da8791abd7 Set graffiti per validator (#2044)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #1944 

## Proposed Changes

Adds a "graffiti" key to the `validator_definitions.yml`. Setting the key will override anything passed through the validator `--graffiti` flag. 
Returns an error if the value for the graffiti key is > 32 bytes instead of silently truncating.

0b2ccecbcf Make lighthouse_version compatible with old Git (#2223)
## Proposed Changes

When building the release binaries with Cross, Ubuntu 16.04 is used, which uses an old verison of Git lacking support for `--exclude`. This PR changes `lighthouse_version` to use `--match` instead.

5bc93869c8 Update ValidatorStatus to match the v1 API (#2149)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

We are currently a bit off of the standard API spec because we have [this](https://hackmd.io/bQxMDRt1RbS1TLno8K4NPg?view) proposal implemented for validator status.  Based on discussion [here](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs/pull/94), it looks like this won't be added to the spec until v2, so this PR implements [this](https://hackmd.io/ofFJ5gOmQpu1jjHilHbdQQ) validator status logic instead

a764c3b247 Handle early blocks (#2155)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Problem this PR addresses

There's an issue where Lighthouse is banning a lot of peers due to the following sequence of events:

1. Gossip block 0xabc arrives ~200ms early
    - It is propagated across the network, with respect to [`MAXIMUM_GOSSIP_CLOCK_DISPARITY`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.0.0/specs/phase0/p2p-interface.md#why-is-there-maximum_gossip_clock_disparity-when-validating-slot-ranges-of-messages-in-gossip-subnets).
    - However, it is not imported to our database since the block is early.
2. Attestations for 0xabc arrive, but the block was not imported.
    - The peer that sent the attestation is down-voted.
        - Each unknown-block attestation causes a score loss of 1, the peer is banned at -100.
        - When the peer is on an attestation subnet there can be hundreds of attestations, so the peer is banned quickly (before the missed block can be obtained via rpc).

## Potential solutions

I can think of three solutions to this:

1. Wait for attestation-queuing (#635) to arrive and solve this.
    - Easy
    - Not immediate fix.
    - Whilst this would work, I don't think it's a perfect solution for this particular issue, rather (3) is better.
1. Allow importing blocks with a tolerance of `MAXIMUM_GOSSIP_CLOCK_DISPARITY`.
    - Easy
    - ~~I have implemented this, for now.~~
1. If a block is verified for gossip propagation (i.e., signature verified) and it's within `MAXIMUM_GOSSIP_CLOCK_DISPARITY`, then queue it to be processed at the start of the appropriate slot.
    - More difficult
    - Feels like the best solution, I will try to implement this.
    
    
**This PR takes approach (3).**

## Changes included

- Implement the `block_delay_queue`, based upon a [`DelayQueue`](https://docs.rs/tokio-util/0.6.3/tokio_util/time/delay_queue/struct.DelayQueue.html) which can store blocks until it's time to import them.
- Add a new `DelayedImportBlock` variant to the `beacon_processor::WorkEvent` enum to handle this new event.
- In the `BeaconProcessor`, refactor a `tokio::select!` to a struct with an explicit `Stream` implementation. I experienced some issues with `tokio::select!` in the block delay queue and I also found it hard to debug. I think this explicit implementation is nicer and functionally equivalent (apart from the fact that `tokio::select!` randomly chooses futures to poll, whereas now we're deterministic).
- Add a testing framework to the `beacon_processor` module that tests this new block delay logic. I also tested a handful of other operations in the beacon processor (attns, slashings, exits) since it was super easy to copy-pasta the code from the `http_api` tester.
    - To implement these tests I added the concept of an optional `work_journal_tx` to the `BeaconProcessor` which will spit out a log of events. I used this in the tests to ensure that things were happening as I expect.
    - The tests are a little racey, but it's hard to avoid that when testing timing-based code. If we see CI failures I can revise. I haven't observed *any* failures due to races on my machine or on CI yet.
    - To assist with testing I allowed for directly setting the time on the `ManualSlotClock`.
- I gave the `beacon_processor::Worker` a `Toolbox` for two reasons; (a) it avoids changing tons of function sigs when you want to pass a new object to the worker and (b) it seemed cute.

