Currently, geth's will return `[]` for any `len(topics) > 4` log filter. The EVM only supports up to four logs, via LOG4 opcode, so larger criterias fail. This change makes the filter query exit early in those cases.
This change improves GenerateChain to support internal chain history access (ChainReader)
for the consensus engine and EVM.
GenerateChain takes a `parent` block and the number of blocks to create. With my changes,
the consensus engine and EVM can now access blocks from `parent` up to the block currently
being generated. This is required to make the BLOCKHASH instruction work, and also needed
to create real clique chains. Clique uses chain history to figure out if the current signer is in-turn,
for example.
I've also added some more accessors to BlockGen. These are helpful when creating transactions:
- g.Signer returns a signer instance for the current block
- g.Difficulty returns the current block difficulty
- g.Gas returns the remaining gas amount
Another fix in this commit concerns the receipts returned by GenerateChain. The receipts now
have properly derived fields (BlockHash, etc.) and should generally match what would be
returned by the RPC API.
This change removes a chainconfig parameter passed into rawdb.ReadLogs, which is not used nor needed.
It also modifies the filter loop slightly, avoiding a labeled break and instead using a method.
This change does not modify any behaviour.
Drop the notions of uncles, and disables activities while syncing
- Disable activities (e.g. generate pending state) while node is syncing,
- Disable empty block submission (but empty block is still kept for payload building),
- Drop uncle notion since (ethash is already deprecated)
This change implements async log retrievals via feeding logs in channels, instead of returning slices. This is a first step to implement #15063.

ethclient accepts certain negative block number values as specifiers for the "pending",
"safe" and "finalized" block. In case of "pending", the value accepted by ethclient (-1)
did not match rpc.PendingBlockNumber (-2).
This wasn't really a problem, but other values accepted by ethclient did match the
definitions in package rpc, and it's weird to have this one special case where they don't.
To fix it, we decided to change the values of the constants rather than changing ethclient.
The constant values are not otherwise significant. This is a breaking API change, but we
believe not a dangerous one.

Logs stored on disk have minimal information. Contextual information such as block
number, index of log in block, index of transaction in block are filled in upon request.
We can fill in all these fields only having the block header and list of receipts.
But determining the transaction hash of a log requires the block body.
The goal of this PR is postponing this retrieval until we are sure we the transaction hash.
It happens often that the header bloom filter signals there might be matches in a block,
but after actually checking them reveals the logs do not match. We want to avoid fetching
the body in this case.
Note that this changes the semantics of Backend.GetLogs. Downstream callers of
GetLogs now assume log context fields have not been derived, and need to call
DeriveFields on the logs if necessary.
This ensures that RPC method handlers will react to a timeout or
cancelled request soon after the event occurs.

It seems there is no fully typed library implementation of an LRU cache.
So I wrote one. Method names are the same as github.com/hashicorp/golang-lru,
and the new type can be used as a drop-in replacement.
Two reasons to do this:
- It's much easier to understand what a cache is for when the types are right there.
- Performance: the new implementation is slightly faster and performs zero memory
allocations in Add when the cache is at capacity. Overall, memory usage of the cache
is much reduced because keys are values are no longer wrapped in interface.
This PR changes the pending tx subscription to return RPCTransaction types instead of normal Transaction objects. This will fix the inconsistencies with other tx returning API methods (i.e. getTransactionByHash), and also fill in the sender value for the tx.

This PR adds a way to subscribe to the _full_ pending transactions, as opposed to just being notified about hashes.
In use cases where client subscribes to newPendingTransactions and gets txhashes only to then request the actual transaction, the caller can now shortcut that flow and obtain the transactions directly.

Prior to this change, f.begin (and possibly end) stay negative, leading to strange results later in the code. With this change, filters using "safe" and "finalized" block produce results consistent w/ the overall behavior of this RPC method.

This adds a cache for block logs which is shared by all filters. The cache
size of is configurable using the `--cache.blocklogs` flag.

This enables the following linters
- typecheck
- unused
- staticcheck
- bidichk
- durationcheck
- exportloopref
- gosec
WIth a few exceptions.
- We use a deprecated protobuf in trezor. I didn't want to mess with that, since I cannot meaningfully test any changes there.
- The deprecated TypeMux is used in a few places still, so the warning for it is silenced for now.
- Using string type in context.WithValue is apparently wrong, one should use a custom type, to prevent collisions between different places in the hierarchy of callers. That should be fixed at some point, but may require some attention.
- The warnings for using weak random generator are squashed, since we use a lot of random without need for cryptographic guarantees.
