6583ce325b Minify slashing protection interchange data (#2380)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #2354

## Proposed Changes

Add a `minify` method to `slashing_protection::Interchange` that keeps only the maximum-epoch attestation and maximum-slot block for each validator. Specifically, `minify` constructs "synthetic" attestations (with no `signing_root`) containing the maximum source epoch _and_ the maximum target epoch from the input. This is equivalent to the `minify_synth` algorithm that I've formally verified in this repository:

## Additional Info

Includes the JSON loading optimisation from #2347

ba55e140ae Enable Compatibility with Windows (#2333)
## Issue Addressed

Windows incompatibility.

## Proposed Changes

On windows, lighthouse needs to default to STDIN as tty doesn't exist. Also Windows uses ACLs for file permissions. So to mirror chmod 600, we will remove every entry in a file's ACL and add only a single SID that is an alias for the file owner.

Beyond that, there were several changes made to different unit tests because windows has slightly different error messages as well as frustrating nuances around killing a process :/

## Additional Info

Tested on my Windows VM and it appears to work, also compiled & tested on Linux with these changes. Permissions look correct on both platforms now. Just waiting for my validator to activate on Prater so I can test running full validator client on windows.

2992ca66cd Add a no-wait flag for voluntary exits (#2292)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

Adds a `no-wait` flag to the validator exit command which exits right after publishing the voluntary exit to the beacon chain. It does not wait for confirmation that the exit has been included in the beacon chain. By default, the flag is false.

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.

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~~

77f3539654 Improve eth1 block sync (#2008)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Log about eth1 whilst waiting for genesis.
- For the block and deposit caches, update them after each download instead of when *all* downloads are complete.
  - This prevents the case where a single timeout error can cause us to drop *all* previously download blocks/deposits.
- Set `max_log_requests_per_update` to avoid timeouts due to very large log counts in a response.
- Set `max_blocks_per_update` to prevent a single update of the block cache to download an unreasonable number of blocks.
  - This shouldn't have any affect in normal use, it's just a safe-guard against bugs.
- Increase the timeout for eth1 calls from 15s to 60s, as per @pawanjay176's experience with Infura.

26741944b1 Add metrics to VC (#1954)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Adds a HTTP server to the VC which provides Prometheus metrics.
- Moves the health metrics into the `lighthouse_metrics` crate so it can be shared between BN/VC.
- 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.

## Additional Info

- ~~`clippy` has some new lints that are failing. I'll deal with that in another PR.~~

7d644103c6 Tweak slasher DB schema and pruning (#1948)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #1890

## Proposed Changes

Change the slasher database schema to key indexed attestations by `(target_epoch, indexed_attestation_root)` instead of just `indexed_attestation_root`. This allows more straight-forward pruning (linear scan), that is also "re-entrant". By re-entrant, we mean that a pruning pass that gets stuck because of a `MapFull` error can attempt to commit midway, and be resumed later without issue. The previous pruning strategy for indexed attestations did not have this property. There was also a flaw in the previous pruning that could leave "zombie" indexed attestations in the database (ones not referenced by any attester record), which could build up and contribute to bloat (although in practice I think they occur quite infrequently).

## Additional Info

During testing I noticed that a `MapFull` error can still occur during the commit of the transaction itself, which is irritating, but not unbearable. This PR should at least reduce the frequency with which users need to manually resize their DB, and if the `MapFull` on commit rears its ugly head too often we could use a dynamic strategy (temporarily increase the size of the map until the transaction commits).

The extra bytes for the epoch make the database a bit heavier, so the size estimate docs have been updated to reflect this. This is also a breaking schema change, so anyone using a v0 database from a few hours ago will need to drop it and update 😅

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

Design notes are here https://hackmd.io/@sproul/HJSEklmPL

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.

2ff5828310 Downgrade ADX check to a warning (#1846)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1842

## Proposed Changes

Due to the lies told to us by VPS providers about what CPU features they support, we are forced to check for the availability of CPU features like ADX by just _running code and seeing if it crashes_. The prominent warning should hopefully help users who have truly incompatible CPUs work out what is going on, while not burdening users of cheap VPSs.

