This PR removes `as [disambiguation_path]` syntax from `derive_impl`
usage across the polkadot-sdk as introduced in
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3505

Issues addressed in this PR:
- Improve *Penpal* runtime:
- Properly handled received assets. Previously, it treated `(1, Here)`
as the local native currency, whereas it should be treated as a
`ForeignAsset`. This wasn't a great example of standard Parachain
behaviour, as no Parachain treats the system asset as the local
currency.
- Remove `AllowExplicitUnpaidExecutionFrom` the system. Again, this
wasn't a great example of standard Parachain behaviour.
- Move duplicated
`ForeignAssetFeeAsExistentialDepositMultiplierFeeCharger` to
`assets_common` crate.
- Improve emulated tests:
  - Update *Penpal* tests to new runtime.
- To simplify tests, register the reserve transferred, teleported, and
system assets in *Penpal* and *AssetHub* genesis. This saves us from
having to create the assets repeatedly for each test
- Add missing test case:
`reserve_transfer_assets_from_para_to_system_para`.
  - Cleanup.
- Prevent integration tests crates imports from being re-exported, as
they were polluting the `polkadot-sdk` docs.

There is still a test case missing for reserve transfers:
- Reserve transfer of system asset from *Parachain* to *Parachain*
trough *AssetHub*.
- This is not yet possible with `pallet-xcm` due to the reasons
explained in https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3339

This is a refactoring, no changes to the logic are included (if you find
some, report :D).

## Change Overview
In https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2455, dependency on
actual runtimes was removed for the system parachains. This means that
the trait bounds we have on various `start_node_xy` do not check
anything anymore, since they all point to the same runtime. Exception is
asset-hub-polkadot which uses a different key type.

This PR unifies the different nodes as much as possible.
`start_node_impl` is doing the heavy lifting and has been made a bit
more flexible to support the rpc extension instantiation that was there
before.

The generics for `Runtime` and `AuraId` have been removed where
possible. The fake runtime is imported as `FakeRuntime` to make it very
clear to readers that it is not the generic parameter.

Multiple nodes where using the same import queue/start_consensus
closure, they have been unified.

Deprecate the `xcm::body::TREASURER_INDEX` constant and use the standard
Treasury variant from the `xcm::BodyId` type instead.

To align with the production runtimes:
https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/pull/149

The current `penpal` runtime utilizes the `EthereumLocation` parameter,
which is employed for XCM emulated integration tests concerning the
Rococo <> ETH bridge. It includes a hard-coded chainId for the Ethereum
testnet utilized in Rococo. The `EthereumLocation` serves the purpose of
aligning with the `TrustedReserves`. However, due to this hard-coded
configuration, reusing `penpal` for testing various environments such as
Kusama/Polkadot versus Ethereum bridge becomes unfeasible.

This PR introduces the capability to easily customize the asset location
for `TrustedReserves` without needing to know anything about Ethereum.


## TODO
- [x] fix integration tests with
`System::set_storage(CustomizableAssetFromSystemAssetHub::key(),
<whatever-location-is-needed>)` @claravanstaden

Closes #2160

First part of [Extrinsic
Horizon](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2415)

Introduces a new trait `TransactionExtension` to replace
`SignedExtension`. Introduce the idea of transactions which obey the
runtime's extensions and have according Extension data (né Extra data)
yet do not have hard-coded signatures.

Deprecate the terminology of "Unsigned" when used for
transactions/extrinsics owing to there now being "proper" unsigned
transactions which obey the extension framework and "old-style" unsigned
which do not. Instead we have __*General*__ for the former and
__*Bare*__ for the latter. (Ultimately, the latter will be phased out as
a type of transaction, and Bare will only be used for Inherents.)

Types of extrinsic are now therefore:
- Bare (no hardcoded signature, no Extra data; used to be known as
"Unsigned")
- Bare transactions (deprecated): Gossiped, validated with
`ValidateUnsigned` (deprecated) and the `_bare_compat` bits of
`TransactionExtension` (deprecated).
  - Inherents: Not gossiped, validated with `ProvideInherent`.
- Extended (Extra data): Gossiped, validated via `TransactionExtension`.
  - Signed transactions (with a hardcoded signature).
  - General transactions (without a hardcoded signature).

`TransactionExtension` differs from `SignedExtension` because:
- A signature on the underlying transaction may validly not be present.
- It may alter the origin during validation.
- `pre_dispatch` is renamed to `prepare` and need not contain the checks
present in `validate`.
- `validate` and `prepare` is passed an `Origin` rather than a
`AccountId`.
- `validate` may pass arbitrary information into `prepare` via a new
user-specifiable type `Val`.
- `AdditionalSigned`/`additional_signed` is renamed to
`Implicit`/`implicit`. It is encoded *for the entire transaction* and
passed in to each extension as a new argument to `validate`. This
facilitates the ability of extensions to acts as underlying crypto.

There is a new `DispatchTransaction` trait which contains only default
function impls and is impl'ed for any `TransactionExtension` impler. It
provides several utility functions which reduce some of the tedium from
using `TransactionExtension` (indeed, none of its regular functions
should now need to be called directly).

Three transaction version discriminator ("versions") are now
permissible:
- 0b000000100: Bare (used to be called "Unsigned"): contains Signature
or Extra (extension data). After bare transactions are no longer
supported, this will strictly identify an Inherents only.
- 0b100000100: Old-school "Signed" Transaction: contains Signature and
Extra (extension data).
- 0b010000100: New-school "General" Transaction: contains Extra
(extension data), but no Signature.

For the New-school General Transaction, it becomes trivial for authors
to publish extensions to the mechanism for authorizing an Origin, e.g.
through new kinds of key-signing schemes, ZK proofs, pallet state,
mutations over pre-authenticated origins or any combination of the
above.

## Code Migration

### NOW: Getting it to build

Wrap your `SignedExtension`s in `AsTransactionExtension`. This should be
accompanied by renaming your aggregate type in line with the new
terminology. E.g. Before:

```rust
/// The SignedExtension to the basic transaction logic.
pub type SignedExtra = (
	/* snip */
	MySpecialSignedExtension,
);
/// Unchecked extrinsic type as expected by this runtime.
pub type UncheckedExtrinsic =
	generic::UncheckedExtrinsic<Address, RuntimeCall, Signature, SignedExtra>;
```

After:

```rust
/// The extension to the basic transaction logic.
pub type TxExtension = (
	/* snip */
	AsTransactionExtension<MySpecialSignedExtension>,
);
/// Unchecked extrinsic type as expected by this runtime.
pub type UncheckedExtrinsic =
	generic::UncheckedExtrinsic<Address, RuntimeCall, Signature, TxExtension>;
```

You'll also need to alter any transaction building logic to add a
`.into()` to make the conversion happen. E.g. Before:

```rust
fn construct_extrinsic(
		/* snip */
) -> UncheckedExtrinsic {
	let extra: SignedExtra = (
		/* snip */
		MySpecialSignedExtension::new(/* snip */),
	);
	let payload = SignedPayload::new(call.clone(), extra.clone()).unwrap();
	let signature = payload.using_encoded(|e| sender.sign(e));
	UncheckedExtrinsic::new_signed(
		/* snip */
		Signature::Sr25519(signature),
		extra,
	)
}
```

After:

```rust
fn construct_extrinsic(
		/* snip */
) -> UncheckedExtrinsic {
	let tx_ext: TxExtension = (
		/* snip */
		MySpecialSignedExtension::new(/* snip */).into(),
	);
	let payload = SignedPayload::new(call.clone(), tx_ext.clone()).unwrap();
	let signature = payload.using_encoded(|e| sender.sign(e));
	UncheckedExtrinsic::new_signed(
		/* snip */
		Signature::Sr25519(signature),
		tx_ext,
	)
}
```

### SOON: Migrating to `TransactionExtension`

Most `SignedExtension`s can be trivially converted to become a
`TransactionExtension`. There are a few things to know.

