This PR significantly changes the APIs for instantiating Ethereum nodes in
a Go program. The new APIs are not backwards-compatible, but we feel that
this is made up for by the much simpler way of registering services on
node.Node. You can find more information and rationale in the design
document: https://gist.github.com/renaynay/5bec2de19fde66f4d04c535fd24f0775.
There is also a new feature in Node's Go API: it is now possible to
register arbitrary handlers on the user-facing HTTP server. In geth, this
facility is used to enable GraphQL.
There is a single minor change relevant for geth users in this PR: The
GraphQL API is no longer available separately from the JSON-RPC HTTP
server. If you want GraphQL, you need to enable it using the
./geth --http --graphql flag combination.
The --graphql.port and --graphql.addr flags are no longer available.
This PR reimplements the light client server pool. It is also a first step
to move certain logic into a new lespay package. This package will contain
the implementation of the lespay token sale functions, the token buying and
selling logic and other components related to peer selection/prioritization
and service quality evaluation. Over the long term this package will be
reusable for incentivizing future protocols.
Since the LES peer logic is now based on enode.Iterator, it can now use
DNS-based fallback discovery to find servers.
This document describes the function of the new components:

* eth: improve shutdown synchronization
Most goroutines started by eth.Ethereum didn't have any shutdown sync at
all, which lead to weird error messages when quitting the client.
This change improves the clean shutdown path by stopping all internal
components in dependency order and waiting for them to actually be
stopped before shutdown is considered done. In particular, we now stop
everything related to peers before stopping 'resident' parts such as
core.BlockChain.

* core/forkid, eth: make forkid a struct, next uint64, enr struct, RLP
* core/forkid: change forkhash rlp encoding from int to [4]byte
* eth: fixup eth entry a bit and update it every block

* core, eth, trie: bloom filter for trie node dedup during fast sync

* cmd, eth, miner: disable advance sealing if user require
* cmd, console, miner, les, eth: wrap the miner config
* eth: remove todo
* cmd, miner: revert noadvance flag
The reason for this is: if the transaction execution is even longer
than block time, then this kind of transactions is DoS attack.
This change
- implements concurrent LES request serving even for a single peer.
- replaces the request cost estimation method with a cost table based on
benchmarks which gives much more consistent results. Until now the
allowed number of light peers was just a guess which probably contributed
a lot to the fluctuating quality of available service. Everything related
to request cost is implemented in a single object, the 'cost tracker'. It
uses a fixed cost table with a global 'correction factor'. Benchmark code
is included and can be run at any time to adapt costs to low-level
implementation changes.
- reimplements flowcontrol.ClientManager in a cleaner and more efficient
way, with added capabilities: There is now control over bandwidth, which
allows using the flow control parameters for client prioritization.
Target utilization over 100 percent is now supported to model concurrent
request processing. Total serving bandwidth is reduced during block
processing to prevent database contention.
- implements an RPC API for the LES servers allowing server operators to
assign priority bandwidth to certain clients and change prioritized
status even while the client is connected. The new API is meant for
cases where server operators charge for LES using an off-protocol mechanism.
- adds a unit test for the new client manager.
- adds an end-to-end test using the network simulator that tests bandwidth
control functions through the new API.
* geth/core/eth: implement constantinople override flag
* les: implemnent constantinople override flag for les clients
* cmd/geth, eth, les: fix typo, move flag to experimentals
* Rejects peers that respond with a different hash for any of the passed in block numbers.
* Meant for emergency situations when the network forks unexpectedly.
Interpreter initialization is left to the PRs implementing them.
Options for external interpreters are passed after a colon in the
`--vm.ewasm` and `--vm.evm` switches.
This PR enables the indexers to work in light client mode by
downloading a part of these tries (the Merkle proofs of the last
values of the last known section) in order to be able to add new
values and recalculate subsequent hashes. It also adds CHT data to
NodeInfo.
* consensus/ethash: start remote ggoroutine to handle remote mining
* consensus/ethash: expose remote miner api
* consensus/ethash: expose submitHashrate api
* miner, ethash: push empty block to sealer without waiting execution
* consensus, internal: add getHashrate API for ethash
* consensus: add three method for consensus interface
* miner: expose consensus engine running status to miner
