This change removes support for subscribing to pending logs.
"Pending logs" were always an odd feature, because it can never be fully reliable. When support for it was added many years ago, the intention was for this to be used by wallet apps to show the 'potential future token balance' of accounts, i.e. as a way of notifying the user of incoming transfers before they were mined. In order to generate the pending logs, the node must pick a subset of all public mempool transactions, execute them in the EVM, and then dispatch the resulting logs to API consumers.
* eth, miner: fix enforcing the minimum miner tip
* ethclient/simulated: fix failing test due the min tip change
* accounts/abi/bind: fix simulater gas tip issue
* accounts, ethclient: minor tweaks on the new simulated backend
* ethclient/simulated: add an initial batch of gas options
* accounts, ethclient: remove mandatory gasLimit constructor param
* accounts, ethclient: minor option naming tweaks
This is a rewrite of the 'simulated backend', an implementation of the ethclient interfaces
which is backed by a simulated blockchain. It was getting annoying to maintain the old
version of the simulated backend feature because there was a lot of code duplication with
the main client.
The new version is built using parts that we already have: an in-memory geth node instance
running in developer mode provides the chain, while the Go API is provided by ethclient.
A backwards-compatibility wrapper is provided, but the simulated backend has also moved to
a more sensible import path: github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/ethclient/simulated