- Instead of a single trait like `SignedExtension`, you should now
implement two traits individually: `TransactionExtensionBase` and
`TransactionExtension`.
- Weights are now a thing and must be provided via the new function `fn
weight`.

#### `TransactionExtensionBase`

This trait takes care of anything which is not dependent on types
specific to your runtime, most notably `Call`.

- `AdditionalSigned`/`additional_signed` is renamed to
`Implicit`/`implicit`.
- Weight must be returned by implementing the `weight` function. If your
extension is associated with a pallet, you'll probably want to do this
via the pallet's existing benchmarking infrastructure.

#### `TransactionExtension`

Generally:
- `pre_dispatch` is now `prepare` and you *should not reexecute the
`validate` functionality in there*!
- You don't get an account ID any more; you get an origin instead. If
you need to presume an account ID, then you can use the trait function
`AsSystemOriginSigner::as_system_origin_signer`.
- You get an additional ticket, similar to `Pre`, called `Val`. This
defines data which is passed from `validate` into `prepare`. This is
important since you should not be duplicating logic from `validate` to
`prepare`, you need a way of passing your working from the former into
the latter. This is it.
- This trait takes two type parameters: `Call` and `Context`. `Call` is
the runtime call type which used to be an associated type; you can just
move it to become a type parameter for your trait impl. `Context` is not
currently used and you can safely implement over it as an unbounded
type.
- There's no `AccountId` associated type any more. Just remove it.

Regarding `validate`:
- You get three new parameters in `validate`; all can be ignored when
migrating from `SignedExtension`.
- `validate` returns a tuple on success; the second item in the tuple is
the new ticket type `Self::Val` which gets passed in to `prepare`. If
you use any information extracted during `validate` (off-chain and
on-chain, non-mutating) in `prepare` (on-chain, mutating) then you can
pass it through with this. For the tuple's last item, just return the
`origin` argument.

Regarding `prepare`:
- This is renamed from `pre_dispatch`, but there is one change:
- FUNCTIONALITY TO VALIDATE THE TRANSACTION NEED NOT BE DUPLICATED FROM
`validate`!!
- (This is different to `SignedExtension` which was required to run the
same checks in `pre_dispatch` as in `validate`.)

Regarding `post_dispatch`:
- Since there are no unsigned transactions handled by
`TransactionExtension`, `Pre` is always defined, so the first parameter
is `Self::Pre` rather than `Option<Self::Pre>`.

If you make use of `SignedExtension::validate_unsigned` or
`SignedExtension::pre_dispatch_unsigned`, then:
- Just use the regular versions of these functions instead.
- Have your logic execute in the case that the `origin` is `None`.
- Ensure your transaction creation logic creates a General Transaction
rather than a Bare Transaction; this means having to include all
`TransactionExtension`s' data.
- `ValidateUnsigned` can still be used (for now) if you need to be able
to construct transactions which contain none of the extension data,
however these will be phased out in stage 2 of the Transactions Horizon,
so you should consider moving to an extension-centric design.

## TODO

- [x] Introduce `CheckSignature` impl of `TransactionExtension` to
ensure it's possible to have crypto be done wholly in a
`TransactionExtension`.
- [x] Deprecate `SignedExtension` and move all uses in codebase to
`TransactionExtension`.
  - [x] `ChargeTransactionPayment`
  - [x] `DummyExtension`
  - [x] `ChargeAssetTxPayment` (asset-tx-payment)
  - [x] `ChargeAssetTxPayment` (asset-conversion-tx-payment)
  - [x] `CheckWeight`
  - [x] `CheckTxVersion`
  - [x] `CheckSpecVersion`
  - [x] `CheckNonce`
  - [x] `CheckNonZeroSender`
  - [x] `CheckMortality`
  - [x] `CheckGenesis`
  - [x] `CheckOnlySudoAccount`
  - [x] `WatchDummy`
  - [x] `PrevalidateAttests`
  - [x] `GenericSignedExtension`
  - [x] `SignedExtension` (chain-polkadot-bulletin)
  - [x] `RefundSignedExtensionAdapter`
- [x] Implement `fn weight` across the board.
- [ ] Go through all pre-existing extensions which assume an account
signer and explicitly handle the possibility of another kind of origin.
- [x] `CheckNonce` should probably succeed in the case of a non-account
origin.
- [x] `CheckNonZeroSender` should succeed in the case of a non-account
origin.
- [x] `ChargeTransactionPayment` and family should fail in the case of a
non-account origin.
  - [ ] 
- [x] Fix any broken tests.

