c5cd0d9b3f add execution-timeout-multiplier flag to optionally increase timeouts (#3631)
## Issue Addressed
Add flag to lengthen execution layer timeouts

Which issue # does this PR address?

#3607 

## Proposed Changes

Added execution-timeout-multiplier flag and a cli test to ensure the execution layer config has the multiplier set correctly.

Please list or describe the changes introduced by this PR.
Add execution_timeout_multiplier to the execution layer config as Option<u32> and pass the u32 to HttpJsonRpc.

## Additional Info
Not certain that this is the best way to implement it so I'd appreciate any feedback.

Please provide any additional information. For example, future considerations
or information useful for reviewers.

242ae21e5d Pass EL JWT secret key via cli flag (#3568)
## Proposed Changes

In this change I've added a new beacon_node cli flag `--execution-jwt-secret-key` for passing the JWT secret directly as string.

Without this flag, it was non-trivial to pass a secrets file containing a JWT secret key without compromising its contents into some management repo or fiddling around with manual file mounts for cloud-based deployments.

When used in combination with environment variables, the secret can be injected into container-based systems like docker & friends quite easily.

It's both possible to either specify the file_path to the JWT secret or pass the JWT secret directly.

I've modified the docs and attached a test as well.

## Additional Info

The logic has been adapted a bit so that either one of `--execution-jwt` or `--execution-jwt-secret-key` must be set when specifying `--execution-endpoint` so that it's still compatible with the semantics before this change and there's at least one secret provided.

8728c40102 Remove fallback support from eth1 service (#3594)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

With https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3214 we made it such that you can either have 1 auth endpoint or multiple non auth endpoints. Now that we are post merge on all networks (testnets and mainnet), we cannot progress a chain without a dedicated auth execution layer connection so there is no point in having a non-auth eth1-endpoint for syncing deposit cache. 

This code removes all fallback related code in the eth1 service. We still keep the single non-auth endpoint since it's useful for testing.

## Additional Info

This removes all eth1 fallback related metrics that were relevant for the monitoring service, so we might need to change the api upstream.

507bb9dad4 Refined payload pruning (#3587)
## Proposed Changes

Improve the payload pruning feature in several ways:

- Payload pruning is now entirely optional. It is enabled by default but can be disabled with `--prune-payloads false`. The previous `--prune-payloads-on-startup` flag from #3565 is removed.
- Initial payload pruning on startup now runs in a background thread. This thread will always load the split state, which is a small fraction of its total work (up to ~300ms) and then backtrack from that state. This pruning process ran in 2m5s on one Prater node with good I/O and 16m on a node with slower I/O.
- To work with the optional payload pruning the database function `try_load_full_block` will now attempt to load execution payloads for finalized slots _if_ pruning is currently disabled. This gives users an opt-out for the extensive traffic between the CL and EL for reconstructing payloads.

## Additional Info

If the `prune-payloads` flag is toggled on and off then the on-startup check may not see any payloads to delete and fail to clean them up. In this case the `lighthouse db prune_payloads` command should be used to force a manual sweep of the database.

ca42ef2e5a Prune finalized execution payloads (#3565)
## Issue Addressed

Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3556

## Proposed Changes

Delete finalized execution payloads from the database in two places:

1. When running the finalization migration in `migrate_database`. We delete the finalized payloads between the last split point and the new updated split point. _If_ payloads are already pruned prior to this then this is sufficient to prune _all_ payloads as non-canonical payloads are already deleted by the head pruner, and all canonical payloads prior to the previous split will already have been pruned.
2. To address the fact that users will update to this code _after_ the merge on mainnet (and testnets), we need a one-off scan to delete the finalized payloads from the canonical chain. This is implemented in `try_prune_execution_payloads` which runs on startup and scans the chain back to the Bellatrix fork or the anchor slot (if checkpoint synced after Bellatrix). In the case where payloads are already pruned this check only imposes a single state load for the split state, which shouldn't be _too slow_. Even so, a flag `--prepare-payloads-on-startup=false` is provided to turn this off after it has run the first time, which provides faster start-up times.

There is also a new `lighthouse db prune_payloads` subcommand for users who prefer to run the pruning manually.

## Additional Info

The tests have been updated to not rely on finalized payloads in the database, instead using the `MockExecutionLayer` to reconstruct them. Additionally a check was added to `check_chain_dump` which asserts the non-existence or existence of payloads on disk depending on their slot.

419c53bf24 Add flag 'log-color' preserving color of log redirected to file. (#3538)
Add flag 'log-color' which preserves colors of log when stdout is redirected to a file.

