- Moved `substrate/frame/contracts/src/tests/builder.rs` into a pub
test_utils module, so we can use that in the
`pallet-contracts-mock-network` tests
- Refactor xcm tests to use XCM builders, and simplify the use case for
xcm-send

Preparation for https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3935

Changes:
- Add some `default-features = false` for the case that a crate and that
dependency both support nostd builds.
- Shuffle files around of some benchmarking-only crates. These
conditionally disabled the `cfg_attr` for nostd and pulled in libstd.
Example [here](https://github.com/ggwpez/zepter/pull/95). The actual
logic is moved into a `inner.rs` to preserve nostd capability of the
crate in case the benchmarking feature is disabled.
- Add some `use sp_std::vec` where needed.
- Remove some `optional = true` in cases where it was not optional.
- Removed one superfluous `cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), no_std..`.

All in all this should be logical no-op.

This PR ensures that the reported pruned blocks are unique.

While at it, ensure that the best block event is properly generated when
the last best block is a fork that will be pruned in the future.

To achieve this, the chainHead keeps a LRU set of reported pruned blocks
to ensure the following are not reported twice:

```bash
	 finalized -> block 1 -> block 2 -> block 3
	
	                      -> block 2 -> block 4 -> block 5
	
	           -> block 1 -> block 2_f -> block 6 -> block 7 -> block 8
```

When block 7 is finalized the branch [block 2; block 3] is reported as
pruned.
When block 8 is finalized the branch [block 2; block 4; block 5] should
be reported as pruned, however block 2 was already reported as pruned at
the previous step.

This is a side-effect of the pruned blocks being reported at level N -
1. For example, if all pruned forks would be reported with the first
encounter (when block 6 is finalized we know that block 3 and block 5
are stale), we would not need the LRU cache.

Improve doc:

* the pallet macro is actually referring to 2 places, for the module and
for the struct placeholder but doesn't really clarify it (I should have
named the latter just `pallet_struct` or something but it is a bit late)

* The doc of `with_default` is a bit confusing too IMO.

This PR introduces changes enabling the transfer of coretime regions via
XCM.

TL;DR: There are two primary issues that are resolved in this PR:

1. The `mint` and `burn` functions were not implemented for coretime
regions. These operations are essential for moving assets to and from
the XCM holding register.
2. The transfer of non-fungible assets through XCM was previously
disallowed. This was due to incorrectly benchmarking non-fungible asset
transfers via XCM, which led to assigning it a weight of `Weight::Max`,
effectively preventing its execution.

### `mint_into` and `burn` implementation

This PR addresses the issue with cross-chain transferring regions back
to the Coretime chain. Remote reserve transfers are performed by
withdrawing and depositing the asset to and from the holding registry.
This requires the asset to support burning and minting functionality.

This PR adds burning and minting; however, they work a bit differently
than usual so that the associated region record is not lost when
burning. Instead of removing all the data, burning will set the owner of
the region to `None`, and when minting it back, it will set it to an
actual value. So, when cross-chain transferring, withdrawing into the
registry will remove the region from its original owner, and when
depositing it from the registry, it will set its owner to another
account

This was originally implemented in this PR: #3455, however we decided to
move all of it to this single PR
(https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3455#discussion_r1547324892)

### Fixes made in this PR

- Update the `XcmReserveTransferFilter` on coretime chain since it is
meant as a reserve chain for coretime regions.
- Update the XCM benchmark to use `AssetTransactor` instead of assuming
`pallet-balances` for fungible transfers.
- Update the XCM benchmark to properly measure weight consumption for
nonfungible reserve asset transfers. ATM reserve transfers via the
extrinsic do not work since the weight for it is set to `Weight::max()`.

`LiveAsset` is an error to be returned when an asset is not supposed to
be live.
And `AssetNotLive` is an error to be returned when an asset is supposed
to be live, I don't think frozen qualifies as live.

The first test proves that parachains who were migrated over on a legacy
lease can renew without downtime.

