The test was a bit flaky on CI. 

There was a race condition in the pov-recovery system. If the timing is
bad, it can happen that a block waits for a parent that is already
queued for import. The check if a block has children waiting happens
when we insert into the import queue. So we need to do an additional
check once we receive the import notification for the parent block.

Second issue is that `alice` was missing `--in-peers 0` and `--out-peers
0`, so alice was sometimes still fetching block via sync and the
assertion on the logs in zombienet would fail.

There is another potential issue that I saw once locally. We have a
failing pov-recovery queue that fails from time to time to check that
the retry mechanism does what it should. We now make sure that the same
candidate is never failed twice, so the tests become more predictable.

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

This PR deletes the README of the `wasm-builder` crate and moves its
docs back into the rustdoc, [as requested
here](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2217#discussion_r1406401175).

This PR adds `derive_impl` on all `frame_system` config impls for mock
runtimes. The overridden configs are maintained as of now to ensure
minimal changes.

Sets `frame_system::LastRuntimeUpgrade` after running try-runtime
migrations to better emulate real behavior.

This fixes an issue where migrations using the spec version to determine
whether to execute can incorrectly fail idempotency checks.

@s0me0ne-unkn0wn noticed this issue with the session key migration
introduced in https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2265.

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.

We're going to bridge Polkadot Bridge Hub with [Polkadot Bulletin
chain](https://github.com/zdave-parity/polkadot-bulletin-chain) soon
(and Rococo Bridge Hub with 1:1 copy of Polkadot Bulletin chain even
sooner), so we need a variant for that chain in `NetworkId`. As
suggested, I'm adding a new variant for it to the `NetworkId` (we may
have used `ByGenesis(_)`, but decision was made to have a dedicated
variant for that).

Addresses #409.

This request has been raised by multiple community members - the ability
for the nomination pool root role to configure permissionless commission
claiming:

> Would it be possible to have a claim_commission_other extrinsic for
claiming commission of nomination pools permissionless?

This PR does not quite introduce this additional call, but amends
`do_claim_commission` to check a new `claim_permission` field in the
`Commission` struct, configured by an enum:

```
enum CommissionClaimPermission {
   Permissionless,
   Account(AccountId),
}
```
This can be optionally set in a bonded pool's
`commission.claim_permission` field:

```
struct BondedPool {
   commission: {
      <snip>
      claim_permission: Option<CommissionClaimPermission<T::AccountId>>,
   },
   <snip>
}
```

This is a new field and requires a migration to add it to existing
pools. This will be `None` on pool creation, falling back to the `root`
role having sole access to claim commission if it is not set; this is
the behaviour as it is today. Once set, the field _can_ be set to `None`
again.

#### Changes
- [x] Add `commision.claim_permission` field.
- [x] Add `can_claim_commission` and amend `do_claim_commission`.
- [x] Add `set_commission_claim_permission` call.
- [x] Test to cover new configs and call.
- [x] Add and amend benchmarks.
- [x] Generate new weights + slot into call
`set_commission_claim_permission`.
- [x] Add migration to introduce `commission.claim_permission`, bump
storage version.
- [x] Update Westend weights.
- [x] Migration working.

README instructions fixes to be compatible with the `polkadot-prepare`
and `polkadot-execute` binary split.

Incorporate suggestion from release team to get this workflow working.

edit: worked on this test GH release:
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/releases/tag/liam-debug-ghw.
let's try it.

The `chill_other` call is the only staking call that explicitly requires
`controller` in its signature. This PR changes the controller arg to be
the stash instead, with `StakingLedger` then fetching the controller
from storage.

This is not a breaking change per se - the call types do not change, but
is noteworthy as UIs will now want to pass the stash account into
`chill_other` calls, & metadata will reflect this.

Note: This is very low impact. `chill_other` has [hardly ever been
used](https://polkadot.subscan.io/extrinsic?address=&module=staking&call=chill_other&result=all&signedChecked=signed%20only&startDate=&endDate=&startBlock=&timeType=date&version=9431&endBlock=)
on Polkadot - notwithstanding the one called 11 days ago at block
18177457 that was a part of test I did, the last call was made 493 days
ago. Only 2 calls have ever been successful.

Just adds more tests.

Our executor currently only supports the WASM MVP feature set, however
nowadays when compiling WASM the Rust compiler has more features enabled
by default.

We do set the `-C target-cpu=mvp` flag to make sure that *our* code gets
compiled in a way that is compatible with our executor, however this
doesn't affect Rust's standard library crates (`std`, `core` and
`alloc`) which are by default precompiled and still can make use of
these extra features.

So in this PR we force the compiler to also compile the standard library
crates for us to make sure that they also only use the MVP features.

