Also fixed passed on core numbers. Bulk needs offset subtracted.

Addressed comments from
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2262

Also added tests to cover the new cases:
- Test that assignments are served correctly. E.g. two equal assignments
will be served as ABABAB
- Have a test that checks that core is shared fairly, even in case of
`ratio` not being divisible by `step`

for acknowleding that on-demand assignment provider no longer has a
predetermined number of cores.

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

Implemented bulk assigner tests covering all invariants thought of thus
far.

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.

This was discovered during a debugging session, and it only served to
mask the underlying error, which was not great.

# Description

We would like to add our bootnodes to the following parachains:

Westend: Westmint, Bridgehub

Kusama: Statemine, Bridgehub

Polkadot: Statemint, Bridgehub, Collectives

Thank you.

One for local networks with `fast-runtime` feature activated (1 minute
sessions) and one without the feature activated that will be the default
that runs with 1 hour long sessions.

This PR changes the registration order of the `MessageQueue` pallet so
that it is registered last.

This is necessary so that the
[on_initialize](https://github.com/Snowfork/snowbridge/blob/df8d5da82e517a65fb0858a4f2ead533290336b5/parachain/pallets/outbound-queue/src/lib.rs#L267)
hooks for Snowbridge can run before `MessageQueue` delivers messages
using its own `on_initialize`.

Generally, I think this is preferable regardless of Snowbridge's
particular requirements. Other pallets may want to do housekeeping
before MessageQueue starts delivering messages.

I'm hoping this PR, if accepted, can be included in the same release as
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1246. As otherwise,
changing the order of pallet registration is an ABI-breaking change.

PalletInfo fields were private, preventing a user from actually using
the QueryPallet instruction in a meaningful way since they couldn't read
the received data.

This PR contains some fixes and cleanups for parachain nodes:

1. When using async backing, node no longer complains about being unable
to reach the prospective-parachain subsystem.
2. Parachain warp sync now informs users that the finalized para block
has been retrieved.
```
2023-11-08 13:24:42 [Parachain] 🎉 Received finalized parachain header #5747719 (0xa0aa…674b) from the relay chain.
```
3. When a user supplied an invalid `--relay-chain-rpc-url`, we were
crashing with a very verbose message. Removed the `expect` and improved
the error message.
```
2023-11-08 13:57:56 [Parachain] No valid RPC url found. Stopping RPC worker.
2023-11-08 13:57:56 [Parachain] Essential task `relay-chain-rpc-worker` failed. Shutting down service.
Error: Service(Application(WorkerCommunicationError("RPC worker channel closed. This can hint and connectivity issues with the supplied RPC endpoints. Message: oneshot canceled")))
```

Some legacy tests were mistakenly merged in #1256 for `emulated-integration-tests-common` crate.
This PR fixes the function name `build_genesis_storage` (no need to use `legacy` suffix, even though the genesis is built from `RuntimeGenesisConfig`).

Genesis building in runtime may involve calling some custom host
functions. This PR allows to pass `HostFunctions` into the `ChainSpec`
struct, which in turn are passed to `WasmExecutor`. The `ChainSpec` now
has extended host functions type parameter:
```
pub struct ChainSpec<G, E = NoExtension, EHF = ()>
```
which will be combined with the default set
(`sp_io::SubstrateHostFunctions`) in an instance of `WasmExecutor` used
to build the genesis config.

Fix for #2188

Closes:
- #1383 
- Declared chains can be now be imported and reused in a different
crate.
- Chain declaration are now generic over a generic type `N` (the
Network)
- #1389
- Solved #1383, chains and networks declarations can be restructure to
avoid having to compile all chains when running integrations tests where
are not needed.
- Chains are now declared on its own crate (removed from
`integration-tests-common`)
- Networks are now declared on its own crate (removed from
`integration-tests-common`)
    - Integration tests will import only the relevant Network crate
- `integration-tests-common` is renamed to
`emulated-integration-tests-common`

All this is necessary to be able to implement what is described here:

The trie cache implementation was ignoring the `storage_root` when
setting up the value cache. The problem with this is that the value
cache works using `storage_keys` and these keys are not unique across
different tries. A block can actually have different tries (main trie
and multiple child tries). This pull request fixes the issue by not
ignoring the `storage_root` and returning an unique `value_cache` per
`storage_root`. It also adds a test for the seen bug and improves
documentation that this doesn't happen again.

GitHub has a setting that requires manual click for executing GHA on the
branch, for the first-time contributors:
https://docs.github.com/en/actions/managing-workflow-runs/approving-workflow-runs-from-public-forks.

After this PR, gitspiegel will respect that setting. So, for PRs from
first-time contributors, gitspiegel won't do mirroring until the button
in PR is clicked. More info:
https://github.com/paritytech/gitspiegel/issues/169

Changes:
- Adds a new call `remove_key` to the sudo pallet to permanently remove
the sudo key.
- Remove some clones and general maintenance

fixes #2196

+ Remove random insert.

`bridge-hub-westend-runtime` was added to cumulus/parachains, but wasn't
hooked up to xcm-emulator to run tests against it.

This commit addresses that ^.

Added a proc macro to be able to write XCMs using the builder pattern.
This means we go from having to do this:

```rust
let message: Xcm<()> = Xcm(vec![
  WithdrawAsset(assets),
  BuyExecution { fees: asset, weight_limit: Unlimited },
  DepositAsset { assets, beneficiary },
]);
```

to this:

```rust
let message: Xcm<()> = Xcm::builder()
  .withdraw_asset(assets)
  .buy_execution(asset, Unlimited),
  .deposit_asset(assets, beneficiary)
  .build();
```

When running with `--relay-chain-rpc-url` we received multiple reports
of high traffic that disappears when `--in-peers-light 0` is set. Indeed
it does not make much sense for light clients to connect to the minimal
node since it is not running the block announce protocol and the
request/response protocol for light clients.

This is intended to alleviate the traffic issues for now.
