Here we clean up internal uses of type discover.node, converting most code to use
enode.Node instead. The discover.node type used to be the canonical representation of
network hosts before ENR was introduced. Most code worked with *node to avoid conversions
when interacting with Table methods. Since *node also contains internal state of Table and
is a mutable type, using *node outside of Table code is prone to data races. It's also
cleaner not having to wrap/unwrap *enode.Node all the time.
discover.node has been renamed to tableNode to clarify its purpose.
While here, we also change most uses of net.UDPAddr into netip.AddrPort. While this is
technically a separate refactoring from the *node -> *enode.Node change, it is more
convenient because *enode.Node handles IP addresses as netip.Addr. The switch to package
netip in discovery would've happened very soon anyway.
The change to netip.AddrPort stops at certain interface points. For example, since package
p2p/netutil has not been converted to use netip.Addr yet, we still have to convert to
net.IP/net.UDPAddr in a few places.
It seems the semantic differences between addFoundNode and addInboundNode were lost in
#29572. My understanding is addFoundNode is for a node you have not contacted directly
(and are unsure if is available) whereas addInboundNode is for adding nodes that have
contacted the local node and we can verify they are active.
handleAddNode seems to be the consolidation of those two methods, yet it bumps the node in
the bucket (updating it's IP addr) even if the node was not an inbound. This PR fixes
this. It wasn't originally caught in tests like TestTable_addSeenNode because the
manipulation of the node object actually modified the node value used by the test.
New logic is added to reject non-inbound updates unless the sequence number of the
(signed) ENR increases. Inbound updates, which are published by the updated node itself,
are always accepted. If an inbound update changes the endpoint, the node will be
revalidated on an expedited schedule.

In #29572, I assumed the revalidation list that the node is contained in could only ever
be changed by the outcome of a revalidation request. But turns out that's not true: if the
node gets removed due to FINDNODE failure, it will also be removed from the list it is in.
This causes a crash.
The invariant is: while node is in table, it is always in exactly one of the two lists. So
it seems best to store a pointer to the current list within the node itself.
Node discovery periodically revalidates the nodes in its table by sending PING, checking
if they are still alive. I recently noticed some issues with the implementation of this
process, which can cause strange results such as nodes dropping unexpectedly, certain
nodes not getting revalidated often enough, and bad results being returned to incoming
FINDNODE queries.
In this change, the revalidation process is improved with the following logic:
- We maintain two 'revalidation lists' containing the table nodes, named 'fast' and 'slow'.
- The process chooses random nodes from each list on a randomized interval, the interval being
faster for the 'fast' list, and performs revalidation for the chosen node.
- Whenever a node is newly inserted into the table, it goes into the 'fast' list.
Once validation passes, it transfers to the 'slow' list. If a request fails, or the
node changes endpoint, it transfers back into 'fast'.
- livenessChecks is incremented by one for successful checks. Unlike the old implementation,
we will not drop the node on the first failing check. We instead quickly decay the
livenessChecks give it another chance.
- Order of nodes in bucket doesn't matter anymore.
I am also adding a debug API endpoint to dump the node table content.

This change
- Removes interface `log.Format`,
- Removes method `log.FormatFunc`,
- unexports `TerminalHandler.TerminalFormat` formatting methods (renamed to `TerminalHandler.format`)
- removes the notion of `log.Lazy` values
The lazy handler was useful in the old log package, since it
could defer the evaluation of costly attributes until later in the
log pipeline: thus, if the logging was done at 'Trace', we could
skip evaluation if logging only was set to 'Info'.
With the move to slog, this way of deferring evaluation is no longer
needed, since slog introduced 'Enabled': the caller can thus do
the evaluate-or-not decision at the callsite, which is much more
straight-forward than dealing with lazy reflect-based evaluation.
Also, lazy evaluation would not work with 'native' slog, as in, these
two statements would be evaluated differently:
```golang
log.Info("foo", "my lazy", lazyObj)
slog.Info("foo", "my lazy", lazyObj)
```
This PR replaces Geth's logger package (a fork of [log15](https://github.com/inconshreveable/log15)) with an implementation using slog, a logging library included as part of the Go standard library as of Go1.21.
Main changes are as follows:
* removes any log handlers that were unused in the Geth codebase.
* Json, logfmt, and terminal formatters are now slog handlers.
* Verbosity level constants are changed to match slog constant values. Internal translation is done to make this opaque to the user and backwards compatible with existing `--verbosity` and `--vmodule` options.
* `--log.backtraceat` and `--log.debug` are removed.
The external-facing API is largely the same as the existing Geth logger. Logger method signatures remain unchanged.
A small semantic difference is that a `Handler` can only be set once per `Logger` and not changed dynamically. This just means that a new logger must be instantiated every time the handler of the root logger is changed.

