Disallow reserve transfers that use teleportable fees if `(origin,
fees)` matches `XcmTeleportFilter`.

Add regression tests for filtering based on `XcmTeleportFilter` for both
`(limited_)reserve_transfer_assets()` and `(limited_)teleport_assets`
extrinsics.

This PR introduces:
- XCM  host functions `xcm_send`, `xcm_execute`
- An Xcm trait into the config. that proxy these functions to to
`pallet_xcm`, or disable their usage by using `()`.
- A mock_network and xcm_test files to test the newly added xcm-related
functions.

Adds a `NodeFeatures` bitfield value to the runtime `HostConfiguration`,
with the purpose of coordinating the enabling of node-side features,
such as: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/628 and
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/598.
These are features that require all validators enable them at the same
time, assuming all/most nodes have upgraded their node versions.

This PR doesn't add any feature yet. These are coming in future PRs.

Also adds a runtime API for querying the state of the client features
and an extrinsic for setting/unsetting a feature by its index in the bitfield.

Note: originally part of:
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1644, but posted as
standalone to be reused by other PRs until the initial PR is merged

Port of cumulus PR https://github.com/paritytech/cumulus/pull/2960

This PR adds the ability to bid for collator slots even after the max
number of collators have already registered. This eliminates the first
come, first served mechanism that was in place before.

Key changes:
- added `update_bond` extrinsic to allow registered candidates to adjust
their bonds in order to dynamically control their bids
- added `take_candidate_slot` extrinsic to try to replace an already
existing candidate by bidding more than them
- candidates are now kept in a sorted list in the pallet storage, where
the top `DesiredCandidates` out of `MaxCandidates` candidates in the
list will be selected by the session pallet as collators
- if the candidacy bond is increased through a `set_candidacy_bond`
call, candidates which don't meet the new bond requirements are kicked

Turns out to access environment secrets the workflow must explicitly opt
in to the environment.

- switch from Rococo<>Wococo to Rococo<>Westend bridge
- add bidirectional simple tests
- remove Wococo chains from xcm-emulator
- added tests for assets transfers over Rococo<>Westend bridge 

fixes https://github.com/paritytech/parity-bridges-common/issues/2405

add details in `--dev` flag to tell that it disables local peer
discovery

### Context

When adding automated end-to-end tests, we replaced `--dev` by 

```
`--chain=dev`, `--force-authoring`, `--rpc-cors=all`, `--alice`, and `--tmp` flags
```

as stated in the command line documentation. But the tests started
failing due to the nodes connecting to each other.

### Fix

This PR includes additional command line documentation to explain more
in detail what `--dev` flag inludes.

Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2241

See issue comments for more details about this storage.

## Problem/Motivation
The benchmark for the `ExpectPallet` XCM instruction uses a hard-coded
version `4.0.0` for the `frame_system` pallet. Unfortunately, this
doesn't work for the `polkadot-fellows/runtimes` repository, where we
use dependencies from `crates.io`, e.g.,
[frame-system::23.0.0.0](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/blob/dd7f86f0d50064481ed0b7c0218494a5cfad997e/relay/kusama/Cargo.toml#L83).

Closes: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2284 

## Solution
This PR fixes the benchmarks that require pallet information and enables
the runtime to provide the correct/custom pallet information. The
default implementation provides `frame_system::Pallet` with index `0`,
where the version is not hard-coded but read from the runtime.


## Local testing

Added log for `T::valid_pallet` to the benchmarks like:
```
let valid_pallet = T::valid_pallet();
log::info!(
	target: "frame::benchmark::pallet",
	"valid_pallet: {}::{}::{}::{}::{}",
	valid_pallet.index,
	valid_pallet.module_name,
	valid_pallet.crate_version.major,
	valid_pallet.crate_version.minor,
	valid_pallet.crate_version.patch,
);
```

