This will make it possible to use remaining weight on idle for

This works only for collators that implement the `collator_fn` allowing
`collation-generation` subsystem to pull collations triggered on new
heads.

Also enables
`request_v2::CollationFetchingResponse::CollationWithParentHeadData` for
test adder/undying collators.

PR adds CI jobs that collect subsystem-benchmarks results and publishes
them to gh-pages.

The authority-discovery mechanism has implemented a few exponential
timers for:
- publishing the authority records
- goes from 2 seconds (when freshly booted) to 1 hour if the node is
long-running
  - set to 1 hour after successfully publishing the authority record
- discovering other authority records
- goes from 2 seconds (when freshly booted) to 10 minutes if the node is
long-running

This PR resets the exponential publishing and discovery interval to
defaults ensuring that long-running nodes:
- will retry publishing the authority records as aggressively as freshly
booted nodes
- Currently, if a long-running node fails to publish the DHT record when
the keys change (ie DhtEvent::ValuePutFailed), it will only retry after
1 hour
- will rediscover other authorities faster (since there is a chance that
other authority keys changed)

The subp2p-explorer has difficulties discovering the authorities when
the authority set changes in the first few hours. This might be entirely
due to the recursive nature of the DHT and the needed time to propagate
the records. However, there is a small chance that the authority
publishing failed and is only retried in 1h.

Let me know if this makes sense 🙏

Fixes #3826.

The docs on the `candidates` field of `BlockEntry` were incorrectly
stating that they are sorted by core index. The (incorrect) optimization
was introduced in #3747 based on this assumption. The actual ordering is
based on `CandidateIncluded` events ordering in the runtime. We revert
this optimization here.

The PR provides API for obtaining:
- the weight required to execute an XCM message,
- a list of acceptable `AssetId`s for message execution payment,
- the cost of the weight in the specified acceptable `AssetId`.