This is my first lighthouse PR, please let me know if I'm not following contribution guidelines, I welcome meta-feeback (feedback on git commit messages, git branch naming, and the contents of the description of this PR.)

## Issue Addressed

Solves https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3527

## Proposed Changes

Adding a flag which enables log color preserving when stdout is redirected to a file.

### Usage
Below I demonstrate current behaviour (without using the new flag) and the new behaviur (when using new flag).

In the screenshot below, I have to panes, one on top running `lighthouse` which redirects to file `~/Desktop/test.log` and one pane in the bottom which runs `tail -f ~/Desktop/test.log`.

#### Current behaviour
```sh
lighthouse --network prater vc |& tee -a ~/Desktop/test.log
```

**Result is no colors**

#### New behaviour
```sh
lighthouse --network prater vc --log-color |& tee -a ~/Desktop/test.log
```

**Result is colors** 🔴🟢🔵🟡

<img width="1624" alt="new" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/864410/188258223-7d9ecf09-92c8-4cba-8f24-bd4d88fc0353.png">

## Additional Info

I chose American spelling of "color" instead of Brittish "colour' since that was aligned with `slog`'s API - method`force_color()`, let me know if you prefer spelling "colour" instead. I also chose to let it be an arg not taking any argument, just like `logfile-compress` flag, rather than having to write `--log-color true`.

177aef8f1e Builder profit threshold flag (#3534)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3517

## Proposed Changes

Adds a `--builder-profit-threshold <wei value>` flag to the BN. If an external payload's value field is less than this value, the local payload will be used. The value of the local payload will not be checked (it can't really be checked until the engine API is updated to support this).

8609cced0e Reset payload statuses when resuming fork choice (#3498)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

This PR is motivated by a recent consensus failure in Geth where it returned `INVALID` for an `VALID` block. Without this PR, the only way to recover is by re-syncing Lighthouse. Whilst ELs "shouldn't have consensus failures", in reality it's something that we can expect from time to time due to the complex nature of Ethereum. Being able to recover easily will help the network recover and EL devs to troubleshoot.

The risk introduced with this PR is that genuinely INVALID payloads get a "second chance" at being imported. I believe the DoS risk here is negligible since LH needs to be restarted in order to re-process the payload. Furthermore, there's no reason to think that a well-performing EL will accept a truly invalid payload the second-time-around.

## Additional Info

This implementation has the following intricacies:

1. Instead of just resetting *invalid* payloads to optimistic, we'll also reset *valid* payloads. This is an artifact of our existing implementation.
1. We will only reset payload statuses when we detect an invalid payload present in `proto_array`
    - This helps save us from forgetting that all our blocks are valid in the "best case scenario" where there are no invalid blocks.
1. If we fail to revert the payload statuses we'll log a `CRIT` and just continue with a `proto_array` that *does not* have reverted payload statuses.
    - The code to revert statuses needs to deal with balances and proposer-boost, so it's a failure point. This is a defensive measure to avoid introducing new show-stopping bugs to LH.

66eca1a882 Refactor op pool for speed and correctness (#3312)
## Proposed Changes

This PR has two aims: to speed up attestation packing in the op pool, and to fix bugs in the verification of attester slashings, proposer slashings and voluntary exits. The changes are bundled into a single database schema upgrade (v12).

Attestation packing is sped up by removing several inefficiencies: 

- No more recalculation of `attesting_indices` during packing.
- No (unnecessary) examination of the `ParticipationFlags`: a bitfield suffices. See `RewardCache`.
- No re-checking of attestation validity during packing: the `AttestationMap` provides attestations which are "correct by construction" (I have checked this using Hydra).
- No SSZ re-serialization for the clunky `AttestationId` type (it can be removed in a future release).

So far the speed-up seems to be roughly 2-10x, from 500ms down to 50-100ms.

Verification of attester slashings, proposer slashings and voluntary exits is fixed by:

- Tracking the `ForkVersion`s that were used to verify each message inside the `SigVerifiedOp`. This allows us to quickly re-verify that they match the head state's opinion of what the `ForkVersion` should be at the epoch(s) relevant to the message.
- Storing the `SigVerifiedOp` on disk rather than the raw operation. This allows us to continue track the fork versions after a reboot.

This is mostly contained in this commit 52bb1840ae5c4356a8fc3a51e5df23ed65ed2c7f.

## Additional Info

The schema upgrade uses the justified state to re-verify attestations and compute `attesting_indices` for them. It will drop any attestations that fail to verify, by the logic that attestations are most valuable in the few slots after they're observed, and are probably stale and useless by the time a node restarts. Exits and proposer slashings and similarly re-verified to obtain `SigVerifiedOp`s.

