/Makefile (L17)) in the `Makefile` to ensure we test the beacon chain with merge settings.
- Fix some tests here that were failing due to a missing execution layer.

## Issue Addressed
Resolves: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2741
Includes: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2853 so that we can get ssz static tests passing here on v1.1.6. If we want to merge that first, we can make this diff slightly smaller
## Proposed Changes
- Changes the `justified_epoch` and `finalized_epoch` in the `ProtoArrayNode` each to an `Option<Checkpoint>`. The `Option` is necessary only for the migration, so not ideal. But does allow us to add a default logic to `None` on these fields during the database migration.
- Adds a database migration from a legacy fork choice struct to the new one, search for all necessary block roots in fork choice by iterating through blocks in the db.
- updates related to https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2727
- We will have to update the persisted forkchoice to make sure the justified checkpoint stored is correct according to the updated fork choice logic. This boils down to setting the forkchoice store's justified checkpoint to the justified checkpoint of the block that advanced the finalized checkpoint to the current one.
- AFAICT there's no migration steps necessary for the update to allow applying attestations from prior blocks, but would appreciate confirmation on that
- I updated the consensus spec tests to v1.1.6 here, but they will fail until we also implement the proposer score boost updates. I confirmed that the previously failing scenario `new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor` will now pass after the boost updates, but haven't confirmed _all_ tests will pass because I just quickly stubbed out the proposer boost test scenario formatting.
- This PR now also includes proposer boosting https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2730
## Additional Info
I realized checking justified and finalized roots in fork choice makes it more likely that we trigger this bug: https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2727
It's possible the combination of justified checkpoint and finalized checkpoint in the forkchoice store is different from in any block in fork choice. So when trying to startup our store's justified checkpoint seems invalid to the rest of fork choice (but it should be valid). When this happens we get an `InvalidBestNode` error and fail to start up. So I'm including that bugfix in this branch.
Todo:
- [x] Fix fork choice tests
- [x] Self review
- [x] Add fix for https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2727
- [x] Rebase onto Kintusgi
- [x] Fix `num_active_validators` calculation as @michaelsproul pointed out
- [x] Clean up db migrations

## Proposed Changes
Implements the "union" type from the SSZ spec for `ssz`, `ssz_derive`, `tree_hash` and `tree_hash_derive` so it may be derived for `enums`:
https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/v1.1.0-beta.3/ssz/simple-serialize.md#union
The union type is required for the merge, since the `Transaction` type is defined as a single-variant union `Union[OpaqueTransaction]`.
### Crate Updates
This PR will (hopefully) cause CI to publish new versions for the following crates:
- `eth2_ssz_derive`: `0.2.1` -> `0.3.0`
- `eth2_ssz`: `0.3.0` -> `0.4.0`
- `eth2_ssz_types`: `0.2.0` -> `0.2.1`
- `tree_hash`: `0.3.0` -> `0.4.0`
- `tree_hash_derive`: `0.3.0` -> `0.4.0`
These these crates depend on each other, I've had to add a workspace-level `[patch]` for these crates. A follow-up PR will need to remove this patch, ones the new versions are published.
### Union Behaviors
We already had SSZ `Encode` and `TreeHash` derive for enums, however it just did a "transparent" pass-through of the inner value. Since the "union" decoding from the spec is in conflict with the transparent method, I've required that all `enum` have exactly one of the following enum-level attributes:
#### SSZ
- `#[ssz(enum_behaviour = "union")]`
- matches the spec used for the merge
- `#[ssz(enum_behaviour = "transparent")]`
- maintains existing functionality
- not supported for `Decode` (never was)
#### TreeHash
- `#[tree_hash(enum_behaviour = "union")]`
- matches the spec used for the merge
- `#[tree_hash(enum_behaviour = "transparent")]`
- maintains existing functionality
This means that we can maintain the existing transparent behaviour, but all existing users will get a compile-time error until they explicitly opt-in to being transparent.
### Legacy Option Encoding
Before this PR, we already had a union-esque encoding for `Option<T>`. However, this was with the *old* SSZ spec where the union selector was 4 bytes. During merge specification, the spec was changed to use 1 byte for the selector.
Whilst the 4-byte `Option` encoding was never used in the spec, we used it in our database. Writing a migrate script for all occurrences of `Option` in the database would be painful, especially since it's used in the `CommitteeCache`. To avoid the migrate script, I added a serde-esque `#[ssz(with = "module")]` field-level attribute to `ssz_derive` so that we can opt into the 4-byte encoding on a field-by-field basis.
The `ssz::legacy::four_byte_impl!` macro allows a one-liner to define the module required for the `#[ssz(with = "module")]` for some `Option<T> where T: Encode + Decode`.
Notably, **I have removed `Encode` and `Decode` impls for `Option`**. I've done this to force a break on downstream users. Like I mentioned, `Option` isn't used in the spec so I don't think it'll be *that* annoying. I think it's nicer than quietly having two different union implementations or quietly breaking the existing `Option` impl.
### Crate Publish Ordering
I've modified the order in which CI publishes crates to ensure that we don't publish a crate without ensuring we already published a crate that it depends upon.
## TODO
- [ ] Queue a follow-up `[patch]`-removing PR.
## Issue Addressed
Related to: #2259
Made an attempt at all the necessary updates here to publish the crates to crates.io. I incremented the minor versions on all the crates that have been previously published. We still might run into some issues as we try to publish because I'm not able to test this out but I think it's a good starting point.
## Proposed Changes
- Add description and license to `ssz_types` and `serde_util`
- rename `serde_util` to `eth2_serde_util`
- increment minor versions
- remove path dependencies
- remove patch dependencies

## Proposed Changes
Add an optimization to perform `per_slot_processing` from the *leading-edge* of block processing to the *trailing-edge*. Ultimately, this allows us to import the block at slot `n` faster because we used the tail-end of slot `n - 1` to perform `per_slot_processing`.
Additionally, add a "block proposer cache" which allows us to cache the block proposer for some epoch. Since we're now doing trailing-edge `per_slot_processing`, we can prime this cache with the values for the next epoch before those blocks arrive (assuming those blocks don't have some weird forking).
There were several ancillary changes required to achieve this:
- Remove the `state_root` field of `BeaconSnapshot`, since there's no need to know it on a `pre_state` and in all other cases we can just read it from `block.state_root()`.
- This caused some "dust" changes of `snapshot.beacon_state_root` to `snapshot.beacon_state_root()`, where the `BeaconSnapshot::beacon_state_root()` func just reads the state root from the block.
- Rename `types::ShuffingId` to `AttestationShufflingId`. I originally did this because I added a `ProposerShufflingId` struct which turned out to be not so useful. I thought this new name was more descriptive so I kept it.
- Address https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/pull/2196
- Add a debug log when we get a block with an unknown parent. There was previously no logging around this case.
- Add a function to `BeaconState` to compute all proposers for an epoch without re-computing the active indices for each slot.
## Additional Info
- ~~Blocked on #2173~~
- ~~Blocked on #2179~~ That PR was wrapped into this PR.
- There's potentially some places where we could avoid computing the proposer indices in `per_block_processing` but I haven't done this here. These would be an optimization beyond the issue at hand (improving block propagation times) and I think this PR is already doing enough. We can come back for that later.
## TODO
- [x] Tidy, improve comments.
- [x] ~~Try avoid computing proposer index in `per_block_processing`?~~
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
As discussed with @protolambda, add an additional loop inside proto_array to ensure weights are coherent.
## Additional Info
NA
## Issue Addressed
`test_dht_persistence` failing
## Proposed Changes
Bind `NetworkService::start` to an underscore prefixed variable rather than `_`. `_` was causing it to be dropped immediately
This was failing 5/100 times before this update, but I haven't been able to get it to fail after updating it

## Issue Addressed
- Resolves#1706
## Proposed Changes
Updates dependencies across the workspace. Any crate that was not able to be brought to the latest version is listed in #1712.

- 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

## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
There are four new conditions introduced in v0.12.3:
1. _[REJECT]_ The attestation's epoch matches its target -- i.e. `attestation.data.target.epoch ==
compute_epoch_at_slot(attestation.data.slot)`
1. _[REJECT]_ The attestation's target block is an ancestor of the block named in the LMD vote -- i.e.
`get_ancestor(store, attestation.data.beacon_block_root, compute_start_slot_at_epoch(attestation.data.target.epoch)) == attestation.data.target.root`
1. _[REJECT]_ The committee index is within the expected range -- i.e. `data.index < get_committee_count_per_slot(state, data.target.epoch)`.
1. _[REJECT]_ The number of aggregation bits matches the committee size -- i.e.
`len(attestation.aggregation_bits) == len(get_beacon_committee(state, data.slot, data.index))`.
This PR implements new logic to suit (1) and (2). Tests are added for (3) and (4), although they were already implicitly enforced.
## Additional Info
- There's a bit of edge-case with target root verification that I raised here: https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/pull/2001#issuecomment-699246659
- I've had to add an `--ignore` to `cargo audit` to get CI to pass. See https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1669
## 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.
## 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.
## TODO
- [x] Tests
