## Issue Addressed
Following the conversation on https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/pull/3666 the changes introduced in this PR will allow us to give more insights if the bandwidth limitations happen at the transport level, namely if quic helps vs yamux and it's [window size limitation](https://github.com/libp2p/rust-yamux/issues/162) or if the bottleneck is at the gossipsub level.
## Proposed Changes
introduce new quic and tcp bandwidth metric gauges.

## Issue Addressed
Addresses #4778, and potentially fixes the flaky deneb builder test `builder_works_post_deneb`.
The [deneb builder test](c5c84f1213/beacon_node/http_api/tests/tests.rs (L5371)) has been quite flaky on our CI (`release-tests`) since it was introduced. I'm guessing that it might be timing out on the builder `get_header` call (1 second), and therefore the local payload is used, while the test expects builder payload to be used.
On my machine the [`get_header` ](c5c84f1213/beacon_node/execution_layer/src/test_utils/mock_builder.rs (L367)) call takes about 550ms, which could easily go over 1s on slower environments (our windows CI runner is much slower than the ubuntu one).
I did a profile on the test and it showed that `blob_to_kzg_commiment` and `compute_kzg_proof` was taking a large chunk of time, so perhaps pre-generating the blobs could help stablise this test.
## Proposed Changes
Pre-generate blobs bundle for Mainnet and Minimal presets.
Before the change `get_header` took about **550ms**, and it's now reduced to **50-55ms** after the change. If timeout was indeed the cause of the flaky test, this fix should stablise it. This also brings the flaky `builder_works_post_deneb` test time from 50s to 10s. (8s if we only use a single blob)
* Add `blob_sidecar` event to SSE.

* Improve test assertions on `SseBlobSidecar`s.
* Add quotes to blob index serialization in `SseBlobSidecar`

## Proposed Changes
We were currently downscoring a peer for sending us a block that we already have in fork choice. This is unnecessary as we get duplicates in lighthouse only when
1. We published the block, so the block is already in fork choice
2. We imported the same block over rpc
In both scenarios, the peer who sent us the block over gossip is not at fault.
This isn't exploitable as valid duplicates will get dropped by the gossipsub duplicate filter

Synchronize dependencies and edition on the workspace `Cargo.toml`
## Proposed Changes
with https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8415 merged it's now possible to synchronize details on the workspace `Cargo.toml` like the metadata and dependencies.
By only having dependencies that are shared between multiple crates aligned on the workspace `Cargo.toml` it's easier to not miss duplicate versions of the same dependency and therefore ease on the compile times.
## Additional Info
this PR also removes the no longer required direct dependency of the `serde_derive` crate.
should be reviewed after https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/4639 get's merged.

#4402
## Proposed Changes
This PR adds QUIC support to Lighthouse. As this is not officially spec'd this will only work between lighthouse <-> lighthouse connections. We attempt a QUIC connection (if the node advertises it) and if it fails we fallback to TCP.
This should be a backwards compatible modification. We want to test this functionality on live networks to observe any improvements in bandwidth/latency.
NOTE: This also removes the websockets transport as I believe no one is really using it. It should be mentioned in our release however.