This PR contains a runtime killswitch `--paranoid-block-proposal` which opts out of all the optimisations in favour of closely verifying every included message. Although I'm quite sure that the optimisations are correct this flag could be useful in the event of an unforeseen emergency.

Finally, you might notice that the `RewardCache` appears quite useless in its current form because it is only updated on the hot-path immediately before proposal. My hope is that in future we can shift calls to `RewardCache::update` into the background, e.g. while performing the state advance. It is also forward-looking to `tree-states` compatibility, where iterating and indexing `state.{previous,current}_epoch_participation` is expensive and needs to be minimised.

aab4a8d2f2 Update docs for mainnet merge release (#3494)
## Proposed Changes

Update the merge migration docs to encourage updating mainnet configs _now_!

The docs are also updated to recommend _against_ `--suggested-fee-recipient` on the beacon node (https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3432).

Additionally the `--help` for the CLI is updated to match with a few small semantic changes:

- `--execution-jwt` is no longer allowed without `--execution-endpoint`. We've ended up without a default for `--execution-endpoint`, so I think that's fine.
- The flags related to the JWT are only allowed if `--execution-jwt` is provided.

92d597ad23 Modularise slasher backend (#3443)
## Proposed Changes

Enable multiple database backends for the slasher, either MDBX (default) or LMDB. The backend can be selected using `--slasher-backend={lmdb,mdbx}`.

## Additional Info

In order to abstract over the two library's different handling of database lifetimes I've used `Box::leak` to give the `Environment` type a `'static` lifetime. This was the only way I could think of using 100% safe code to construct a self-referential struct `SlasherDB`, where the `OpenDatabases` refers to the `Environment`. I think this is OK, as the `Environment` is expected to live for the life of the program, and both database engines leave the database in a consistent state after each write. The memory claimed for memory-mapping will be freed by the OS and appropriately flushed regardless of whether the `Environment` is actually dropped.

We are depending on two `sigp` forks of `libmdbx-rs` and `lmdb-rs`, to give us greater control over MDBX OS support and LMDB's version.

4e05f19fb5 Serve Bellatrix preset in BN API (#3425)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #3388
Resolves #2638

## Proposed Changes

- Return the `BellatrixPreset` on `/eth/v1/config/spec` by default.
- Allow users to opt out of this by providing `--http-spec-fork=altair` (unless there's a Bellatrix fork epoch set).
- Add the Altair constants from #2638 and make serving the constants non-optional (the `http-disable-legacy-spec` flag is deprecated).
- Modify the VC to only read the `Config` and not to log extra fields. This prevents it from having to muck around parsing the `ConfigAndPreset` fields it doesn't need.

## Additional Info

This change is backwards-compatible for the VC and the BN, but is marked as a breaking change for the removal of `--http-disable-legacy-spec`.

I tried making `Config` a `superstruct` too, but getting the automatic decoding to work was a huge pain and was going to require a lot of hacks, so I gave up in favour of keeping the default-based approach we have now.

6c2d8b2262 Builder Specs v0.2.0 (#3134)
## Issue Addressed

https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3091

Extends https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3062, adding pre-bellatrix block support on blinded endpoints and allowing the normal proposal flow (local payload construction) on blinded endpoints. This resulted in better fallback logic because the VC will not have to switch endpoints on failure in the BN <> Builder API, the BN can just fallback immediately and without repeating block processing that it shouldn't need to. We can also keep VC fallback from the VC<>BN API's blinded endpoint to full endpoint.

## Proposed Changes

- Pre-bellatrix blocks on blinded endpoints
- Add a new `PayloadCache` to the execution layer
- Better fallback-from-builder logic

## Todos

- [x] Remove VC transition logic
- [x] Add logic to only enable builder flow after Merge transition finalization
- [x] Tests
- [x] Fix metrics
- [x] Rustdocs

904dd62524 Strict fee recipient (#3363)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #3267
Resolves #3156 

## Proposed Changes

- Move the log for fee recipient checks from proposer cache insertion into block proposal so we are directly checking what we get from the EE
- Only log when there is a discrepancy with the local EE, not when using the builder API. In the `builder-api` branch there is an `info` log when there is a discrepancy, I think it is more likely there will be a difference in fee recipient with the builder api because proposer payments might be made via a transaction in the block. Not really sure what patterns will become commong.
- Upgrade the log from a `warn` to an `error` - not actually sure which we want, but I think this is worth an error because the local EE with default transaction ordering I think should pretty much always use the provided fee recipient
- add a `strict-fee-recipient` flag to the VC so we only sign blocks with matching fee recipients. Falls back from the builder API to the local API if there is a discrepancy .