#2116 is blocked by this

This PR backports Node version and `spec_version` bumps to `1.8.0` from
the latest release and orders prdoc files related to it.

If an XCM execution fails or ends with leftover assets, these will be
trapped.
In order to claim them, a custom XCM has to be executed, with the
`ClaimAsset` instruction.
However, arbitrary XCM execution is not allowed everywhere yet and XCM
itself is still not easy enough to use for users out there with trapped
assets.
This new extrinsic in `pallet-xcm` will allow these users to easily
claim their assets, without concerning themselves with writing arbitrary
XCMs.

This MR is the merge of
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/14414 and
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/14275. It implements
[RFC#13](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/RFCs/pull/13), closes
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/198.

----- 

This Merge request introduces three major topicals:

1. Multi-Block-Migrations
1. New pallet `poll` hook for periodic service work
1. Replacement hooks for `on_initialize` and `on_finalize` in cases
where `poll` cannot be used

and some more general changes to FRAME.  
The changes for each topical span over multiple crates. They are listed
in topical order below.

# 1.) Multi-Block-Migrations

Multi-Block-Migrations are facilitated by creating `pallet_migrations`
and configuring `System::Config::MultiBlockMigrator` to point to it.
Executive picks this up and triggers one step of the migrations pallet
per block.
The chain is in lockdown mode for as long as an MBM is ongoing.
Executive does this by polling `MultiBlockMigrator::ongoing` and not
allowing any transaction in a block, if true.

A MBM is defined through trait `SteppedMigration`. A condensed version
looks like this:
```rust
/// A migration that can proceed in multiple steps.
pub trait SteppedMigration {
	type Cursor: FullCodec + MaxEncodedLen;
	type Identifier: FullCodec + MaxEncodedLen;

	fn id() -> Self::Identifier;

	fn max_steps() -> Option<u32>;

	fn step(
		cursor: Option<Self::Cursor>,
		meter: &mut WeightMeter,
	) -> Result<Option<Self::Cursor>, SteppedMigrationError>;
}
```

`pallet_migrations` can be configured with an aggregated tuple of these
migrations. It then starts to migrate them one-by-one on the next
runtime upgrade.
Two things are important here:
- 1. Doing another runtime upgrade while MBMs are ongoing is not a good
idea and can lead to messed up state.
- 2. **Pallet Migrations MUST BE CONFIGURED IN `System::Config`,
otherwise it is not used.**

The pallet supports an `UpgradeStatusHandler` that can be used to notify
external logic of upgrade start/finish (for example to pause XCM
dispatch).

Error recovery is very limited in the case that a migration errors or
times out (exceeds its `max_steps`). Currently the runtime dev can
decide in `FailedMigrationHandler::failed` how to handle this. One
follow-up would be to pair this with the `SafeMode` pallet and enact
safe mode when an upgrade fails, to allow governance to rescue the
chain. This is currently not possible, since governance is not
`Mandatory`.

## Runtime API

- `Core`: `initialize_block` now returns `ExtrinsicInclusionMode` to
inform the Block Author whether they can push transactions.

