This PR fixes multiple issues with the UDP connection pre-negotiation feature:
- the enable condition was wrong (it checked the existence of the DiscV5 struct where it wasn't initialized yet, disabling the feature even if discv5 was enabled)
- the server pool queried already connected nodes when the discovery iterators returned them again
- servers responded positively before they were synced and really willing to accept connections
Metrics are also added on the server side that count the positive and negative replies to served connection queries.
This PR implements the first one of the "lespay" UDP queries which
is already useful in itself: the capacity query. The server pool is making
use of this query by doing a cheap UDP query to determine whether it is
worth starting the more expensive TCP connection process.
This PR enables running the new discv5 protocol in both LES client
and server mode. In client mode it mixes discv5 and dnsdisc iterators
(if both are enabled) and filters incoming ENRs for "les" tag and fork ID.
The old p2p/discv5 package and all references to it are removed.

This commit splits the eth package, separating the handling of eth and snap protocols. It also includes the capability to run snap sync (https://github.com/ethereum/devp2p/blob/master/caps/snap.md) , but does not enable it by default.

This PR reimplements the light client server pool. It is also a first step
to move certain logic into a new lespay package. This package will contain
the implementation of the lespay token sale functions, the token buying and
selling logic and other components related to peer selection/prioritization
and service quality evaluation. Over the long term this package will be
reusable for incentivizing future protocols.
Since the LES peer logic is now based on enode.Iterator, it can now use
DNS-based fallback discovery to find servers.
This document describes the function of the new components:
