There are some accounts that do not have a consumer ref while having a
reserve.
This adds a fail-safe mechanism to trigger in the case that
`does_consume` is true, but the assumption of `consumer>0` is not.

This should prevent those accounts from loosing balance and the TI from
getting messed up even more, but is not an "ideal" fix. TBH an ideal fix
is not possible, since on-chain data is in an invalid state.

The solochain template links to parachain template instead of solochain.

Should help us to understand more what's happening between individual
runs and possibly adjust the number of runs

Makes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4035 easier to
review

Currently, PVFs are re-prepared if any execution environment parameter
changes. As we've recently seen on Kusama and Polkadot, that may lead to
a severe finality lag because every validator has to re-prepare every
PVF. That cannot be avoided altogether; however, we could cease
re-preparing PVFs when a change in the execution environment can't lead
to a change in the artifact itself. For example, it's clear that
changing the execution timeout cannot affect the artifact.

In this PR, I'm introducing a separate hash for the subset of execution
environment parameters that changes only if a preparation-related
parameter changes. It introduces some minor code duplication, but
without that, the scope of changes would be much bigger.

TODO:
- [x] Add a test to ensure the artifact is not re-prepared if
non-preparation-related parameter is changed
- [x] Add a test to ensure the artifact is re-prepared if a
preparation-related parameter is changed
- [x] Add comments, warnings, and, possibly, a test to ensure a new
parameter ever added to the executor environment parameters will be
evaluated by the author of changes with respect to its artifact
preparation impact and added to the new hash preimage if needed.

Closes #4132

... a few sessions too late :(, this already happened on polkadot, so as
of now there are no known relay-chains without async backing enabled in
runtime, but let's fix it in case someone else wants to repeat our
steps.

It seems that `review-trigger` is not uploading the artifact that is
used by `review-bot`, so I changed the PR-Number to be obtained by the
previous event that triggered this action.

I also took the liberty to replace `tibdex/github-app-token` for
`actions/create-github-app-token` which is GitHub's official app.

This PR:
- introduces `AllowHrmpNotificationsFromRelayChain` barrier for allowing
HRMP notifications just from the relay chain (to fulfill safety
assumptions -
[see](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/master/polkadot/xcm/src/v4/mod.rs#L532))
- sets it up for all testnet SP parachains

Continuation of: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3696

Trying to split parts of the
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1903 into smaller PRs

For https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1903 it would help
if `verify_with_validator_set()` returned the list of valid
authority-signatures pairs, since after the verification we need to send
them in the equivocation proof.

Seems like Externalities already [return a
vector](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/ffbce2a817ec2e7c8b7ce49f7ed6794584f19667/substrate/primitives/externalities/src/lib.rs#L86

),
so calling `to_vec` on a vector just results in an unneeded copying.

Change `transfer_assets_using_type()` to not assume `DepositAssets` as
the intended use of the assets on the destination.

Instead provides the caller with the ability to specify custom XCM that
be executed on `dest` chain as the last step of the transfer, thus
allowing custom usecases for the transferred assets. E.g. some are
used/swapped/etc there, while some are sent further to yet another
chain.

Note: this is a follow-up on
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3695, bringing in an API
change for `transfer_assets_using_type()`. This is ok as the previous
version has not been yet released. Thus, its first release will include
the new API proposed by this PR.

This allows usecases such as:
https://forum.polkadot.network/t/managing-sas-on-multiple-reserve-chains-for-same-asset/7538/4

BTW: all this pallet-xcm asset transfers code will be massively reduced
once we have https://github.com/paritytech/xcm-format/pull/54

 we want

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

In #1340 one of the storage types was changed from `Candidates` to
`CandidateList`. Since the actual key includes the hash of this value,
all of the candidates stored here are (a) "missing" and (b) unable to
unreserve their candidacy bond.

This migration kills the storage values and refunds the deposit held for
each candidate.

Ensure outbound XCMs are decodable with limits + add `EnsureDecodableXcm` router (for testing purposes) (#4186)

This PR:
- adds `EnsureDecodableXcm` (testing) router that attempts to *encode*
and *decode* passed XCM `message` to ensure that the receiving side will
be able to decode, at least with the same XCM version.
- fixes `pallet_xcm` / `pallet_xcm_benchmarks` assets data generation

Relates to investigation of
https://substrate.stackexchange.com/questions/11288 and missing fix
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2129 which did not get
into the fellows 1.1.X release.

## Questions/TODOs

- [x] fix XCM benchmarks, which produces undecodable data - new router
catched at least two cases
  - `BoundedVec exceeds its limit`
  - `Fungible asset of zero amount is not allowed`  
- [x] do we need to add `sort` to the `prepend_with` as we did for
reanchor [here](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2129)?
@serban300 (**created separate/follow-up PR**:
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4235)
- [x] We added decoding check to `XcmpQueue` -> `validate_xcm_nesting`,
why not to added to the `ParentAsUmp` or `ChildParachainRouter`?
@franciscoaguirre (**created separate/follow-up PR**:

- [ ] `SendController::send_blob` replace `VersionedXcm::<()>::decode(`
with `VersionedXcm::<()>::decode_with_depth_limit(MAX_XCM_DECODE_DEPTH,
data)` ?

Weights::v3 also accounts for PoV weight so we no longer need the
SafeCallFilter. All calls are allowed as long as they "fit in the
block".

Basically combines all the recommended calls into one
`build_using_defaults()` call or `init_with_defaults()` when there are
some custom changes required.

We cannot lock to a specific version of `psvm`, because we will need to
keep it up-to-date - each release currently requires a change in `psvm`
such as [this one](https://github.com/paritytech/psvm/pull/2/files).

There is no `stable` branch in `psvm` repo or anything so using the
default branch.

This is the first PR in preparation for
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/454.

## Follow ups:
- https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3904.
- https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3905.

Overall changes are documented here (lot more visual 😍):

[Maybe followup](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/4217)
with migration of storage item `VirtualStakers` as a bool or enum in
`Ledger`.

## Context
We want to achieve a way for a user (`Delegator`) to delegate their
funds to another account (`Agent`). Delegate implies the funds are
locked in delegator account itself. Agent can act on behalf of delegator
to stake directly on Staking pallet.

The delegation feature is added to Staking via another pallet
`delegated-staking` worked on
[here](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3904).

## Introduces:
### StakingUnchecked Trait
As the name implies, this trait allows unchecked (non-locked) mutation
of staking ledger. These apis are only meant to be used by other pallets
in the runtime and should not be exposed directly to user code path.
Also related: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3888.

### Virtual Bond
Allows other pallets to stake via staking pallet while managing the
locks on these accounts themselves. Introduces another storage
`VirtualStakers` that whitelist these accounts.

We also restrict virtual stakers to set reward account as themselves.
Since the account has no locks, we cannot support compounding of
rewards. Conservatively, we require them to set a separate account
different from the staker. Since these are code managed, it should be
easy for another pallet to redistribute reward and rebond them.

### Slashes
Since there is no actual lock maintained by staking-pallet for virtual
stakers, this pallet does not apply any slashes. It is then important
for pallets managing virtual stakers to listen to slashing events and
apply necessary slashes.