d5e2d98970 Implement feerecipient API for keymanager (#3213)
## Issue Addressed

* #3173 

## Proposed Changes

Moved all `fee_recipient_file` related logic inside the `ValidatorStore` as it makes more sense to have this all together there. I tested this with the validators I have on `mainnet-shadow-fork-5` and everything appeared to work well. Only technicality is that I can't get the method to return `401` when the authorization header is not specified (it returns `400` instead). Fixing this is probably quite difficult given that none of `warp`'s rejections have code `401`.. I don't really think this matters too much though as long as it fails.

Unify the `eth1-endpoints` and `execution-endpoints` flags in a backwards compatible way as described in https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3069#issuecomment-1134219221

Users have 2 options:
1. Use multiple non auth execution endpoints for deposit processing pre-merge
2. Use a single jwt authenticated execution endpoint for both execution layer and deposit processing post merge

Related https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3118

To enable jwt authenticated deposit processing, this PR removes the calls to `net_version` as the `net` namespace is not exposed in the auth server in execution clients. 
Moving away from using `networkId` is a good step in my opinion as it doesn't provide us with any added guarantees over `chainId`. See https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/issues/2163 and https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2115

8faaa35b58 Enable malloc metrics for the VC (#3279)
## Issue Addressed

Following up from https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3223#issuecomment-1158718102, it has been observed that the validator client uses vastly more memory in some compilation configurations than others. Compiling with Cross and then putting the binary into an Ubuntu 22.04 image seems to use 3x more memory than compiling with Cargo directly on Debian bullseye.

## Proposed Changes

Enable malloc metrics for the validator client. This will hopefully allow us to see the difference between the two compilation configs and compare heap fragmentation. This PR doesn't enable malloc tuning for the VC because it was found to perform significantly worse. The `--disable-malloc-tuning` flag is repurposed to just disable the metrics.

47d57a290b Improve eth1 block cache sync (for Ropsten) (#3234)
## Issue Addressed

Fix for the eth1 cache sync issue observed on Ropsten.

## Proposed Changes

Ropsten blocks are so infrequent that they broke our algorithm for downloading eth1 blocks. We currently try to download forwards from the last block in our cache to the block with block number [`remote_highest_block - FOLLOW_DISTANCE + FOLLOW_DISTANCE / ETH1_BLOCK_TIME_TOLERANCE_FACTOR`](6f732986f1/beacon_node/eth1/src/service.rs (L489-L492)). With the tolerance set to 4 this is insufficient because we lag by 1536 blocks, which is more like ~14 hours on Ropsten. This results in us having an incomplete eth1 cache, because we should cache all blocks between -16h and -8h. Even if we were to set the tolerance to 2 for the largest allowance, we would only look back 1024 blocks which is still more than 8 hours.

For example consider this block https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/12321390. The block from 1536 blocks earlier is 14 hours and 20 minutes before it: https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/12319854. The block from 1024 blocks earlier is https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/12320366, 8 hours and 48 minutes before.

- This PR introduces a new CLI flag called `--eth1-cache-follow-distance` which can be used to set the distance manually.
- A new dynamic catchup mechanism is added which detects when the cache is lagging the true eth1 chain and tries to download more blocks within the follow distance in order to catch up.

## Issue Addressed

https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2895

## Proposed Changes

Lower the proposer boost to 40%, which is a trade-off against different types of attacks.

## Additional Info

8fa032c8ae Run fork choice before block proposal (#3168)
## Issue Addressed

Upcoming spec change https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2878

## Proposed Changes

1. Run fork choice at the start of every slot, and wait for this run to complete before proposing a block.
2. As an optimisation, also run fork choice 3/4 of the way through the slot (at 9s), _dequeueing attestations for the next slot_.
3. Remove the fork choice run from the state advance timer that occurred before advancing the state.

## Additional Info

### Block Proposal Accuracy

This change makes us more likely to propose on top of the correct head in the presence of re-orgs with proposer boost in play. The main scenario that this change is designed to address is described in the linked spec issue.

### Attestation Accuracy

This change _also_ makes us more likely to attest to the correct head. Currently in the case of a skipped slot at `slot` we only run fork choice 9s into `slot - 1`. This means the attestations from `slot - 1` aren't taken into consideration, and any boost applied to the block from `slot - 1` is not removed (it should be). In the language of the linked spec issue, this means we are liable to attest to C, even when the majority voting weight has already caused a re-org to B.