## Issue Addressed
#4654
## Proposed Changes
Only log error if we're unable to read slot clock after genesis.
I thought about simply down grading the `error` to a `warn`, but feel like it's still unnecessary noise before genesis, and it would be good to retain error log if we're pass genesis. But I'd be ok with just downgrading the log level, too.
## Issue Addressed
Fixes a bug in the handling of `--beacon-process-max-workers` which caused it to have no effect.
## Proposed Changes
For this PR I channeled @ethDreamer and saw deep into the faulty CLI config -- this bug is almost identical to the one Mark found and fixed in #4622.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#3210Closes#3211
## Proposed Changes
- Checkpoint sync from the latest finalized state regardless of its alignment.
- Add the `block_root` to the database's split point. This is _only_ added to the in-memory split in order to avoid a schema migration. See `load_split`.
- Add a new method to the DB called `get_advanced_state`, which looks up a state _by block root_, with a `state_root` as fallback. Using this method prevents accidental accesses of the split's unadvanced state, which does not exist in the hot DB and is not guaranteed to exist in the freezer DB at all. Previously Lighthouse would look up this state _from the freezer DB_, even if it was required for block/attestation processing, which was suboptimal.
- Replace several state look-ups in block and attestation processing with `get_advanced_state` so that they can't hit the split block's unadvanced state.
- Do not store any states in the freezer database by default. All states will be deleted upon being evicted from the hot database unless `--reconstruct-historic-states` is set. The anchor info which was previously used for checkpoint sync is used to implement this, including when syncing from genesis.
## Additional Info
Needs further testing. I want to stress-test the pruned database under Hydra.
The `get_advanced_state` method is intended to become more relevant over time: `tree-states` includes an identically named method that returns advanced states from its in-memory cache.

## Proposed Changes
Rather than spawning new tasks on the tokio executor to process each HTTP API request, send the tasks to the `BeaconProcessor`. This achieves:
1. Places a bound on how many concurrent requests are being served (i.e., how many we are actually trying to compute at one time).
1. Places a bound on how many requests can be awaiting a response at one time (i.e., starts dropping requests when we have too many queued).
1. Allows the BN prioritise HTTP requests with respect to messages coming from the P2P network (i.e., proiritise importing gossip blocks rather than serving API requests).
Presently there are two levels of priorities:
- `Priority::P0`
- The beacon processor will prioritise these above everything other than importing new blocks.
- Roughly all validator-sensitive endpoints.
- `Priority::P1`
- The beacon processor will prioritise practically all other P2P messages over these, except for historical backfill things.
- Everything that's not `Priority::P0`
The `--http-enable-beacon-processor false` flag can be supplied to revert back to the old behaviour of spawning new `tokio` tasks for each request:
```
--http-enable-beacon-processor <BOOLEAN>
The beacon processor is a scheduler which provides quality-of-service and DoS protection. When set to
"true", HTTP API requests will queued and scheduled alongside other tasks. When set to "false", HTTP API
responses will be executed immediately. [default: true]
```
## New CLI Flags
I added some other new CLI flags:
```
--beacon-processor-aggregate-batch-size <INTEGER>
Specifies the number of gossip aggregate attestations in a signature verification batch. Higher values may
reduce CPU usage in a healthy network while lower values may increase CPU usage in an unhealthy or hostile
network. [default: 64]
--beacon-processor-attestation-batch-size <INTEGER>
Specifies the number of gossip attestations in a signature verification batch. Higher values may reduce CPU
usage in a healthy network whilst lower values may increase CPU usage in an unhealthy or hostile network.
[default: 64]
--beacon-processor-max-workers <INTEGER>
Specifies the maximum concurrent tasks for the task scheduler. Increasing this value may increase resource
consumption. Reducing the value may result in decreased resource usage and diminished performance. The
default value is the number of logical CPU cores on the host.
--beacon-processor-reprocess-queue-len <INTEGER>
Specifies the length of the queue for messages requiring delayed processing. Higher values may prevent
messages from being dropped while lower values may help protect the node from becoming overwhelmed.
[default: 12288]
```
I needed to add the max-workers flag since the "simulator" flavor tests started failing with HTTP timeouts on the test assertions. I believe they were failing because the Github runners only have 2 cores and there just weren't enough workers available to process our requests in time. I added the other flags since they seem fun to fiddle with.
## Additional Info
I bumped the timeouts on the "simulator" flavor test from 4s to 8s. The prioritisation of consensus messages seems to be causing slower responses, I guess this is what we signed up for 🤷
The `validator/register` validator has some special handling because the relays have a bad habit of timing out on these calls. It seems like a waste of a `BeaconProcessor` worker to just wait for the builder API HTTP response, so we spawn a new `tokio` task to wait for a builder response.
I've added an optimisation for the `GET beacon/states/{state_id}/validators/{validator_id}` endpoint in [efbabe3](efbabe3252). That's the endpoint the VC uses to resolve pubkeys to validator indices, and it's the endpoint that was causing us grief. Perhaps I should move that into a new PR, not sure.
* remove closure from `check_availability_mayb_import`
* impove logging, add wrapper struct to requested ids
* improve logging
* only log if we're in deneb. Only delay lookup if we're in deneb
* fix bug in missing components check
* Low hanging fruits
* Remove unnecessary todo
I think it's fine to not handle this since the calling functions handle the error.
No specific reason imo to handle it in the function as well.
* Rename BlobError to GossipBlobError
I feel this signified better what the error is for. The BlobError was only for failures when gossip
verifying a blob. We cannot get this error when doing rpc validation
* Remove the BlockError::BlobValidation variant
This error was only there to appease gossip verification before publish.
It's unclear how to peer score this error since this cannot actually occur during any
block verification flows.
This commit introuduces an additional error type BlockContentsError to better represent the
Error type
* Add docs for peer scoring (or lack thereof) of AvailabilityCheck errors
* I do not see a non-convoluted way of doing this. Okay to have some redundant code here
* Removing this to catch the failure red handed
* Fix compilation
* Cannot be deleted because some tests assume the trait impl
Also useful to have around for testing in the future imo
* Add some metrics and logs
* Only process `Imported` variant in sync_methods
The only additional thing for other variants that might be useful is logging. We can do that
later if required
* Convert to TryFrom
Not really sure where this would be used, but just did what the comment says.
Could consider just returning the Block variant for a deneb block in the From version
* Unlikely to change now
* This is fine as this is max_rpc_size per rpc chunk (for blobs, it would be 128kb max)
* Log count instead of individual blobs, can delete log later if it becomes too annoying.
* Add block production blob verification timer
* Extend block_straemer test to deneb
* Remove dbg statement
* Fix tests

