It is because write known block only checks block and state without snapshot, which could lead to gap between newest snapshot and newest block state. However, new blocks which would cause snapshot to become fixed were ignored, since state was already known.

This removes some code:
- The clique engine calculated the snapshot twice when verifying headers/blocks.
- The method GetBlockHashesFromHash in Header/Block/Lightchain was only used by tests. It
is now removed from the API.
- The method GetTdByHash internally looked up the number before calling GetTd(hash, num).
In many cases, callers already had the number, and used this method just because it has a
shorter name. I have removed the method to make the API surface smaller.
This change removes misuses of sync.WaitGroup in BlockChain. Before this change,
block insertion modified the WaitGroup counter in order to ensure that Stop would wait
for pending operations to complete. This was racy and could even lead to crashes
if Stop was called at an unfortunate time. The issue is resolved by adding a specialized
'closable' mutex, which prevents chain modifications after stopping while also
synchronizing writers with each other.

This change is a rewrite of the freezer code.
When writing ancient chain data to the freezer, the previous version first encoded each
individual item to a temporary buffer, then wrote the buffer. For small item sizes (for
example, in the block hash freezer table), this strategy causes a lot of system calls for
writing tiny chunks of data. It also allocated a lot of temporary []byte buffers.
In the new version, we instead encode multiple items into a re-useable batch buffer, which
is then written to the file all at once. This avoids performing a system call for every
inserted item.
To make the internal batching work, the ancient database API had to be changed. While
integrating this new API in BlockChain.InsertReceiptChain, additional optimizations were
also added there.

This change adds the --catalyst flag, enabling an RPC API for eth2 integration.
In this initial version, catalyst mode also disables all peer-to-peer networking.

This commit splits the eth package, separating the handling of eth and snap protocols. It also includes the capability to run snap sync (https://github.com/ethereum/devp2p/blob/master/caps/snap.md) , but does not enable it by default.

* core: add test for headerchain inserts
* core, light: write headerchains in batches
* core: change to one callback per batch of inserted headers + review concerns
* core: error-check on batch write
* core: unexport writeHeaders
* core: remove callback parameter in InsertHeaderChain
The semantics of InsertHeaderChain are now much simpler: it is now an
all-or-nothing operation. The new WriteStatus return value allows
callers to check for the canonicality of the insertion. This change
simplifies use of HeaderChain in package les, where the callback was
previously used to post chain events.

This change introduces garbage collection for the light client. Historical
chain data is deleted periodically. If you want to disable the GC, use
the --light.nopruning flag.
This adds a new API method on core.BlockChain to allow interrupting
running data inserts, and calls the method before shutting down the
downloader.
The BlockChain interrupt checks are now done through a method instead
of inlining the atomic load everywhere. There is no loss of efficiency from
this and it makes the interrupt protocol a lot clearer because the check is
defined next to the method that sets the flag.

* 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
This change:
- removes the PostChainEvents method on core.BlockChain.
- sorts 'removed log' events by block number.
- fire the NewChainHead event if we inject a canonical block into the chain
even if the entire insertion is not successful.
- guarantees correct event ordering in all cases.

Transaction hashes now store a reference to their corresponding
block number as opposed to their hash. In benchmarks this was
shown to reduce storage by over 12 GB.
The main limitation of this approach is that transactions on
non-canonical blocks could never be looked up, however that is
currently not supported.
The database version has been upgraded to version 5 and the
transaction lookup process is backwards-compatible with the
prior two transaction lookup formats prexisting in the
database instance. Tests have been added to ensure this.
* core/rawdb: tiny review nit fixes
This PR is a more advanced form of the dirty-to-clean cacher (#18995),
where we reuse previous database write batches as datasets to uncache,
saving a dirty-trie-iteration and a dirty-trie-rlp-reencoding per block.
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.
