8609cced0e Reset payload statuses when resuming fork choice (#3498)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## 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.

be4e261e74 Use async code when interacting with EL (#3244)
## 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.

b49b4291a3 Disallow attesting to optimistic head (#3140)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## 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).

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).~~

b22ac95d7f v1.1.6 Fork Choice changes (#2822)
## 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

931daa40d7 Add fork choice EF tests (#2737)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #2545

## Proposed Changes

Adds the long-overdue EF tests for fork choice. Although we had pretty good coverage via other implementations that closely followed our approach, it is nonetheless important for us to implement these tests too.

During testing I found that we were using a hard-coded `SAFE_SLOTS_TO_UPDATE_JUSTIFIED` value rather than one from the `ChainSpec`. This caused a failure during a minimal preset test. This doesn't represent a risk to mainnet or testnets, since the hard-coded value matched the mainnet preset.

## Failing Cases

There is one failing case which is presently marked as `SkippedKnownFailure`:

```
case 4 ("new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor") from /home/paul/development/lighthouse/testing/ef_tests/consensus-spec-tests/tests/minimal/phase0/fork_choice/on_block/pyspec_tests/new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor failed with NotEqual:
head check failed: Got Head { slot: Slot(40), root: 0x9183dbaed4191a862bd307d476e687277fc08469fc38618699863333487703e7 } | Expected Head { slot: Slot(24), root: 0x105b49b51bf7103c182aa58860b039550a89c05a4675992e2af703bd02c84570 }
```

This failure is due to #2741. It's not a particularly high priority issue at the moment, so we fix it after merging this PR.

Implement standard eth2.0 API (#1569)
- Resolves #1550
- Resolves #824
- Resolves #825
- Resolves #1131
- Resolves #1411
- Resolves #1256
- Resolve #1177

- 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

- [x] Add docs for prom port to close #1256
- [x] Follow up on this #1177