The exception is if their lease expires in period 0 - aka within
`region_length` timeslices after `start_sales` is called. The second
test is designed such that it passes if the issue exists and should be
fixed.
This will require an intervention on Kusama to add these renewals to
storage as it is too tight to schedule a runtime upgrade before the
start_sales call. All leases will still have at least two full regions
of coretime.

This PR ensures the proper logging target (ie `libp2p_tcp` or `beefy`)
is displayed.

The issue has been introduced in:
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4059, which removes the
normalized metadata of logs.

From
[documentation](https://docs.rs/tracing-log/latest/tracing_log/trait.NormalizeEvent.html#tymethod.normalized_metadata):

> In tracing-log, an Event produced by a log (through
[AsTrace](https://docs.rs/tracing-log/latest/tracing_log/trait.AsTrace.html))
has an hard coded “log” target

>
[normalized_metadata](https://docs.rs/tracing-log/latest/tracing_log/trait.NormalizeEvent.html#tymethod.normalized_metadata):
If this Event comes from a log, this method provides a new normalized
Metadata which has all available attributes from the original log,
including file, line, module_path and target

This has low implications if a version was deployed containing the
mentioned pull request, as we'll lose the ability to distinguish between
log targets.

Part of: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/4107

While `sp-api-proc-macro` isn't used directly and thus, it should have
the same features enabled as `sp-api`. However, I have seen issues
around `frame-metadata` not being enabled for `sp-api`, but for
`sp-api-proc-macro`. This can be prevented by using the
`frame_metadata_enabled` macro from `sp-api` that ensures we have the
same feature set between both crates.

As discovered during investigation of
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3314 and
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3673 there are active
validators which accidentally might change their network key during
restart, that's not a safe operation when you are in the active set
because of distributed nature of DHT, so the old records would still
exist in the network until they expire 36h, so unless they have a good
reason validators should avoid changing their key when they restart
their nodes.

There is an effort in parallel to improve this situation
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3786, but those changes
are way more intrusive and will need more rigorous testing, additionally
they will reduce the time to less than 36h, but the propagation won't be
instant anyway, so not changing your network during restart should be
the safest way to run your node, unless you have a really good reason to
change it.

## Proposal
1. Do not auto-generate the network if the network file does not exist
in the provided path. Nodes where the key file does not exist will get
the following error:
```
Error: 
   0: Starting an authorithy without network key in /home/alexggh/.local/share/polkadot/chains/ksmcc3/network/secret_ed25519.
      
       This is not a safe operation because the old identity still lives in the dht for 36 hours.
      
       Because of it your node might suffer from not being properly connected to other nodes for validation purposes.
      
       If it is the first time running your node you could use one of the following methods.
      
       1. Pass --unsafe-force-node-key-generation and make sure you remove it for subsequent node restarts
      
       2. Separetly generate the key with: polkadot key generate-node-key --file <YOUR_PATH_TO_NODE_KEY>
```

2. Add an explicit parameters for nodes that do want to change their
network despite the warnings or if they run the node for the first time.
`--unsafe-force-node-key-generation`

3. For `polkadot key generate-node-key` add two new mutually exclusive
parameters `base_path` and `default_base_path` to help with the key
generation in the same path the polkadot main command would expect it.
 
4. Modify the installation scripts to auto-generate a key in default
path if one was not present already there, this should help with making
the executable work out of the box after an instalation.

## Notes

Nodes that do not have already the key persisted will fail to start
after this change, however I do consider that better than the current
situation where they start but they silently hide that they might not be
properly connected to their peers.

## TODO
- [x] Make sure only nodes that are authorities on producation chains
will be affected by this restrictions.
- [x] Proper PRDOC, to make sure node operators are aware this is
coming.

1. The `CustomFmtContext::ContextWithFormatFields` enum arm isn't
actually used and thus we don't need the enum anymore.

2. We don't do anything with most of the normalized metadata that's
created by calling `event.normalized_metadata();` - the `target` we can
get from `event.metadata.target()` and level we can get from
`event.metadata.level()` - let's just call them direct to simplify
things. (`event.metadata()` is just a field call under the hood)

Changelog: No functional changes, might run a tad faster with lots of
logging turned on.

Small adjustments which should make understanding what is going on much

Initialization is a bit messy, the very least we should do is adding

This can cause issues when the benchmarked code has complex lifetime
requirements.