I've added the `WASM_BUILD_STD` environment variable which can be used
to disable this behavior if set to `0`.

Unfortunately this *will* slow down the compile times when building
runtimes, but there isn't much that we can do about that.

This PR decomissions
[`PR-Custom-Review`](https://github.com/paritytech/pr-custom-review) in
replacement for
[`Review-bot`](https://github.com/paritytech/review-bot).

**Overview:**
Adding an extra malus variant focusing on disputing finalized blocks. It
will:
- wrap around approval-voting
- listen to `OverseerSignal::BlockFinalized` and when encountered start
a dispute for the `dispute_offset`th ancestor
- simply pass through all other messages and signals

Add zombienet tests testing various edgecases:
- disputing freshly finalized blocks
- disputing stale finalized blocks
- disputing eagerly pruned finalized blocks (might be separate PR)

**TODO:**
- [x] Register new malus variant
- [x] Simple pass through wrapper (approval-voting)
- [x] Simple network definition
- [x] Listen to block finalizations
- [x] Fetch ancestor hash
- [x] Fetch session index
- [x] Fetch candidate
- [x] Construct and send dispute message
- [x] zndsl test 1 checking that disputes on fresh finalizations resolve
valid Closes #1365
- [x] zndsl test 2 checking that disputes for too old finalized blocks
are not possible Closes #1364
- [ ] zndsl test 3 checking that disputes for candidates with eagerly
pruned relay parent state are handled correctly #1359 (deferred to a
separate PR)
- [x] Unit tests for new malus variant (testing cli etc)
- [x] Clean/streamline error handling
- [ ] ~~Ensure it tests properly on session boundaries~~

## Overview

This PR aligns the `spec_version` formatting to the [recent
changes](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/pull/26/files#diff-efa4caeb17487ecb13d8f5eb7863c3241d84afa2e73fbf25909a2ca89df0f362R142)
made for the Polkadot/Kusama runtimes.

It also backports the latest version `v1.4.0` bumps as `1_004_000`.

## Details

During the switch from `v0.9` to `v1.x`, the format of the
`spec_version` was modified from: `(M)m_ppp` for a runtime considered on
version `M.m.pp`. For instance `0.9.42` had a `spec_version` of `9420`.

With the transition to `v1.x`, the format was changed to a bigger number
(still `u32`) formatted as `MM_mm_ppp` where `1.2.3` would be stored as
`01_02_003`.

This PR aligns the format with that has been introduced in the
fellowship repo: `MMM_mmm_ppp`.

This PR removes some `ChainSpec` types which are not necessary
(left-overs from #1256). Currently `ChainSpec` does not have to be
generic over the specific `RuntimeGenesisConfig`, it is enough to use
single type for all:

The last issue blocking the removal of the Polkadot and Kusama system
parachains from the repo in #1737 is the dependency on the runtime code
through the RuntimeApi in `polkadot-parachain`.

This PR introduces two fake runtimes to satisfy the build requirements
and changes the `new_partial` function to make it not be generic over
the runtimes.
The reason for the second runtime is the different Aura keys used in
Polkadot Asset Hub, as the impl for AuraApi depends on this type.
If this changes the `RuntimeApi` generic could be removed completely
from all functions in `services.rs` and and generic type parameters in
`services.rs` and specified as a concrete type to TFullClient`.

The FastUnstake pallet tests were previously directly modifying storage
items in the pallet-staking to alter exposure. However, due to the
introduction of the [new paged exposure
feature](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1189) these
tests were not testing against correct storage items. This issue
resulted in a bug that I didn't catch, which has been addressed in [this
fix](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2369).

This PR introduces a modification to how the pallet-fast-unstake handles
exposure. It now utilizes `pallet-staking::EraInfo` to set or mutate
Exposures.

Use non-zero weight limit in benchmarking `pallet_xcm::execute()` so the
given XCM actually executes.

Printing the `unpin_worker_sender` included the entire stacktrace and
that is a little bit too verbose.

After #2001 the `fork_choice` strategy may remain uninitialized in the
block import pipeline which uses relay-chain verifier.
Refer to

for some further discussion.

DMP queue migration is complete and the pallet should be removed to fix
the check runtime upgrade CI.

I noticed that this test broke at some point. The parachain nodes should
only acquire their blocks from the relay chain. But they were connecting
to their peers and started fetching blocks from there.

In this test I now take additional measures so we check that each nodes
really uses pov-recovery to get the blocks.

Amends some staking pallet docs, and deprecation comment, to adjust to
the latest controller deprecation state.

Note, do we need the `README.md` file, which is a duplicate of the
pallet docs? Docs would be easier to maintain, and less ambiguity for
devs to refer to, if we had one source of truth in the generated pallet
docs.