## Issue Addressed
Upgrade libp2p to v0.52
## Proposed Changes
- **Workflows**: remove installation of `protoc`
- **Book**: remove installation of `protoc`
- **`Dockerfile`s and `cross`**: remove custom base `Dockerfile` for cross since it's no longer needed. Remove `protoc` from remaining `Dockerfiles`s
- **Upgrade `discv5` to `v0.3.1`:** we have some cool stuff in there: no longer needs `protoc` and faster ip updates on cold start
- **Upgrade `prometheus` to `0.21.0`**, now it no longer needs encoding checks
- **things that look like refactors:** bunch of api types were renamed and need to be accessed in a different (clearer) way
- **Lighthouse network**
- connection limits is now a behaviour
- banned peers no longer exist on the swarm level, but at the behaviour level
- `connection_event_buffer_size` now is handled per connection with a buffer size of 4
- `mplex` is deprecated and was removed
- rpc handler now logs the peer to which it belongs
## Additional Info
Tried to keep as much behaviour unchanged as possible. However, there is a great deal of improvements we can do _after_ this upgrade:
- Smart connection limits: Connection limits have been checked only based on numbers, we can now use information about the incoming peer to decide if we want it
- More powerful peer management: Dial attempts from other behaviours can be rejected early
- Incoming connections can be rejected early
- Banning can be returned exclusively to the peer management: We should not get connections to banned peers anymore making use of this
- TCP Nat updates: We might be able to take advantage of confirmed external addresses to check out tcp ports/ips

Often when testing I have to create a hack which is annoying to maintain.
I think it might be handy to add a custom compile-time flag that developers can use if they want to test things locally without having to backfill a bunch of blocks.
There is probably an argument to have a feature called "backfill" which is enabled by default and can be disabled. I didn't go this route because I think it's counter-intuitive to have a feature that enables a core and necessary behaviour.
