bcdd960ab1 Separate execution payloads in the DB (#3157)
## Proposed Changes

Reduce post-merge disk usage by not storing finalized execution payloads in Lighthouse's database.

⚠️ **This is achieved in a backwards-incompatible way for networks that have already merged** ⚠️. Kiln users and shadow fork enjoyers will be unable to downgrade after running the code from this PR. The upgrade migration may take several minutes to run, and can't be aborted after it begins.

The main changes are:

- New column in the database called `ExecPayload`, keyed by beacon block root.
- The `BeaconBlock` column now stores blinded blocks only.
- Lots of places that previously used full blocks now use blinded blocks, e.g. analytics APIs, block replay in the DB, etc.
- On finalization:
    - `prune_abanonded_forks` deletes non-canonical payloads whilst deleting non-canonical blocks.
    - `migrate_db` deletes finalized canonical payloads whilst deleting finalized states.
- Conversions between blinded and full blocks are implemented in a compositional way, duplicating some work from Sean's PR #3134.
- The execution layer has a new `get_payload_by_block_hash` method that reconstructs a payload using the EE's `eth_getBlockByHash` call.
   - I've tested manually that it works on Kiln, using Geth and Nethermind.
   - This isn't necessarily the most efficient method, and new engine APIs are being discussed to improve this: https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/146.
   - We're depending on the `ethers` master branch, due to lots of recent changes. We're also using a workaround for https://github.com/gakonst/ethers-rs/issues/1134.
- Payload reconstruction is used in the HTTP API via `BeaconChain::get_block`, which is now `async`. Due to the `async` fn, the `blocking_json` wrapper has been removed.
- Payload reconstruction is used in network RPC to serve blocks-by-{root,range} responses. Here the `async` adjustment is messier, although I think I've managed to come up with a reasonable compromise: the handlers take the `SendOnDrop` by value so that they can drop it on _task completion_ (after the `fn` returns). Still, this is introducing disk reads onto core executor threads, which may have a negative performance impact (thoughts appreciated).

## Additional Info

- [x] For performance it would be great to remove the cloning of full blocks when converting them to blinded blocks to write to disk. I'm going to experiment with a `put_block` API that takes the block by value, breaks it into a blinded block and a payload, stores the blinded block, and then re-assembles the full block for the caller.
- [x] We should measure the latency of blocks-by-root and blocks-by-range responses.
- [x] We should add integration tests that stress the payload reconstruction (basic tests done, issue for more extensive tests: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3159)
- [x] We should (manually) test the schema v9 migration from several prior versions, particularly as blocks have changed on disk and some migrations rely on being able to load blocks.

ea783360d3 Kiln mev boost (#3062)
## Issue Addressed

MEV boost compatibility

## Proposed Changes

See #2987

## Additional Info

This is blocked on the stabilization of a couple specs, [here](https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/194) and [here](https://github.com/flashbots/mev-boost/pull/20).

Additional TODO's and outstanding questions

- [ ] MEV boost JWT Auth
- [ ] Will `builder_proposeBlindedBlock` return the revealed payload for the BN to propogate
- [ ] Should we remove `private-tx-proposals` flag and communicate BN <> VC with blinded blocks by default once these endpoints enter the beacon-API's repo? This simplifies merge transition logic.

172320ff08 Target geth master in integration testing (#3120)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Target the `master` branch of the canonical Geth repo, rather than @MariusVanDerWijden's fork.

In [this tweet](https://twitter.com/vdWijden/status/1506899633741705217?s=20&t=yraR-qFAtSDCYtl_gyoeiw), Marius states:

> We merged all important changes for [#TheMerge](https://twitter.com/hashtag/TheMerge?src=hashtag_click) into [@go_ethereum](https://twitter.com/go_ethereum)
's master branch. So no need to use my fork anymore! Changes will be applied (in old geth fashion) directly to master. My merge-kiln-v2 branch is already stale, so please switch, you can also use --kiln to join Kiln

267d8babc8 Prepare proposer (#3043)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #2936

## Proposed Changes

Adds functionality for calling [`validator/prepare_beacon_proposer`](https://ethereum.github.io/beacon-APIs/?urls.primaryName=dev#/Validator/prepareBeaconProposer) in advance.

There is a `BeaconChain::prepare_beacon_proposer` method which, which called, computes the proposer for the next slot. If that proposer has been registered via the `validator/prepare_beacon_proposer` API method, then the `beacon_chain.execution_layer` will be provided the `PayloadAttributes` for us in all future forkchoiceUpdated calls. An artificial forkchoiceUpdated call will be created 4s before each slot, when the head updates and when a validator updates their information.

Additionally, I added strict ordering for calls from the `BeaconChain` to the `ExecutionLayer`. I'm not certain the `ExecutionLayer` will always maintain this ordering, but it's a good start to have consistency from the `BeaconChain`. There are some deadlock opportunities introduced, they are documented in the code.

381d0ece3c auth for engine api (#3046)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #3015 

## Proposed Changes

Add JWT token based authentication to engine api requests. The jwt secret key is read from the provided file and is used to sign tokens that are used for authenticated communication with the EL node.

- [x] Interop with geth (synced `merge-devnet-4` with the `merge-kiln-v2` branch on geth)
- [x] Interop with other EL clients (nethermind on `merge-devnet-4`)
- [x] ~Implement `zeroize` for jwt secrets~
- [x] Add auth server tests with `mock_execution_layer`
- [x] Get auth working with the `execution_engine_integration` tests

3b4865c3ae Poll the engine_exchangeTransitionConfigurationV1 endpoint (#3047)
## Issue Addressed

There has been an [`engine_exchangetransitionconfigurationv1`](https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/blob/main/src/engine/specification.md#engine_exchangetransitionconfigurationv1) method added to the execution API specs.

The `engine_exchangetransitionconfigurationv1` will be polled every 60s as per this PR: https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/189. If that PR is merged as-is, then we will be matching the spec. If that PR *is not* merged, we are still fully compatible with the spec, but just doing more than we are required.

## Additional Info

- [x] ~~Blocked on #2837~~
- [x] Add method to EE integration tests

aea43b626b Rename random to prev_randao (#3040)
## 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).~~

27e83b888c Retrospective invalidation of exec. payloads for opt. sync (#2837)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## 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.

## TODO

- [ ] Balance tests

0a6a8ea3b0 Engine API v1.0.0.alpha.6 + interop tests (#3024)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

This PR extends #3018 to address my review comments there and add automated integration tests with Geth (and other implementations, in the future).

I've also de-duplicated the "unused port" logic by creating an  `common/unused_port` crate.

## Additional Info

I'm not sure if we want to merge this PR, or update #3018 and merge that. I don't mind, I'm primarily opening this PR to make sure CI works.