### Why remove the call before the state advance?

If we've run fork choice at the start of the slot then it has already dequeued all the attestations from the previous slot, which are the only ones eligible to influence the head in the current slot. Running fork choice again is unnecessary (unless we run it for the next slot and try to pre-empt a re-org, but I don't currently think this is a great idea).

### Performance

Based on Prater testing this adds about 5-25ms of runtime to block proposal times, which are 500-1000ms on average (and spike to 5s+ sometimes due to state handling issues 😢 ). I believe this is a small enough penalty to enable it by default, with the option to disable it via the new flag `--fork-choice-before-proposal-timeout 0`. Upcoming work on block packing and state representation will also reduce block production times in general, while removing the spikes.

### Implementation

Fork choice gets invoked at the start of the slot via the `per_slot_task` function called from the slot timer. It then uses a condition variable to signal to block production that fork choice has been updated. This is a bit funky, but it seems to work. One downside of the timer-based approach is that it doesn't happen automatically in most of the tests. The test added by this PR has to trigger the run manually.

38050fa460 Allow TaskExecutor to be used in async tests (#3178)
# Description

Since the `TaskExecutor` currently requires a `Weak<Runtime>`, it's impossible to use it in an async test where the `Runtime` is created outside our scope. Whilst we *could* create a new `Runtime` instance inside the async test, dropping that `Runtime` would cause a panic (you can't drop a `Runtime` in an async context).

To address this issue, this PR creates the `enum Handle`, which supports either:

- A `Weak<Runtime>` (for use in our production code)
- A `Handle` to a runtime (for use in testing)

In theory, there should be no change to the behaviour of our production code (beyond some slightly different descriptions in HTTP 500 errors), or even our tests. If there is no change, you might ask *"why bother?"*. There are two PRs (#3070 and #3175) that are waiting on these fixes to introduce some new tests. Since we've added the EL to the `BeaconChain` (for the merge), we are now doing more async stuff in tests.

I've also added a `RuntimeExecutor` to the `BeaconChainTestHarness`. Whilst that's not immediately useful, it will become useful in the near future with all the new async testing.

aa72088f8f v2.2.1 (#3149)
## Issue Addressed

Addresses sync stalls on v2.2.0 (i.e. https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3147).

## Additional Info

I've avoided doing a full `cargo update` because I noticed there's a new patch version of libp2p and thought it could do with some more testing.

4d0122444b Update and consolidate dependencies (#3136)
## Proposed Changes

I did some gardening 🌳 in our dependency tree:

- Remove duplicate versions of `warp` (git vs patch)
- Remove duplicate versions of lots of small deps: `cpufeatures`, `ethabi`, `ethereum-types`, `bitvec`, `nix`, `libsecp256k1`.
- Update MDBX (should resolve #3028). I tested and Lighthouse compiles on Windows 11 now.
- Restore `psutil` back to upstream
- Make some progress updating everything to rand 0.8. There are a few crates stuck on 0.7.

Hopefully this puts us on a better footing for future `cargo audit` issues, and improves compile times slightly.

## Additional Info

Some crates are held back by issues with `zeroize`. libp2p-noise depends on [`chacha20poly1305`](https://crates.io/crates/chacha20poly1305) which depends on zeroize < v1.5, and we can only have one version of zeroize because it's post 1.0 (see https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/6584). The latest version of `zeroize` is v1.5.4, which is used by the new versions of many other crates (e.g. `num-bigint-dig`). Once a new version of chacha20poly1305 is released we can update libp2p-noise and upgrade everything to the latest `zeroize` version.

I've also opened a PR to `blst` related to zeroize: https://github.com/supranational/blst/pull/111

375e2b49b3 Conserve disk space by raising default SPRP (#3137)
## Proposed Changes

Increase the default `--slots-per-restore-point` to 8192 for a 4x reduction in freezer DB disk usage.

Existing nodes that use the previous default of 2048 will be left unchanged. Newly synced nodes (with or without checkpoint sync) will use the new 8192 default. 

Long-term we could do away with the freezer DB entirely for validator-only nodes, but this change is much simpler and grants us some extra space in the short term. We can also roll it out gradually across our nodes by purging databases one by one, while keeping the Ansible config the same.

## Additional Info

We ignore a change from 2048 to 8192 if the user hasn't set the 8192 explicitly. We fire a debug log in the case where we do ignore:

```
DEBG Ignoring slots-per-restore-point config in favour of on-disk value, on_disk: 2048, config: 8192