This PR updates the existing macro by injecting the recording parameter
and invoking the start / stop method around the benchmarked block
instead of returning a closure

One other added benefit is that you can write this kind of code now as
well:

{ v = func.call(); }
dbg!(v); // or assert something on v

Fix some broken legacy definitions of pallet_contracts_uapi storage host
functions

Cumulus test-parachain node and test runtime were still using relay
chain consensus and 12s blocktimes. With async backing around the corner
on the major chains we should switch our tests too.

Also needed to nicely test the changes coming to collators in #3168.

### Changes Overview
- Followed the [migration
guide](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/maintain-guides-async-backing)
for async backing for the cumulus-test-runtime
- Adjusted the cumulus-test-service to use the correct import-queue,
lookahead collator etc.
- The block validation function now uses the Aura Ext Executor so that
the seal of the block is validated
- Previous point requires that we seal block before calling into
`validate_block`, I introduced a helper function for that
- Test client adjusted to provide a slot to the relay chain proof and
the aura pre-digest

This PR ensures that the transaction API generates an `Invalid` events
for transaction bytes that fail to decode.

The spec mentioned the `Invalid` event at the jsonrpc error section,
however this spec PR makes things clearer:
- https://github.com/paritytech/json-rpc-interface-spec/pull/146

While at it have discovered an inconsistency with the generated events.
The drop event from the transaction pool was incorrectly mapped to the
`invalid` event.

Added tests for the API stabilize the API soon:

This PR brings the fix
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/13396 to polkadot-sdk.

In the past, due to insufficient inbound slot count on polkadot &
kusama, this fix led to low peer count. The situation has improved since
then after changing the default ratio between `--in-peers` &
`--out-peers`.

Nevertheless, it's expected that the reported total peer count with this
fix is going to be lower than without it. This should be seen as the
correct number of working connections reported, as opposed to also
reporting already closed connections, and not as lower count of working
connections with peers.

This PR also removes the peer eviction mechanism, as closed substream
detection is a more granular way of detecting peers that stopped syncing
with us.

The burn-in has been already performed as part of testing these changes
in https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3426.

This is a tiny PR to increase the time a peer remains banned.

A peer is banned when the reputation drops below a threshold.
With every second, the peer reputation is exponentially decayed towards
zero.

For the previous setup:
- decaying to zero from (i32::MAX or i32::MIN) would take 948 seconds
(15mins 48seconds)
- from i32::MIN to escaping the banned threshold would take 10 seconds
This means we are decaying reputation a bit too aggressive and
misbehaving peers can misbehave again in 10 seconds.
Another side effect of this is that we have encountered multiple
warnings caused by a few misbehaving peers.

In the new setup:
- decaying to zero from (i32::MAX or i32::MIN) would take 3544 seconds
(59 minutes)
- from i32::MIN to escaping the banned threshold would take ~69 seconds

This is a followup of:
- https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4000.

### Testing Done
- Created a misbehaving client with
[subp2p-explorer](https://github.com/lexnv/subp2p-explorer), the client
is banned for approx 69seconds until it is allowed to connect again.

# Description
- What does this PR do?
1. Upgrades `trie-db`'s version to the latest release. This release
includes, among others, an implementation of `DoubleEndedIterator` for
the `TrieDB` struct, allowing to iterate both backwards and forwards
within the leaves of a trie.
2. Upgrades `trie-bench` to `0.39.0` for compatibility.
3. Upgrades `criterion` to `0.5.1` for compatibility.
- Why are these changes needed?
Besides keeping up with the upgrade of `trie-db`, this specifically adds
the functionality of iterating back on the leafs of a trie, with
`sp-trie`. In a project we're currently working on, this comes very
handy to verify a Merkle proof that is the response to a challenge. The
challenge is a random hash that (most likely) will not be an existing
leaf in the trie. So the challenged user, has to provide a Merkle proof
of the previous and next existing leafs in the trie, that surround the
random challenged hash.