Run benchmarks for `westend`:
```
cargo run --bin=polkadot --features=runtime-benchmarks -- benchmark pallet --steps=2 --repeat=1 --extrinsic=* --heap-pages=4096 --json-file=./bench.json --chain=westend-dev --template=./polkadot/xcm/pallet-xcm-benchmarks/template.hbs --pallet=pallet_xcm_benchmarks::generic --output=./polkadot/runtime/westend/src/weights/xcm

BEEFY ECDSA signatures are on keccak has of the messages. As such we can
not simply call

`EcdsaBlsPair::verify(signature.as_inner_ref(), msg,
self.as_inner_ref())`

because that invokes ecdsa default verification which perfoms blake2
hash which we don't want.

This bring up the second issue makes: This makes `sign` and `verify`
function in `pair_crypto` useless, at least for BEEFY use case.
Moreover, there is no obvious clean way to generate the signature given
that pair_crypto does not exposes `sign_prehashed`. You could in theory
query the keystore for the pair (could you?), invoke `to_raw` and
re-generate each sub-pair and sign using each. But that sounds extremely
anticlimactic and will be frow upon by auditors . So I appreciate any
alternative suggestion.

Collators were previously reencoding the available data and checking the
erasure root.
Replace that with just checking the PoV hash, which consumes much less
CPU and takes less time.

We also don't need to check the `PersistedValidationData` hash, as
collators don't use it.

Reason:
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/575#issuecomment-1806572230

After systematic chunks recovery is merged, collators will no longer do
any reed-solomon encoding/decoding, which has proven to be a great CPU
consumer.

Because we only update the required reviews when someone approves, this

## Motivation

`pallet-xcm` is the main user-facing interface for XCM functionality,
including assets manipulation functions like `teleportAssets()` and
`reserve_transfer_assets()` calls.

While `teleportAsset()` works both ways, `reserve_transfer_assets()`
works only for sending reserve-based assets to a remote destination and
beneficiary when the reserve is the _local chain_.

## Solution

This PR enhances `pallet_xcm::(limited_)reserve_withdraw_assets` to
support transfers when reserves are other chains.
This will allow complete, **bi-directional** reserve-based asset
transfers user stories using `pallet-xcm`.

Enables following scenarios:
- transferring assets with local reserve (was previously supported iff
asset used as fee also had local reserve - now it works in all cases),
- transferring assets with reserve on destination,
- transferring assets with reserve on remote/third-party chain (iff
assets and fees have same remote reserve),
- transferring assets with reserve different than the reserve of the
asset to be used as fees - meaning can be used to transfer random asset
with local/dest reserve while using DOT for fees on all involved chains,
even if DOT local/dest reserve doesn't match asset reserve,
- transferring assets with any type of local/dest reserve while using
fees which can be teleported between involved chains.

All of the above is done by pallet inner logic without the user having
to specify which scenario/reserves/teleports/etc. The correct scenario
and corresponding XCM programs are identified, and respectively, built
automatically based on runtime configuration of trusted teleporters and
trusted reserves.

#### Current limitations:
- while `fees` and "non-fee" `assets` CAN have different reserves (or
fees CAN be teleported), the remaining "non-fee" `assets` CANNOT, among
themselves, have different reserve locations (this is also implicitly
enforced by `MAX_ASSETS_FOR_TRANSFER=2`, but this can be safely
increased in the future).
- `fees` and "non-fee" `assets` CANNOT have **different remote**
reserves (this could also be supported in the future, but adds even more
complexity while possibly not being worth it - we'll see what the future
holds).

This PR adds the following changes:
1. An attribute `pallet::feeless_if` that can be optionally attached to
a call like so:
```rust
#[pallet::feeless_if(|_origin: &OriginFor<T>, something: &u32| -> bool {
	*something == 0
})]
pub fn do_something(origin: OriginFor<T>, something: u32) -> DispatchResult {
     ....
}
```
The closure passed accepts references to arguments as specified in the
call fn. It returns a boolean that denotes the conditions required for
this call to be "feeless".

2. A signed extension `SkipCheckIfFeeless<T: SignedExtension>` that
wraps a transaction payment processor such as
`pallet_transaction_payment::ChargeTransactionPayment`. It checks for
all calls annotated with `pallet::feeless_if` to see if the conditions
are met. If so, the wrapped signed extension is not called, essentially
making the call feeless.

In order to use this, you can simply replace your existing signed
extension that manages transaction payment like so:
```diff
- pallet_transaction_payment::ChargeTransactionPayment<Runtime>,
+ pallet_skip_feeless_payment::SkipCheckIfFeeless<
+	Runtime,
+	pallet_transaction_payment::ChargeTransactionPayment<Runtime>,
+ >,
```

Remove the `GRANDPA_AUTHORITIES_KEY` key and its usage. Apparently this
was used in the early days to communicate the grandpa authorities to the
node. However, we have now a runtime api that does this for us. So, this
pull request is moving from the custom managed storage item to a FRAME
managed storage item.

This pr also includes a migration for doing the switch on a running
chain.

All `ChainSync` actions that `SyncingEngine` should perform are unified
under one `ChainSyncAction`. Processing of these actions put into a
single place after `select!` in `SyncingEngine::run` instead of multiple
places where calling `ChainSync` methods.

A utility function I consider quite useful to declare string literals
that are backed by an array.

We are introducing a new set of `XcmController` traits (final name yet
to be determined).
These traits are implemented by `pallet-xcm` and allows other pallets,
such as `pallet_contracts`, to rely on these traits instead of tight
coupling them to `pallet-xcm`.

Using only the existing Xcm traits would mean duplicating the logic from
`pallet-xcm` in these other pallets, which we aim to avoid. Our
objective is to ensure that when these APIs are called from
`pallet-contracts`, they produce the exact same outcomes as if called
directly from `pallet-xcm`.

The other benefits is that we can also expose return values to
`pallet-contracts` instead of just calling `pallet-xcm` dispatchable and
getting a `DispatchResult` back.

See traits integration in this PR
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1248, where the traits
are used as follow to define and implement `pallet-contracts` Config.
```rs
// Contracts config:
pub trait Config: frame_system::Config {
  // ...

  /// A type that exposes XCM APIs, allowing contracts to interact with other parachains, and
  /// execute XCM programs.
  type Xcm: xcm_executor::traits::Controller<
	  OriginFor<Self>,
	  <Self as frame_system::Config>::RuntimeCall,
	  BlockNumberFor<Self>,
  >;
}

// implementation
impl pallet_contracts::Config for Runtime {
        // ...

	type Xcm = pallet_xcm::Pallet<Self>;
}
```

Small PR that introduce a new crate that will host RISC-V & wasm
fixtures for testing pallet-contracts

The staging- rename commit was missing from the last PR for some reason.

When warp syncing we import the target block with all its state.
However, we didn't store the `LAST_PRUNED` block which would then lead
to `pruning` to forget about the imported block after a restart of the
node. We just set `LAST_PRUNED` to the parent block of the warp sync
target block to fix this issue.