### Integration

Add it to your runtime implementation of `Core` and `BlockBuilder`:
```patch
diff --git a/runtime/src/lib.rs b/runtime/src/lib.rs
@@ impl_runtime_apis! {
	impl sp_block_builder::Core<Block> for Runtime {
-		fn initialize_block(header: &<Block as BlockT>::Header) {
+		fn initialize_block(header: &<Block as BlockT>::Header) -> RuntimeExecutiveMode {
			Executive::initialize_block(header)
		}

		...
	}
```

# 2.) `poll` hook

A new pallet hook is introduced: `poll`. `Poll` is intended to replace
mostly all usage of `on_initialize`.
The reason for this is that any code that can be called from
`on_initialize` cannot be migrated through an MBM. Currently there is no
way to statically check this; the implication is to use `on_initialize`
as rarely as possible.
Failing to do so can result in broken storage invariants.

The implementation of the poll hook depends on the `Runtime API` changes
that are explained above.

# 3.) Hard-Deadline callbacks

Three new callbacks are introduced and configured on `System::Config`:
`PreInherents`, `PostInherents` and `PostTransactions`.
These hooks are meant as replacement for `on_initialize` and
`on_finalize` in cases where the code that runs cannot be moved to
`poll`.
The reason for this is to make the usage of HD-code (hard deadline) more
explicit - again to prevent broken invariants by MBMs.

# 4.) FRAME (general changes)

## `frame_system` pallet

A new memorize storage item `InherentsApplied` is added. It is used by
executive to track whether inherents have already been applied.
Executive and can then execute the MBMs directly between inherents and
transactions.

The `Config` gets five new items:
- `SingleBlockMigrations` this is the new way of configuring migrations
that run in a single block. Previously they were defined as last generic
argument of `Executive`. This shift is brings all central configuration
about migrations closer into view of the developer (migrations that are
configured in `Executive` will still work for now but is deprecated).
- `MultiBlockMigrator` this can be configured to an engine that drives
MBMs. One example would be the `pallet_migrations`. Note that this is
only the engine; the exact MBMs are injected into the engine.
- `PreInherents` a callback that executes after `on_initialize` but
before inherents.
- `PostInherents` a callback that executes after all inherents ran
(including MBMs and `poll`).
- `PostTransactions` in symmetry to `PreInherents`, this one is called
before `on_finalize` but after all transactions.

A sane default is to set all of these to `()`. Example diff suitable for
any chain:
```patch
@@ impl frame_system::Config for Test {
 	type MaxConsumers = ConstU32<16>;
+	type SingleBlockMigrations = ();
+	type MultiBlockMigrator = ();
+	type PreInherents = ();
+	type PostInherents = ();
+	type PostTransactions = ();
 }
```

An overview of how the block execution now looks like is here. The same
graph is also in the rust doc.

Introduce storage attr macro `#[disable_try_decode_storage]` and set it on `System::Events` and `ParachainSystem::HostConfiguration` (#3454)

Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2560

Allows marking storage items with `#[disable_try_decode_storage]`, and
uses it with `System::Events`.

Question: what's the recommended way to write a test for this? I
couldn't find a test for similar existing macro `#[whitelist_storage]`.

Hey everyone,

this PR will replace existing Polkadotters bootnodes for Polkadot,
Kusama and Westend and add Paseo bootnode to the relay chain suite. At
the same time, it will add new bootnodes for all the system parachains,
including People on Westend. This PR is a part of our membership in the
IBP, meaning that all the bootnodes are hosted on our hardware housed in
the data center in Christchurch, New Zealand.
All the bootnodes were tested with an empty chain spec file with the
following command yielding 1 peer.

When running `cargo test -p bridge-hub-rococo-runtime --features
runtime-benchmarks`, two of the Snowbridge benchmark tests fails. The
reason is that when the runtime-benchmarks feature is enabled, the
`NoopMessageProcessor` message processor is used. The Snowbridge tests
rely on the outbound messages to be processed using the message queue,
so that we can check the expected nonce and block digest logs.

This PR changes the conditional compilation to only use
`NoopMessageProcessor` when compiling the executable to run benchmarks
against, not when running tests.

