- #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`

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:

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

`bridge-hub-westend-runtime` was added to cumulus/parachains, but wasn't

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.

### Problem
Quoting from the above issue:

> When adding a pallet to chain after genesis we currently don't set the
StorageVersion. So, when calling on_chain_storage_version it returns 0
while the pallet is maybe already at storage version 9 when it was added
to the chain. This could lead to issues when running migrations.

### Solution

- Create a new trait `BeforeAllRuntimeMigrations` with a single method
`fn before_all_runtime_migrations() -> Weight` trait with a noop default
implementation
- Modify `Executive` to call
`BeforeAllRuntimeMigrations::before_all_runtime_migrations` for all
pallets before running any other hooks
- Implement `BeforeAllRuntimeMigrations` in the pallet proc macro to
initialize the on-chain version to the current pallet version if the
pallet has no storage set (indicating it has been recently added to the
runtime and needs to have its version initialised).

### Other changes in this PR

- Abstracted repeated boilerplate to access the `pallet_name` in the
pallet expand proc macro.

### FAQ

#### Why create a new hook instead of adding this logic to the pallet
`pre_upgrade`?

`Executive` currently runs `COnRuntimeUpgrade` (custom migrations)
before `AllPalletsWithSystem` migrations. We need versions to be
initialized before the `COnRuntimeUpgrade` migrations are run, because
`COnRuntimeUpgrade` migrations may use the on-chain version for critical
logic. e.g. `VersionedRuntimeUpgrade` uses it to decide whether or not
to execute.

We cannot reorder `COnRuntimeUpgrade` and `AllPalletsWithSystem` so
`AllPalletsWithSystem` runs first, because `AllPalletsWithSystem` have
some logic in their `post_upgrade` hooks to verify that the on-chain
version and current pallet version match. A common use case of
`COnRuntimeUpgrade` migrations is to perform a migration which will
result in the versions matching, so if they were reordered these
`post_upgrade` checks would fail.

#### Why init the on-chain version for pallets without a current storage
version?

We must init the on-chain version for pallets even if they don't have a
defined storage version so if there is a future version bump, the
on-chain version is not automatically set to that new version without a
proper migration.

e.g. bad scenario:

1. A pallet with no 'current version' is added to the runtime
2. Later, the pallet is upgraded with the 'current version' getting set
to 1 and a migration is added to Executive Migrations to migrate the
storage from 0 to 1
    a. Runtime upgrade occurs
    b. `before_all` hook initializes the on-chain version to 1
c. `on_runtime_upgrade` of the migration executes, and sees the on-chain
version is already 1 therefore think storage is already migrated and
does not execute the storage migration
Now, on-chain version is 1 but storage is still at version 0.

By always initializing the on-chain version when the pallet is added to
the runtime we avoid that scenario.

@Kianenigma



Add infrastructure needed to have a Pallet::decode_entire_state(), which
makes sure all "typed" storage items defined in the pallet are
decode-able.

This is not enforced in any way at the moment. Teams who wish to
integrate/use this in the try-runtime feature flag should add
frame_support::storage::migration::EnsureStateDecodes as the LAST ITEM
of the runtime's custom migrations, and pass it to frame-executive. This
will make it usable in try-runtime on-runtime-upgrade.

This now catches cases like
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1969:
```pre
ERROR runtime::executive] failed to decode the value at key: Failed to decode value at key: 0x94eadf0156a8ad5156507773d0471e4ab8ebad86f546c7e0b135a4212aace339.

availability-distribution subsystem is not sending availability-recovery

**_PR migrated from https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/pull/6782_** 

This PR will upgrade the network protocol to version 3 -> VStaging which
will later be renamed to V3. This version introduces a new kind of
assignment certificate that will be used for tranche0 assignments.
Instead of issuing/importing one tranche0 assignment per candidate,
there will be just one certificate per relay chain block per validator.
However, we will not be sending out the new assignment certificates,
yet. So everything should work exactly as before. Once the majority of
the validators have been upgraded to the new protocol version we will
enable the new certificates (starting at a specific relay chain block)
with a new client update.

> ensure through proper configuration that the new byte-based deposit is
always lower than whatever is reserved now

Not sure this is needed anymore. If the new deposits are higher than
what is currently on chain and users don't have enough funds to reserve
what is needed, the extrinisc fails and they're basically grandfathered
and frozen until they add more funds and/or make a change to their
identity. This behavior seems fine to me. Original idea
[here](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1661#issuecomment-1779606319).

> add an extrinsic to rejig deposits to account for the change above

The `BlockBuilderProvider` was a trait that was defined in
`sc-block-builder`. The trait was implemented for `Client`. This
basically meant that you needed to import `sc-block-builder` any way to
have access to the block builder. So, this trait was not providing any
real value. This pull request is removing the said trait. Instead of the
trait it introduces a builder for creating a `BlockBuilder`. The builder
currently has the quite fabulous name `BlockBuilderBuilder` (I'm open to
any better name 😅

). The rest of the pull request is about
replacing the old trait with the new builder.

# Downstream code changes

If you used `new_block` or `new_block_at` before you now need to switch
it over to the new `BlockBuilderBuilder` pattern:

```rust
// `new` requires a type that implements `CallApiAt`. 
let mut block_builder = BlockBuilderBuilder::new(client)
                // Then you need to specify the hash of the parent block the block will be build on top of
		.on_parent_block(at)
                // The block builder also needs the block number of the parent block. 
                // Here it is fetched from the given `client` using the `HeaderBackend`
                // However, there also exists `with_parent_block_number` for directly passing the number
		.fetch_parent_block_number(client)
		.unwrap()
                // Enable proof recording if required. This call is optional.
		.enable_proof_recording()
                // Pass the digests. This call is optional.
                .with_inherent_digests(digests)
		.build()
		.expect("Creates new block builder");
