1. Include the builtin-actors in the lotus source tree.
2. Embed the bundle on build instead of downloading at runtime.
3. Avoid reading the bundle whenever possible by including bundle
metadata (the bundle CID, the actor CIDs, etc.).
4. Remove everything related to dependency injection.
1. We're no longer downloading the bundle, so doing anything ahead
of time doesn't really help.
2. We register the manifests on init because, unfortunately, they're
global.
3. We explicitly load the current actors bundle in the genesis
state-tree method.
4. For testing, we just change the in-use bundle with a bit of a
hack. It's not great, but using dependency injection doesn't make
any sense either because, again, the manifest information is
global.
5. Remove the bundle.toml file. Bundles may be overridden by
specifying an override path in the parameters file, or an
environment variable.
fixes#8701
This paves the way for better object lifetime management.
Concretely, it makes it possible to:
- have different stores backing chain and state data.
- having the same datastore library, but using different parameters.
- attach different caching layers/policies to each class of data, e.g.
sizing caches differently.
- specifying different retention policies for chain and state data.
This separation is important because:
- access patterns/frequency of chain and state data are different.
- state is derivable from chain, so one could never expunge the chain
store, and only retain state objects reachable from the last finality
in the state store.