7afbaa807e Return eth1-related data via the API (#1797)
## Issue Addressed

- Related to #1691

## Proposed Changes

Adds the following API endpoints:

- `GET lighthouse/eth1/syncing`: status about how synced we are with Eth1.
- `GET lighthouse/eth1/block_cache`: all locally cached eth1 blocks.
- `GET lighthouse/eth1/deposit_cache`: all locally cached eth1 deposits.

Additionally:

- Moves some types from the `beacon_node/eth1` to the `common/eth2` crate, so they can be used in the API without duplication.
- Allow `update_deposit_cache` and `update_block_cache` to take an optional head block number to avoid duplicate requests.

56f9394141 Add cli option for voluntary exits (#1781)
## Issue Addressed

Resolve #1652 

## Proposed Changes

Adds a cli option for voluntary exits. The flow is similar to prysm's where after entering the password for the validator keystore (or load password from `secrets` if present) the user is given multiple warnings about the operation being irreversible, then redirected to the docs webpage(not added yet) which explains what a voluntary exit is and the consequences of exiting and then prompted to enter a phrase from the docs webpage as a final confirmation. 

Example usage
```
$ lighthouse --testnet zinken account validator exit --validator <validator-pubkey> --beacon-node http://localhost:5052

Running account manager for zinken testnet                                                                                                          
validator-dir path: "..."

Enter the keystore password:  for validator in ...

Password is correct

Publishing a voluntary exit for validator: ...              
WARNING: This is an irreversible operation                                                                                                                    
WARNING: Withdrawing staked eth will not be possible until Eth1/Eth2 merge Please visit [website] to make sure you understand the implications of a voluntary exit.            
                                                                                                                                             
Enter the phrase from the above URL to confirm the voluntary exit:
Exit my validator
Published voluntary exit for validator ...
```

## Additional info

Not sure if we should have batch exits (`--validator all`) option for exiting all the validators in the `validators` directory. I'm slightly leaning towards having only single exits but don't have a strong preference.

36bd4d87f0 Update to spec v1.0.0-rc.0 and BLSv4 (#1765)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1504 
Closes #1505
Replaces #1703
Closes #1707

## Proposed Changes

* Update BLST and Milagro to versions compatible with BLSv4 spec
* Update Lighthouse to spec v1.0.0-rc.0, and update EF test vectors
* Use the v1.0.0 constants for `MainnetEthSpec`.
* Rename `InteropEthSpec` -> `V012LegacyEthSpec`
    * Change all constants to suit the mainnet `v0.12.3` specification (i.e., Medalla).
* Deprecate the `--spec` flag for the `lighthouse` binary
    * This value is now obtained from the `config_name` field of the `YamlConfig`.
        * Built in testnet YAML files have been updated.
    * Ignore the `--spec` value, if supplied, log a warning that it will be deprecated
    * `lcli` still has the spec flag, that's fine because it's dev tooling.
* Remove the `E: EthSpec` from `YamlConfig`
    * This means we need to deser the genesis `BeaconState` on-demand, but this is fine.
* Swap the old "minimal", "mainnet" strings over to the new `EthSpecId` enum.
* Always require a `CONFIG_NAME` field in `YamlConfig` (it used to have a default).

## Additional Info

Lots of breaking changes, do not merge! ~~We will likely need a Lighthouse v0.4.0 branch, and possibly a long-term v0.3.0 branch to keep Medalla alive~~.

Wallet creation: Make mnemonic length configurable, default to 24 words. (#1697)
## Issue Addressed

Fixes #1665.

## Proposed Changes

`lighthouse account_manager wallet create` now generates a 24-word
mnemonic. The user can override this by passing `--mnemonic-length 12`
(or another legal bip39 length).

## Additional Info

CLI `--help`:
```
        --mnemonic-length <MNEMONIC_LENGTH>       The number of words to use for the mnemonic phrase. [default: 24]
```

In case of an invalid argument:
```
% lighthouse account_manager wallet create --mnemonic-length 25
error: Invalid value for '--mnemonic-length <MNEMONIC_LENGTH>': Mnemonic length must be one of 12, 15, 18, 21, 24

6ea3bc5e52 Implement VC API (#1657)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Implements a HTTP API for the validator client.
- Creates EIP-2335 keystores with an empty `description` field, instead of a missing `description` field. Adds option to set name.
- Be more graceful with setups without any validators (yet)
    - Remove an error log when there are no validators.
    - Create the `validator` dir if it doesn't exist.
