 we want
to safely increase the execute_workers_max_num gradually from chain to
chain and assess if there are any negative impacts.

This PR performs the necessary plumbing to be able to increase it based
on the chain id, it increase the number of execution workers from 2 to 4
on test network but lives kusama and polkadot unchanged until we gather
more data.

Completes the removal of `try-runtime-cli` logic from `polkadot-sdk`.

This MR contains two major changes and some maintenance cleanup.  

## 1. Free Standing Pallet Benchmark Runner

Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3045, depends
on your runtime exposing the `GenesisBuilderApi` (like
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1492).

Introduces a new binary crate: `frame-omni-bencher`.  
It allows to directly benchmark a WASM blob - without needing a node or
chain spec.

This makes it much easier to generate pallet weights and should allow us
to remove bloaty code from the node.
It should work for all FRAME runtimes that dont use 3rd party host calls
or non `BlakeTwo256` block hashing (basically all polkadot parachains
should work).

It is 100% backwards compatible with the old CLI args, when the `v1`
compatibility command is used. This is done to allow for forwards
compatible addition of new commands.

### Example (full example in the Rust docs)

Installing the CLI:
```sh
cargo install --locked --path substrate/utils/frame/omni-bencher
frame-omni-bencher --help
```

Building the Westend runtime:
```sh
cargo build -p westend-runtime --release --features runtime-benchmarks
```

Benchmarking the runtime:
```sh
frame-omni-bencher v1 benchmark pallet --runtime target/release/wbuild/westend-runtime/westend_runtime.compact.compressed.wasm --all
```

## 2. Building the Benchmark Genesis State in the Runtime

Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2664

This adds `--runtime` and `--genesis-builder=none|runtime|spec`
arguments to the `benchmark pallet` command to make it possible to
generate the genesis storage by the runtime. This can be used with both
the node and the freestanding benchmark runners. It utilizes the new
`GenesisBuilder` RA and depends on having
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3412

 deployed.

## 3. Simpler args for `PalletCmd::run`

You can do three things here to integrate the changes into your node:
- nothing: old code keeps working as before but emits a deprecated
warning
- delete: remove the pallet benchmarking code from your node and use the
omni-bencher instead
- patch: apply the patch below and keep using as currently. This emits a
deprecated warning at runtime, since it uses the old way to generate a
genesis state, but is the smallest change.

```patch
runner.sync_run(|config| cmd
-    .run::<HashingFor<Block>, ReclaimHostFunctions>(config)
+    .run_with_spec::<HashingFor<Block>, ReclaimHostFunctions>(Some(config.chain_spec))
)
```

## 4. Maintenance Change
- `pallet-nis` get a `BenchmarkSetup` config item to prepare its
counterparty asset.
- Add percent progress print when running benchmarks.
- Dont immediately exit on benchmark error but try to run as many as
possible and print errors last.

Preparation for https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2664



Changes:
- Only require `Hash` instead of `Block` for the benchmarking
- Refactor DB types to do the same

## Integration

This breaking change can easily be integrated into your node via:  
```patch
- cmd.run::<Block, ()>(config)
+ cmd.run::<HashingFor<Block>, ()>(config)
```

Status: waiting for CI checks

After some conversations around the topic of launching a community
staging network ( [forum post
1](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/a-new-test-network-for-polkadot/4325),
[forum post
2](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/the-new-polkadot-community-testnet/4956)
). And Erin having introduced the community testnet in the [last episode
of AAG](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzJEGVG78_E&t=1612s

).

I would like to include the `paseo` options as one of the chains
available for launching using the polkadot node.

Note that the chain spec implementation is not yet included at this
stage.

UPDATE:

Merged master with rebase enabled and introduced quite some noise in
this PR.
Relevant changes are in:
- `polkadot/node/service/chain-specs/paseo.json`
- `polkadot/node/service/src/chain_spec.rs`
- `polkadot/cli/src/command.rs`

Currently, collators and their alongside nodes spin up a full-scale
overseer running a bunch of subsystems that are not needed if the node
is not a validator. That was considered to be harmless; however, we've
got problems with unused subsystems getting stalled for a reason not
currently known, resulting in the overseer exiting and bringing down the
whole node.

