"whitelisting" mechanism (list of files - stored in DB) - which
protecting us from downloading new files after upgrade/downgrade was
broken. And seems it became over-complicated with time.
I replacing it by 1 persistent flag inside downloader:
"prohibit_new_downloads.lock"
Erigon will turn downloader into this mode after
downloading/verification of first snapshots.
```
//Corner cases:
// - Erigon generated file X with hash H1. User upgraded Erigon. New version has preverified file X with hash H2. Must ignore H2 (don't send to Downloader)
// - Erigon "download once": means restart/upgrade/downgrade must not download files (and will be fast)
// - After "download once" - Erigon will produce and seed new files
```
------
`downloader --seedbox` is never "prohibit new downloads"
* Most of the PR changed files are extra and slightly more complicated
unit tests.
* Fixed Eth1DataVotes not inheriting genesis
* Fixed Attestations simulation using wrong slot when reconstructing
partecipation
* Fixed Copy() operation on BeaconState on Eth1DataVotes
* Used correct ListSSZ type for Eth1DataVotes and HistoricalSummaries
* Fixed wrong []uint64 deltas on empty slots
### Context
**Websocket port flag**
Hive tests for RPC suite depend on the (geth) default 8546 port. So,
opening one more listener for this additional port if `ws.port` was
specified. This flag isn't used in Erigon, as it shares port with http
listener. Normally, one may not specify and it offers no other benefit.
What does this PR do:
* Optional Backfilling and Caplin Archive Node
* Create antiquary for historical states
* Fixed gaps of chain gap related to the Head of the chain and anchor of
the chain.
* Added basic reader object to Read the Historical state
adds a two indexes to the validators cache
creates beaconhttp package with many utilities for beacon http endpoint
(future support for ssz is baked in)
started on some validator endpoints
Changed distribution of httpcfg.HttpCfg to be pointer.
Added new flags:
rpc.slow.log - which is false by default, this flag need to enable
logging slow RPC requests
rpc.slow.log.threshold - which is 100 by default, this flag specify slow
threshold in milliseconds
Updated rpc handler to log slow requests:
- added map[request id] {method, timestamp}
- put every request details to map above
- delete request details from map above
- added time interval check for elements in map and if time difference
is more than given threshold print request id and the method
- app will print slow requests in next cases:
1. As soon as request take more than given threshold
2. Every 20 seconds if request still in process
3. After request finished and it took more than give threshold

Review for following benches for the sake of clarity:
- debug_traceBlochByNumber
- debug_traceBlochByHsh
- debug_traceTransaction
- debug_traceCall
Bench name `benchTraceBlockByHash` has been moved to
`benchDebugTraceBlockByHash`
Bench name `benchTraceTransaction` has been moved to
`benchDebugTraceTransaction` (to avoid confusion with future bench for
trace_transaction APIs)
- changed communication tunnel to web socket in order to connect to
remote nodes
- changed diagnostics.url flag to diagnostics.addr as now user need to
enter only address and support command will connect to it through
websocket
- changed flag debug.urls to debug.addrs in order to have ability to
change connection type between erigon and support to websocket and don't
change user API
- added auto trying to connect to connect to ws if connection with was
failed
