ToMessage is used to convert between ethapi.CallArgs and types.Message.
It reduces the length of the DoCall method by about half by abstracting out
the conversion between the CallArgs and the Message. This should improve the
code's maintainability and reusability.
The leaks were mostly in unit tests, and could all be resolved by
adding suitably-sized channel buffers or by restructuring the test
to not send on a channel after an error has occurred.
There is an unavoidable goroutine leak in Console.Interactive: when
we receive a signal, the line reader cannot be unblocked and will get
stuck. This leak is now documented and I've tried to make it slightly
less bad by adding a one-element buffer to the output channels of
the line-reading loop. Should the reader eventually awake from its
blocked state (i.e. when stdin is closed), at least it won't get stuck
trying to send to the interpreter loop which has quit long ago.

This adds a couple of metrics for tracking the timing
and frequency of method calls:
- rpc/requests gauge counts all requests
- rpc/success gauge counts requests which return err == nil
- rpc/failure gauge counts requests which return err != nil
- rpc/duration/all timer tracks timing of all requests
- rpc/duration/<method>/<success/failure> tracks per-method timing
This removes a bunch of weird code around the counter overflow check in
concatKDF and makes it actually work for different hash output sizes.
The overflow check worked as follows: concatKDF applies the hash function N
times, where N is roundup(kdLen, hashsize) / hashsize. N should not
overflow 32 bits because that would lead to a repetition in the KDF output.
A couple issues with the overflow check:
- It used the hash.BlockSize, which is wrong because the
block size is about the input of the hash function. Luckily, all standard
hash functions have a block size that's greater than the output size, so
concatKDF didn't crash, it just generated too much key material.
- The check used big.Int to compare against 2^32-1.
- The calculation could still overflow before reaching the check.
The new code in concatKDF doesn't check for overflow. Instead, there is a
new check on ECIESParams which ensures that params.KeyLen is < 512. This
removes any possibility of overflow.
There are a couple of miscellaneous improvements bundled in with this
change:
- The key buffer is pre-allocated instead of appending the hash output
to an initially empty slice.
- The code that uses concatKDF to derive keys is now shared between Encrypt
and Decrypt.
- There was a redundant invocation of IsOnCurve in Decrypt. This is now removed
because elliptic.Unmarshal already checks whether the input is a valid curve
point since Go 1.5.

- Dump stats also for --bench flag.
- From memory stats only show number and size of allocations. This is what `test -bench` shows. I doubt others like number of GC runs are any useful, but can be added if requested.
- Now the mem stats are for single execution in case of --bench.
* les: move execqueue into utilities package
execqueue is a util for executing queued functions
in a serial order which is used by both les server
and les client. Move it to common package.
* les: move randselect to utilities package
weighted_random_selector is a helpful tool for randomly select
items maintained in a set but based on the item weight.
It's used anywhere is LES package, mainly by les client but will
be used in les server with very high chance. So move it into a
common package as the second step for les separation.
* les: rename to utils
The test failed due to what appears to be fluctuations in time.Sleep, which is
not the actual method under test. This change modifies it so we compare the
metered Max to the actual time instead of the desired time.
This new API allows reading accounts and their content by address range.

* 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.
* eth: rewrite sync controller
* eth: remove sync start debug message
* eth: notify chainSyncer about new peers after handshake
* eth: move downloader.Cancel call into chainSyncer
* eth: make post-sync block broadcast synchronous
* eth: add comments
* core: change blockchain stop message
* eth: change closeBloomHandler channel type
Turns out the way RDATA limits work is documented after all,
I just didn't search right. The trick to make it work is to
count UPSERTs twice.
This also adds an additional check to ensure TTL changes are
applied on existing records.
Prior to this change, eth_call changed the balance of the sender account in the
EVM environment to 2^256 wei to cover the gas cost of the call execution.
We've had this behavior for a long time even though it's super confusing.
This commit sets the default call gasprice to zero instead of updating the balance,
which is better because it makes eth_call semantics less surprising. Removing
the built-in balance assignment also makes balance overrides work as expected.
This just prevents a false negative ERROR warning when, for some unknown
reason, a user attempts to turn on the module rpc even though it's already going
to be on.