This PR aims to only run needed subsystems on such nodes, replacing the
rest with `DummySubsystem`.

It also enables collator-optimized availability recovery subsystem
implementation.

Partially solves #1730.

This removes the need to unnecessarily provide a very specific data
structure `DatabaseSource` and removes huge `sc-client-db` dependency
from storage monitor. It is now possible to use storage monitor with any
path.

P.S. I still strongly dislike that it pulls `clap` dependency for such a
small feature, but many other crates do as well, so nothing special
here.

This enables the BEEFY gadget to work with `--sync warp` (GRANDPA warp

This was never used and we probably don't need it anyway.

Currently the polkadot node will backoff from block authoring if
finality starts lagging. This PR disables this mechanism on production
networks (polkadot and kusama) and adds a flags to optionally force
enabling it.

Fellowship companion:
https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/pull/65

This starts the BEEFY client by default for Polkadot nodes.

Governance/sudo call is later required to enable/start consensus.

Part of https://github.com/paritytech/parity-bridges-common/issues/2420

This pull request is removing the Kusama and Polkadot runtime crates. As
still some crates dependent on the runtime crates, this pull request is
doing some more changes.

- It removes the `hostperfcheck` CLI command. This CLI command could
compare the current node against the standard hardware by doing some
checks. Later we added the hardware benchmark feature to Substrate. This
hardware benchmark is running on every node startup and prints a warning
if the current node is too slow. This makes this CLI command a duplicate
that was also depending on the kusama runtime.

- The pull request is removing the emulated integration tests that were
requiring the Kusama or Polkadot runtime crates.

This pull request removes the Polkadot and Kusama native runtime from
the polkadot node. This brings some implications with it:

There are no more kusama/polkadot-dev chain specs available. We will
need to write some tooling in the fellowship repo to provide them
easily.

The try-runtime job for polkadot & kusama is not available anymore as we
don't have the dev chain specs anymore.

Certain benchmarking commands will also not work until we migrate them
to use a runtime api.

Some crates in utils are still depending on the polkadot/kusama native
runtime that will also need to be fixed.

Remove superflous parameter `overseer_enable_anyways` and make parachain node type more explicit (#7617)

* Remove superflous parameter `overseer_enable_anyways`

We don't need this flag, as we don't need the overseer enabled when the
node isn't a collator or validator.

* Rename `IsCollator` to `IsParachainNode`

`IsParachainNode` is more expressive and also encapsulates the state of
the parachain node being a full node. Some functionality like the
overseer needs to run always when the node runs alongside a parachain
node. The parachain node needs the overseer to e.g. recover PoVs. Other
things like candidate validation or pvf checking are only required for
when the node is running as validator.

* Move worker binaries into files in cli crate

As a final optimization I've separated out each worker binary from its own crate
into the CLI crate. Before, the worker bin shared a crate with the worker lib,
so when the binaries got recompiled so did the libs and everything transitively
depending on the libs. This commit fixes this regression that was causing
recompiles after every commit.

* Implement runtime apis for fake runtime

These runtime api implementations are only used to make the compiler
think that we have implemented all required runtime apis. They will not
be called as we switch the executor to `WasmExecutor`. In the near
future we will not require these fake implementations anymore after
Substrate has shifted away from this compile time requirement.

This brings us the advantage that the `polkadot-service` doesn't need to
depend on the runtimes for getting the `RuntimeApi` type.

It also removes around 1min of build time on my machine ;)

We consider BEEFY mature enough to run by default on all nodes

Right now, most nodes are not running it since it's opt-in using

Replace --beefy flag from CLI with --no-beefy and have BEEFY
client start by default on test networks.
