Very tiny change that helps with debugging of transactions propagation
by referring to the same type alias not only at receiving side, but also
on the sending size for symmetry

# Description

Resolves #6193

This PR introduces `ConstUint` as a replacement for existing constant
getter types like `ConstU8`, `ConstU16`, etc., providing a more flexible
and unified approach.

## Integration

This update is backward compatible, so developers can choose to adopt
`ConstUint` in new implementations or continue using the existing types
as needed.

## Review Notes

`ConstUint` is a convenient alternative to `ConstU8`, `ConstU16`, and
similar types, particularly useful for configuring `DefaultConfig` in
pallets. It enables configuring the underlying integer for a specific
type without the need to update all dependent types, offering enhanced
flexibility in type management.

Closes #2082

change send xcm to use `xcm::executor::FeeManager` to determine if the
sender should be charged.

I had to change the `FeeManager` of the penpal config to ensure the same
test behaviour as before. For the other tests, I'm using the
`FeeManager` from the `xcm::executor::FeeManager` as this one is used to
check if the fee can be waived on the charge fees method.

There is no need to verify in the `pallet-membership` benchmark that the
`MemembershipChanged` implementation works as the pallet thinks it
should work. If you for example set it to `()`, `get_prime()` will
always return `None`.

TLDR: Remove the checks of `MembershipChanged` in the benchmarks to
support any kind of implementation.

This PR adds size-limits to the fork-aware transaction pool.

**Review Notes**
- Existing
[`TrackedMap`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/58fd5ae4/substrate/client/transaction-pool/src/graph/tracked_map.rs#L33-L41)
is used in internal mempool to track the size of extrinsics:

https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/58fd5ae4/substrate/client/transaction-pool/src/graph/tracked_map.rs#L33-L41

- In this PR, I also removed the logic that kept transactions in the
`tx_mem_pool` if they were immediately dropped by the views. Initially,
I implemented this as an improvement: if there was available space in
the _mempool_ and all views dropped the transaction upon submission, the
transaction would still be retained in the _mempool_.

However, upon further consideration, I decided to remove this
functionality to reduce unnecessary complexity. Now, when all views drop
a transaction during ...

# Description

This seems to be an old artifact of the long closed
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/issues/6827 that I noticed when
working on related code earlier.

## Integration

`NetworkStarter` was removed, simply remove its usage:
```diff
-let (network, system_rpc_tx, tx_handler_controller, start_network, sync_service) =
+let (network, system_rpc_tx, tx_handler_controller, sync_service) =
    build_network(BuildNetworkParams {
...
-start_network.start_network();
```

## Review Notes

Changes are trivial, the only reason for this to not be accepted is if
it is desired to not start network automatically for whatever reason, in
which case the description of network starter needs to change.

This PR introduces usage of `build_struct_json_patch` macro in all
runtimes (also guides) within the code base.

It also fixes macro to support _field init shorthand_, and _Struct
Update_ syntax which were missing in original implementation.

Follow up of #5700 and #5813

This PR exposes additional syncing types to facilitate the development
of a custom syncing strategy based on the existing Polkadot syncing
strategy. Specifically, my goal is to isolate the state sync and chain
sync components, allowing the state to be downloaded from the P2P
network without running a full regular Substrate node. I also need to
intercept the state responses during the state sync process.

The newly exposed types are necessary to implement this custom syncing
strategy.

# Description

Implemented benchmarks for Notifications and RequestResponse protocols
with libp2p implementation. These benchmarks allow us to monitor
regressions and implement fixes before they are observed in real chain.
In the future, they can be used for targeted optimizations of litep2p
compared to libp2p.

Part of https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/5220

Next steps:
- Add benchmarks for litep2p implementation
- Optimize load to get better results
- Add benchmarks to CI to catch regressions



## Integration

Benchmarks don't affect downstream projects.

# Description

E2E tests to Polkadot/Kusama's people chains (in
https://github.com/open-web3-stack/polkadot-ecosystem-tests/pull/63)
revealed that 2 of the identity pallet's extrinsics did not emit events
in case of success:
* `pallet_identity::rename_sub`, and
* `pallet_identity::set_subs`

This PR fixes that.

## Integration

Other than 2 extrinsics emiting an event when previously they did not,
no other behavior in pallets/extrinsics was modified, so no integration
is needed.

## Review Notes

N/A

This PR changes the behavior of `json_patch::merge` function which no
longer removes any keys from the base JSON object.

fixes: #6306

This PR has small addition to the db package version. As `cargodeb`
takes the version from the `*.toml` file, this PR adds an extra flag to
the `cargodeb` command so that the version of the deb package matches
the `polkadot` node version.

Fixes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/5530

This PR introduces the removal of backing jobs that have been back
pressured for longer than `allowedAncestryLen`, as these candidates are
no longer viable.

It is reasonable to expect a result for a backing job execution within
`allowedAncestryLen` blocks. Therefore, we set the job TTL as a relay
block number and synchronize the validation host by sending activated
leaves.

This PR ensures that external addresses with different PeerIDs are not
propagated to the higher layer of the network code.

While at it, this ensures that libp2p only adds the `/p2p/peerid` part
to the discovered address if it does not contain it already.

# Description

This is a continuation of
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/5666 that finally fixes
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/5333.

This should allow developers to create custom syncing strategies or even
the whole syncing engine if they so desire. It also moved syncing engine
creation and addition of corresponding protocol outside
`build_network_advanced` method, which is something Bastian expressed as
desired in
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/5#issuecomment-1700816458

Here I replaced strategy-specific types and methods in `SyncingStrategy`
trait with generic ones. Specifically `SyncingAction` is now used by all
strategies instead of strategy-specific types with conversions.
`StrategyKey` was an enum with a fixed set of options and now replaced
with an opaque type that strategies create privately and send to upper
layers as an opaque type. Requests and responses are now handled in a
generic way regardl...

This PR fixes the `0002-validators-warp-sync` zombienet test by matching
for a specific error case.

The following PR introduced a new error for validators that don't have
public addresses available for publishing in the DHT:
- https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/6298
The log line was moved from `eprintln!("Warning: ...` in sc-cli to the
authority discovery where it is printed properly as an error.

### Overview 

Introduces similar checker struct to `CheckTraitDecls` in
`decl_runtime_apis!` - `CheckTraitImpls`. Overrides
`visit::visit_type_path` to detect usage of `Self` as a type argument
within the scope of `impl_runtime_apis!`.

**Note**: only prevents the usage of `Self` as a type argument in an
angle bracket `<>`, as it is the only use case that fails to compile.
For example, the code
[below](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/master/cumulus/parachains/runtimes/bridge-hubs/bridge-hub-westend/src/lib.rs#L1002)
compiles fine:

```rs
impl BridgeMessagesConfig<WithBridgeHubRococoMessagesInstance> for Runtime {
  fn is_relayer_rewarded(relayer: &Self::AccountId) -> bool {
	  let bench_lane_id = <Self as BridgeMessagesConfig<WithBridgeHubRococoMessagesInstance>>::bench_lane_id();
	  // ...
```

### Result

Given a block of code like this:

```rs
impl_runtime_apis! {
	impl apis::Core<Block> fo...