Without having DoubleEnded iterators, we're forced to iterate until we
find the first existing leaf, like so:
```rust
        // ************* VERIFIER (RUNTIME) *************
        // Verify proof. This generates a partial trie based on the proof and
        // checks that the root hash matches the `expected_root`.
        let (memdb, root) = proof.to_memory_db(Some(&root)).unwrap();
        let trie = TrieDBBuilder::<LayoutV1<RefHasher>>::new(&memdb, &root).build();

        // Print all leaf node keys and values.
        println!("\nPrinting leaf nodes of partial tree...");
        for key in trie.key_iter().unwrap() {
            if key.is_ok() {
                println!("Leaf node key: {:?}", key.clone().unwrap());

                let val = trie.get(&key.unwrap());

                if val.is_ok() {
                    println!("Leaf node value: {:?}", val.unwrap());
                } else {
                    println!("Leaf node value: None");
                }
            }
        }

        println!("RECONSTRUCTED TRIE {:#?}", trie);

        // Create an iterator over the leaf nodes.
        let mut iter = trie.iter().unwrap();

        // First element with a value should be the previous existing leaf to the challenged hash.
        let mut prev_key = None;
        for element in &mut iter {
            if element.is_ok() {
                let (key, _) = element.unwrap();
                prev_key = Some(key);
                break;
            }
        }
        assert!(prev_key.is_some());

        // Since hashes are `Vec<u8>` ordered in big-endian, we can compare them directly.
        assert!(prev_key.unwrap() <= challenge_hash.to_vec());

        // The next element should exist (meaning there is no other existing leaf between the
        // previous and next leaf) and it should be greater than the challenged hash.
        let next_key = iter.next().unwrap().unwrap().0;
        assert!(next_key >= challenge_hash.to_vec());
```

With DoubleEnded iterators, we can avoid that, like this:
```rust
        // ************* VERIFIER (RUNTIME) *************
        // Verify proof. This generates a partial trie based on the proof and
        // checks that the root hash matches the `expected_root`.
        let (memdb, root) = proof.to_memory_db(Some(&root)).unwrap();
        let trie = TrieDBBuilder::<LayoutV1<RefHasher>>::new(&memdb, &root).build();

        // Print all leaf node keys and values.
        println!("\nPrinting leaf nodes of partial tree...");
        for key in trie.key_iter().unwrap() {
            if key.is_ok() {
                println!("Leaf node key: {:?}", key.clone().unwrap());

                let val = trie.get(&key.unwrap());

                if val.is_ok() {
                    println!("Leaf node value: {:?}", val.unwrap());
                } else {
                    println!("Leaf node value: None");
                }
            }
        }

        // println!("RECONSTRUCTED TRIE {:#?}", trie);
        println!("\nChallenged key: {:?}", challenge_hash);

        // Create an iterator over the leaf nodes.
        let mut double_ended_iter = trie.into_double_ended_iter().unwrap();

        // First element with a value should be the previous existing leaf to the challenged hash.
        double_ended_iter.seek(&challenge_hash.to_vec()).unwrap();
        let next_key = double_ended_iter.next_back().unwrap().unwrap().0;
        let prev_key = double_ended_iter.next_back().unwrap().unwrap().0;

        // Since hashes are `Vec<u8>` ordered in big-endian, we can compare them directly.
        println!("Prev key: {:?}", prev_key);
        assert!(prev_key <= challenge_hash.to_vec());

        println!("Next key: {:?}", next_key);
        assert!(next_key >= challenge_hash.to_vec());
```
- How were these changes implemented and what do they affect?
All that is needed for this functionality to be exposed is changing the
version number of `trie-db` in all the `Cargo.toml`s applicable, and
re-exporting some additional structs from `trie-db` in `sp-trie`.

Update the Contracts API to use `WeightMeter`, as it simplifies the code
and makes it easier to reason about, rather than taking a mutable weight
or returning a tuple with the weight consumed

closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3894

Allows Nomination Pool configuration to be set by a custom origin
instead of root.

In runtimes, we would set this to be `StakingAdmin`, same as for
pallet-staking.

During validation, `SkipCheckIfFeeless` should check if the call is
`feeless` and delegate to the wrapped extension if not.

Closes  https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3737