It is meant to address an issue where one has to guess how much fee to
pay for execution. Also, at the moment, a client has to guess which
assets are acceptable for fee execution payment.
See the related issue
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/690.
With this API, a client is supposed to query the list of the supported
asset IDs (in the XCM version format the client understands), weigh the
XCM program the client wants to execute and convert the weight into one
of the acceptable assets. Note that the client is supposed to know what
program will be executed on what chains. However, having a small
companion JS library for the pallet-xcm and xtokens should be enough to
determine what XCM programs will be executed and where (since these
pallets compose a known small set of programs).
```Rust
pub trait XcmPaymentApi<Call>
	where
		Call: Codec,
	{
		/// Returns a list of acceptable payment assets.
		///
		/// # Arguments
		///
		/// * `xcm_version`: Version.
		fn query_acceptable_payment_assets(xcm_version: Version) -> Result<Vec<VersionedAssetId>, Error>;
		/// Returns a weight needed to execute a XCM.
		///
		/// # Arguments
		///
		/// * `message`: `VersionedXcm`.
		fn query_xcm_weight(message: VersionedXcm<Call>) -> Result<Weight, Error>;
		/// Converts a weight into a fee for the specified `AssetId`.
		///
		/// # Arguments
		///
		/// * `weight`: convertible `Weight`.
		/// * `asset`: `VersionedAssetId`.
		fn query_weight_to_asset_fee(weight: Weight, asset: VersionedAssetId) -> Result<u128, Error>;
		/// Get delivery fees for sending a specific `message` to a `destination`.
		/// These always come in a specific asset, defined by the chain.
		///
		/// # Arguments
		/// * `message`: The message that'll be sent, necessary because most delivery fees are based on the
		///   size of the message.
		/// * `destination`: The destination to send the message to. Different destinations may use
		///   different senders that charge different fees.
		fn query_delivery_fees(destination: VersionedLocation, message: VersionedXcm<()>) -> Result<VersionedAssets, Error>;

In preparation for the merkleized metadata, we need to ensure that
constants are actually constant. If we want to test the unsigned phase
we could for example just disable signed voter. Or we add some extra
mechanism to the pallet to disable the signed phase from time to time.

This PR notifies broker pallet for any parachain slot swaps performed on
the relay chain. This is achieved by registering an `OnSwap` for the the
`coretime` pallet. The hook sends XCM message to the broker chain and
invokes a new extrinsic `swap_leases` which updates `Leases` storage
item (which keeps the legacy parachain leases).

I made two assumptions in this PR:
1.
[`Leases`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/4987d798/substrate/frame/broker/src/lib.rs#L120)
in `broker` pallet and
[`Leases`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/4987d798

/polkadot/runtime/common/src/slots/mod.rs#L118)
in `slots` pallet are in sync.
2. `swap_leases` extrinsic from `broker` pallet can be triggered only by
root or by the XCM message from the relay chain. If not - the extrinsic
will generate an error and do nothing.

As a side effect from the changes `OnSwap` trait is moved from
runtime/common/traits.rs to runtime/parachains. Otherwise it is not
accessible from `broker` pallet.

Currently `transfer_assets` from pallet-xcm covers 4 main different
transfer types:
- `localReserve`
- `DestinationReserve`
- `Teleport`
- `RemoteReserve`

For the first three, the local execution and the remote message sending
are separated, and fees are deducted in pallet-xcm itself:
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/3410dfb3

/polkadot/xcm/pallet-xcm/src/lib.rs#L1758.

For the 4th case `RemoteReserve`, pallet-xcm is still relying on the
xcm-executor itself to send the message (through the
`initiateReserveWithdraw` instruction). In this case, if delivery fees
need to be charged, it is not possible to do so because the
`jit_withdraw` mode has not being set.

This PR proposes to still use the `initiateReserveWithdraw` but
prepending a `setFeesMode { jit_withdraw: true }` to make sure delivery
fees can be paid.

A test-case is also added to present the aforementioned case

We do not need to make these traits generic over QueryId type, we can
just use the QueryId alias everywhere

Make sure explicitly set by the operator public addresses go first in
the authority discovery DHT records.

Also update `Discovery` behavior to eliminate duplicates in the returned
addresses.

This PR should improve situation with
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3519.

Obsoletes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3657.

Bridging fees are calculated using a static ETH/DOT exchange rate that
can deviate significantly from the real-world exchange rate. We
therefore need to add a safety margin to the fee so that users almost
aways cover the cost of relaying.

# FAQ

> Why introduce a `multiplier` parameter instead of configuring an
exchange rate which already has a safety factor applied?

When converting from ETH to DOT, we need to _divide_ the multiplier by
the exchange rate, and to convert from DOT to ETH we need to _multiply_
the multiplier by the exchange rate.

> Other input parameters to the fee calculation can also deviate from
real-world values. These include substrate weights, gas prices, and so
on. Why does the multiplier introduced here not adjust those?

A single scalar multiplier won't be able to accommodate the different
volatilities efficiently. For example, gas prices are much more volatile
than exchange rates, and substrate weights hardly ever change.

So the pricing config relating to weights and gas prices should already
have some appropriate safety margin pre-applied.

# Detailed Changes:

* Added `multiplier` field to `PricingParameters`
* Outbound-queue fee is multiplied by `multiplier`
* This `multiplier` is synced to the Ethereum side
* Improved Runtime API for calculating outbound-queue fees. This API
makes it much easier to for configure parts of the system in preparation
for launch.
* Improve and clarify code documentation

## Bug Explanation
Adds a check that prevents finalized headers with a gap larger than the
sync committee period being imported, which could cause execution
headers in the gap being unprovable. The current version of the Ethereum
client checks that there is a header at least every sync committee, but
it doesn't check that the headers are within a sync period of each
other. For example:

Header 100 (sync committee period 1)
Header 9000 (sync committee period 2)
(8900 blocks apart)

These headers are in adjacent sync committees, but more than the sync
committee period (8192 blocks) apart.

The reason we need a header every 8192 slots at least, is the header is
used to prove messages within the last 8192 blocks. If we import header
9000, and we receive a message to be verified at header 200, the
`block_roots` field of header 9000 won't contain the header in order to
do the ancestry check.

## Environment
While running in Rococo, this edge case was discovered after the relayer
was offline for a few days. It is unlikely, but not impossible, to
happen again and so it should be backported to polkadot-sdk 1.7.0 (so
that
[polkadot-fellows/runtimes](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes)
can be updated with the fix).

Our Ethereum client has been operational on Rococo for the past few
months, and this been the only major issue discovered so far.

### Unrelated Change
An unrelated nit: Removes a left over file that should have been deleted
when the `parachain` directory was removed.

sending XCMs from the relay with origins not allowed in the current
configuration.

This PR backports small reformatting of the release notes templates.

This PR backports:
- node version bump
- `spec_vesion` bump
- reordering of the `prdocs` to the appropriate folder
from the `1.9.0` release branch

Step in https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3688

This PR proposes enabling PoV reclaim on the `rococo-parachain`
testchain to streamline testing and development of high-TPS stuff.

We witnessed really poor performance on Rococo, where we ended up with
50 on-demand cores. This was due to the fact that for each core the full
queue was processed. With this change full queue processing will happen
way less often (most of the time complexity is O(1) or O(log(n))) and if
it happens then only for one core (in expectation).

Also spot price is now updated before each order to ensure economic back
pressure.


TODO:

- [x] Implement
- [x] Basic tests
- [x] Add more tests (see todos)
- [x] Run benchmark to confirm better performance, first results suggest
> 100x faster.
- [x] Write migrations
- [x] Bump scale-info version and remove patch in Cargo.toml
- [x] Write PR docs: on-demand performance improved, more on-demand
cores are now non problematic anymore. If need by also the max queue
size can be increased again. (Maybe not to 10k)

Optional: Performance can be improved even more, if we called
`pop_assignment_for_core()`, before calling `report_processed` (Avoid
needless affinity drops). The effect gets smaller the larger the claim
queue and I would only go for it, if it does not add complexity to the
scheduler.