For users of the `go-ethereum/log` module. If you were using this module for your own project, you will need to change the initialization. If you previously did
```golang
log.Root().SetHandler(log.LvlFilterHandler(log.LvlInfo, log.StreamHandler(os.Stderr, log.TerminalFormat(true))))
```
You now instead need to do
```golang
log.SetDefault(log.NewLogger(log.NewTerminalHandlerWithLevel(os.Stderr, log.LevelInfo, true)))
```

The Go authors updated golang/x/ext to change the function signature of the slices sort method.
It's an entire shitshow now because x/ext is not tagged, so everyone's codebase just
picked a new version that some other dep depends on, causing our code to fail building.
This PR updates the dep on our code too and does all the refactorings to follow upstream...
In all other UDPv4 methods, the deadline is checked first. It seems weird to me that ping is an exception. Deadline comparison is also less resource intensive.

* p2p/discover: remove ReadRandomNodes
Even though it's public, this method is not callable by code outside of
package p2p/discover because one can't get a valid instance of Table.
* p2p/discover: add Table.Nodes
* p2p/discover: make Table settings configurable
In unit tests and externally developed cmd/devp2p test runs, it can be
useful to tune the timer intervals used by Table.
This changes TALKREQ message processing to run the handler on separate goroutine,
instead of running on the main discv5 dispatcher goroutine. It's better this way because
it allows the handler to perform blocking actions.
I'm also adding a new method TalkRequestToID here. The method allows implementing
a request flow where one node A sends TALKREQ to another node B, and node B later
sends a TALKREQ back. With TalkRequestToID, node B does not need the ENR of A to
send its request.
This PR is a (superior) alternative to https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/26708, it handles deprecation, primarily two specific cases.
`rand.Seed` is typically used in two ways
- `rand.Seed(time.Now().UnixNano())` -- we seed it, just to be sure to get some random, and not always get the same thing on every run. This is not needed, with global seeding, so those are just removed.
- `rand.Seed(1)` this is typically done to ensure we have a stable test. If we rely on this, we need to fix up the tests to use a deterministic prng-source. A few occurrences like this has been replaced with a proper custom source.
`rand.Read` has been replaced by `crypto/rand`.`Read` in this PR.
* p2p/discover: add more packet information in logs
This adds more fields to discv5 packet logs. These can be useful when
debugging multi-packet interactions.
The FINDNODE message also gets an additional field, OpID for debugging
purposes. This field is not encoded onto the wire.
I'm also removing topic system related message types in this change.
These will come back in the future, where support for them will be
guarded by a config flag.
* p2p/discover/v5wire: rename 'Total' to 'RespCount'
The new name captures the meaning of this field better.
This improves readability of function 'push'.
sort.Search(N, ...) will at most return N when no match, so ix should be compared
with N. The previous version would compare ix with N+1 in case an additional item
was appended. No bug resulted from this comparison, but it's not easy to understand
why.

It seems there is no fully typed library implementation of an LRU cache.
So I wrote one. Method names are the same as github.com/hashicorp/golang-lru,
and the new type can be used as a drop-in replacement.
Two reasons to do this:
- It's much easier to understand what a cache is for when the types are right there.
- Performance: the new implementation is slightly faster and performs zero memory
allocations in Add when the cache is at capacity. Overall, memory usage of the cache
is much reduced because keys are values are no longer wrapped in interface.
Instead of using a limit of three nodes per message, we can pack more nodes
into each message based on ENR size. In my testing, this halves the number
of sent NODES messages, because ENR size is usually < 300 bytes.
This also adds RLP helper functions that compute the encoded size of
[]byte and string.

Noticed that lookupDistances for FINDNODE requests didn't consider 256 a valid
distance. This is actually part of the example in the comment above the
function, surprised that wasn't tested before.
This changes the CI / release builds to use the latest Go version. It also
upgrades golangci-lint to a newer version compatible with Go 1.19.
In Go 1.19, godoc has gained official support for links and lists. The
syntax for code blocks in doc comments has changed and now requires a
leading tab character. gofmt adapts comments to the new syntax
automatically, so there are a lot of comment re-formatting changes in this
PR. We need to apply the new format in order to pass the CI lint stage with
Go 1.19.
With the linter upgrade, I have decided to disable 'gosec' - it produces
too many false-positive warnings. The 'deadcode' and 'varcheck' linters
have also been removed because golangci-lint warns about them being
unmaintained. 'unused' provides similar coverage and we already have it
enabled, so we don't lose much with this change.
