## Proposed Changes
Implement the consensus changes necessary for the upcoming Altair hard fork.
## Additional Info
This is quite a heavy refactor, with pivotal types like the `BeaconState` and `BeaconBlock` changing from structs to enums. This ripples through the whole codebase with field accesses changing to methods, e.g. `state.slot` => `state.slot()`.

## Issue Addressed
`cargo audit` is failing because of a potential for an overflow in the version of `smallvec` we're using
## Proposed Changes
Update to the latest version of `smallvec`, which has the fix

## 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
## Additional Info

## 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.

## Proposed Changes
Adds additional tree hash caching for `state.eth1_data_votes`.
Presently, each time we tree hash the `BeaconState`, we recompute the `state.eth1_data_votes` tree in it's entirety. This is because we only previous had support for caching fixed-length lists.
This PR adds the `Eth1DataVotesTreeHashCache` which provides caching for the `state.eth1_data_votes` list. The cache is aware of `SLOTS_PER_ETH1_VOTING_PERIOD` and will reset itself whenever that boundary is crossed.
This cache adds a new (but somewhat fundamental) restriction to tree hash caching:
*For some state `s`, `s.tree_hash_cache` is only valid for `s` or descendants of `s` that have been reached via state transitions that are faithful to the specification (invalid blocks are permitted, as long as they are faithfully processed).*
## Issue Addressed
Prevent CI from succeeding when there are warnings. Code can still be built and tested with warnings locally, but CI may fail during a Rust update (which is fine IMO).
## Proposed Changes
* Deny warnings for all stable compiler jobs on CI (excludes `cargo udeps`, which runs under nightly)
* Fix the warnings currently on `master` related to unnecessary `mem::replace`