399d073ab4 Fix lighthouse_version (#2221)
## Proposed Changes

Somehow since Lighthouse v1.1.3 the behaviour of `git-describe` has changed so that it includes the version tag, the number of commits since that tag, _and_ the commit. According to the docs this is how it should always have behaved?? Weird!

https://git-scm.com/docs/git-describe/2.30.1

Anyway, this lead to `lighthouse_version` producing this monstrosity of a version string when building #2194:

```
Lighthouse/v1.1.3-v1.1.3-5-gac07
```

Observe it in the wild here: https://pyrmont.beaconcha.in/block/694880

Adding `--exclude="*"` prevents `git-describe` from trying to include the tag, and on that troublesome commit from #2194 it now produces the correct version string.

f8cc82f2b1 Switch back to warp with cors wildcard support (#2211)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #2204
- Resolves #2205

## Proposed Changes

Switches to my fork of `warp` which contains support for cors wildcards: https://github.com/paulhauner/warp/tree/cors-wildcard

I have a PR open on the `warp` repo but it hasn't had any interest from the maintainers as of yet: https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp/pull/726. I think running from a fork is the best we can do for now.

6e6e9104f5 Prevent adding duplicate validators to validator_definitions.yml (#2166)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

This is mostly a UX improvement.

Currently, when recursively finding keystores, we only ignore keystores with same path.This leads to potential issues while copying datadirs (e.g. copying datadir to a new ssd with more storage). After copying new datadir and starting the vc, we will  discover the copied keystores as new keystores and add it to the definitions file leading to duplicate entries.

This PR avoids duplicate keystores being discovered as new keystore by checking for duplicate pubkeys as well.

e20f64b21a Update to tokio 1.1 (#2172)
## Issue Addressed

resolves #2129
resolves #2099 
addresses some of #1712
unblocks #2076
unblocks #2153 

## Proposed Changes

- Updates all the dependencies mentioned in #2129, except for web3. They haven't merged their tokio 1.0 update because they are waiting on some dependencies of their own. Since we only use web3 in tests, I think updating it in a separate issue is fine. If they are able to merge soon though, I can update in this PR. 

- Updates `tokio_util` to 0.6.2 and `bytes` to 1.0.1.

- We haven't made a discv5 release since merging tokio 1.0 updates so I'm using a commit rather than release atm. **Edit:** I think we should merge an update of `tokio_util` to 0.6.2 into discv5 before this release because it has panic fixes in `DelayQueue`  --> PR in discv5:  https://github.com/sigp/discv5/pull/58

## Additional Info

tokio 1.0 changes that required some changes in lighthouse:

- `interval.next().await.is_some()` -> `interval.tick().await`
- `sleep` future is now `!Unpin` -> https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/3028
- `try_recv` has been temporarily removed from `mpsc` -> https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/3350
- stream features have moved to `tokio-stream` and `broadcast::Receiver::into_stream()` has been temporarily removed -> `https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/2870
- I've copied over the `BroadcastStream` wrapper from this PR, but can update to use `tokio-stream` once it's merged https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/pull/3384

2b2a358522 Detailed validator monitoring (#2151)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #2064

## Proposed Changes

Adds a `ValidatorMonitor` struct which provides additional logging and Grafana metrics for specific validators.

Use `lighthouse bn --validator-monitor` to automatically enable monitoring for any validator that hits the [subnet subscription](https://ethereum.github.io/eth2.0-APIs/#/Validator/prepareBeaconCommitteeSubnet) HTTP API endpoint.

Also, use `lighthouse bn --validator-monitor-pubkeys` to supply a list of validators which will always be monitored.

See the new docs included in this PR for more info.

## TODO

- [x] Track validator balance, `slashed` status, etc.
- [x] ~~Register slashings in current epoch, not offense epoch~~
- [ ] Publish Grafana dashboard, update TODO link in docs
- [x] ~~#2130 is merged into this branch, resolve that~~

d9f940613f Represent slots in secs instead of millisecs (#2163)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Copied from #2083, changes the config milliseconds_per_slot to seconds_per_slot to avoid errors when slot duration is not a multiple of a second. To avoid deserializing old serialized data (with milliseconds instead of seconds) the Serialize and Deserialize derive got removed from the Spec struct (isn't currently used anyway).

This PR replaces #2083 for the purpose of fixing a merge conflict without requiring the input of @blacktemplar.

851a4dca3c replace tempdir by tempfile (#2143)
## Issue Addressed

Fixes #2141 
Remove [tempdir](https://docs.rs/tempdir/0.3.7/tempdir/) in favor of [tempfile](https://docs.rs/tempfile/3.1.0/tempfile/).

## Proposed Changes

`tempfile` has a slightly different api that makes creating temp folders with a name prefix a chore (`tempdir::TempDir::new("toto")` => `tempfile::Builder::new().prefix("toto").tempdir()`).

So I removed temp folder name prefix where I deemed it not useful.

Otherwise, the functionality is the same.

