This changes the forkID calculation to ignore time-based forks that occurred before the
genesis block. It's supposed to be done this way because the spec says:
> If a chain is configured to start with a non-Frontier ruleset already in its genesis, that is NOT considered a fork.
This change removes PoW header syncing related code from LES and also deletes
duplicated packages les/catalyst, les/downloader and les/fetcher. These package copies
were created because people wanted to make changes in their eth/ counterparts, but weren't
able to adapt LES code to the API changes.
* all: remove notion of trusted checkpoints in the post-merge world
* light: remove unused function
* eth/ethconfig, les: remove unused config option
* les: make linter happy

This commit updates the code to the new spec, moving payloadId into
it's own object. It also fixes an issue with finalizing an empty blockhash.
It also properly sets the basefee

This PR introduces a new config field SyncFromCheckpoint for light client.
In some special scenarios, it's required to start synchronization from some
arbitrary checkpoint or even from the scratch. So this PR offers this
flexibility to users so that the synchronization start point can be configured.
There are two relevant configs: SyncFromCheckpoint and Checkpoint.
- If the SyncFromCheckpoint is true, the light client will try to sync from the
specified checkpoint.
- If the Checkpoint is not configured, then the light client will sync from the
scratch(from the latest header if the database is not empty)
Additional notes: these two configs are not visible in the CLI flags but only
accessable in the config file.
Example Usage:
[Eth]
SyncFromCheckpoint = true
[Eth.Checkpoint]
SectionIndex = 100
SectionHead = "0xabc"
CHTRoot = "0xabc"
BloomRoot = "0xabc"
PS. Historical checkpoint can be retrieved from the synced full node or light
client via les_getCheckpoint API.
This PR reimplements the light client server pool. It is also a first step
to move certain logic into a new lespay package. This package will contain
the implementation of the lespay token sale functions, the token buying and
selling logic and other components related to peer selection/prioritization
and service quality evaluation. Over the long term this package will be
reusable for incentivizing future protocols.
Since the LES peer logic is now based on enode.Iterator, it can now use
DNS-based fallback discovery to find servers.

This PR adds service value measurement statistics to the light client. It
also adds a private API that makes these statistics accessible. A follow-up
PR will add the new server pool which uses these statistics to select
servers with good performance.