## Problem
During the bumping of the `polkadot-fellows` repository to
`polkadot-sdk@1.6.0`, I encountered a situation where the benchmarks
`teleport_assets` and `reserve_transfer_assets` in AssetHubKusama
started to fail. This issue arose due to a decreased ED balance for
AssetHubs introduced
[here](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/pull/158/files#diff-80668ff8e793b64f36a9a3ec512df5cbca4ad448c157a5d81abda1b15f35f1daR213),
and also because of a [missing CI
pipeline](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/issues/197) to
check the benchmarks, which went unnoticed.

These benchmarks expect the `caller` to have enough:
1. balance to transfer (BTT)
2. balance for paying delivery (BFPD).
 
So the initial balance was calculated as `ED * 100`, which seems
reasonable:
```
const ED_MULTIPLIER: u32 = 100;
let balance = existential_deposit.saturating_mul(ED_MULTIPLIER.into());`
```
The problem arises when the price for delivery is 100 times higher than
the existential deposit. In other words, when `ED * 100` does not cover
`BTT` + `BFPD`.

I check AHR/AHW/AHK/AHP and this problem has only AssetHubKusama
```
ED: 3333333
calculated price to parent delivery:  1031666634  (from xcm logs from the benchmark)
---

3333333 * 100 - BTT(3333333) - BFPD(1031666634) = −701666667
```
which results in the error;
```
2024-02-23 09:19:42 Unable to charge fee with error Module(ModuleError { index: 31, error: [17, 0, 0, 0], message: Some("FeesNotMet") })
Error: Input("Benchmark pallet_xcm::reserve_transfer_assets failed: FeesNotMet")
     
```

## Solution

The benchmarks `teleport_assets` and `reserve_transfer_assets` were
fixed by removing `ED * 100` and replacing it with `DeliveryHelper`
logic, which calculates the (almost real) price for delivery and sets it
along with the existential deposit as the initial balance for the
account used in the benchmark.

# Runtime side for PoV Reclaim

## Implementation Overview
- Hostfunction to fetch the storage proof size has been added to the
PVF. It uses the size tracking recorder that was introduced in my
previous PR.
- Mechanisms to use the reclaim HostFunction have been introduced.
- 1. A SignedExtension that checks the node-reported proof size before
and after application of an extrinsic. Then it reclaims the difference.
- 2. A manual helper to make reclaiming easier when manual interaction
is required, for example in `on_idle` or other hooks.
- In order to utilize the manual reclaiming, I modified `WeightMeter` to
support the reduction of consumed weight, at least for storage proof
size.

## How to use
To enable the general functionality for a parachain:
1. Add the SignedExtension to your parachain runtime. 
2. Provide the HostFunction to the node
3. Enable proof recording during block import

Add a `ApiVersion` constant to the pallet-contracts Config to
communicate with developers the current state of the host functions
exposed by the pallet

Related to https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3400

Extracting small parts of
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3429 into separate PR:

- Add support for BHP local and BHK local
- Increase the timeout for the bridge zomienet tests

This introduces a check to ensure that the parachain code matches the
validation code stored in the relay chain state. If not, it will print a
warning. This should be mainly useful for parachain builders to make
sure they have setup everything correctly.

- Adds a test to check the correct digest for Snowbridge outbound
messages. For the correct digest to be in the block, the the
MessageQueue pallet should be configured after the EthereumOutbound
queue pallet. The added test fails if the EthereumOutbound is configured
after the MessageQueue pallet.
- Adds a helper method `run_to_block_with_finalize` to simulate the
block finalizing. The existing `run_to_block` method does not finalize
and so it cannot successfully test this condition.

I dont think this bound is required by anything else and it allows now
to use this struct with runtimes that have 20 bytes accounts

---------

Co-authored-by: Bastian Köcher <git@kchr.de>

The rationale behind this, is that it may be useful for some users
actually disable RPC batch requests or limit them by length instead of
the total size bytes of the batch.

This PR adds two new CLI options:

```
--rpc-disable-batch-requests - disable batch requests on the server
--rpc-max-batch-request-len <LEN> - limit batches to LEN on the server.
```