57489e620f fix default network handling (#2029)
## Issue Addressed
#1992 and #1987, and also to be considered a continuation of #1751

## Proposed Changes
many changed files but most are renaming to align the code with the semantics of `--network` 
- remove the `--network` default value (in clap) and instead set it after checking the `network` and `testnet-dir` flags
- move `eth2_testnet_config` crate to `eth2_network_config`
- move `Eth2TestnetConfig` to `Eth2NetworkConfig`
- move `DEFAULT_HARDCODED_TESTNET` to `DEFAULT_HARDCODED_NETWORK`
- `beacon_node`s `get_eth2_testnet_config` loads the `DEFAULT_HARDCODED_NETWORK` if there is no network nor testnet provided
- `boot_node`s config loads the config same as the `beacon_node`, it was using the configuration only for preconfigured networks (That code is ~1year old so I asume it was not intended)
- removed a one year old comment stating we should try to emulate `https://github.com/eth2-clients/eth2-testnets/tree/master/nimbus/testnet1` it looks outdated (?)
- remove `lighthouse`s `load_testnet_config` in favor of `get_eth2_network_config` to centralize that logic (It had differences)
- some spelling

## Additional Info
Both the command of #1992 and the scripts of #1987 seem to work fine, same as `bn` and `vc`

38b15deccb Fallback nodes for eth1 access (#1918)
## Issue Addressed

part of  #1883

## Proposed Changes

Adds a new cli argument `--eth1-endpoints` that can be used instead of `--eth1-endpoint` to specify a comma-separated list of endpoints. If the first endpoint returns an error for some request the other endpoints are tried in the given order.

## Additional Info

Currently if the first endpoint fails the fallbacks are used silently (except for `try_fallback_test_endpoint` that is used in `do_update` which logs a `WARN` for each endpoint that is not reachable). A question is if we should add more logs so that the user gets warned if his main endpoint is for example just slow and sometimes hits timeouts.

3486d6a809 Use OS file locks in validator client (#1958)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1823

## Proposed Changes

* Use OS-level file locking for validator keystores, eliminating problems with lockfiles lingering after ungraceful shutdowns (`SIGKILL`, power outage). I'm using the `fs2` crate because it's cross-platform (unlike `file-lock`), and it seems to have the most downloads on crates.io.
* Deprecate + disable `--delete-lockfiles` CLI param, it's no longer necessary
* Delete the `validator_dir::Manager`, as it was mostly dead code and was only used in the `validator list` command, which has been rewritten to read the validator definitions YAML instead.

## Additional Info

Tested on:

- [x] Linux
- [x] macOS

## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Adds a HTTP server to the VC which provides Prometheus metrics.

- Sprinkle some metrics around the VC.
- Update the book to indicate that we now have VC metrics.
- Shifts the "waiting for genesis" logic later in the `ProductionValidatorClient::new_from_cli`
  - This is worth attention during the review.

Previous mainnet bootnodes did not contain the `eth2` field and these have also been updated.

5828ff1204 Implement slasher (#1567)
This is an implementation of a slasher that lives inside the BN and can be enabled via `lighthouse bn --slasher`.

Features included in this PR:

- [x] Detection of attester slashing conditions (double votes, surrounds existing, surrounded by existing)
- [x] Integration into Lighthouse's attestation verification flow
- [x] Detection of proposer slashing conditions
- [x] Extraction of attestations from blocks as they are verified
- [x] Compression of chunks
- [x] Configurable history length
- [x] Pruning of old attestations and blocks
- [x] More tests

Future work:

* Focus on a slice of history separate from the most recent N epochs (e.g. epochs `current - K` to `current - M`)
* Run out-of-process
* Ingest attestations from the chain without a resync

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.

48f73b21e6 Expand eth1 block cache, add more logs (#1938)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Caches later blocks than is required by `ETH1_FOLLOW_DISTANCE`.
- Adds logging to `warn` if the eth1 cache is insufficiently primed.
- Use `max_by_key` instead of `max_by` in `BeaconChain::Eth1Chain` since it's simpler.
- Rename `voting_period_start_timestamp` to `voting_target_timestamp` for accuracy.

## Additional Info

The reason for eating into the `ETH1_FOLLOW_DISTANCE` and caching blocks that are closer to the head is due to possibility for `SECONDS_PER_ETH1_BLOCK` to be incorrect (as is the case for the Pyrmont testnet on Goerli).

If `SECONDS_PER_ETH1_BLOCK` is too short, we'll skip back too far from the head and skip over blocks that would be valid [`is_candidate_block`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.0.0/specs/phase0/validator.md#eth1-data) blocks. This was the case on the Pyrmont testnet and resulted in Lighthouse choosing blocks that were about 30 minutes older than is ideal.
