Coordinator Cleanup (#481)
* Move logic for evaluating if a cosign should occur to its own file

Cleans it up and makes it more robust.

* Have expected_next_batch return an error instead of retrying

While convenient to offer an error-free implementation, it potentially caused
very long lived lock acquisitions in handle_processor_message.

* Unify and clean DkgConfirmer and DkgRemoval

Does so via adding a new file for the common code, SigningProtocol.

Modifies from_cache to return the preprocess with the machine, as there's no
reason not to. Also removes an unused Result around the type.

Clarifies the security around deterministic nonces, removing them for
saved-to-disk cached preprocesses. The cached preprocesses are encrypted as the
DB is not a proper secret store.

Moves arguments always present in the protocol from function arguments into the
struct itself.

Removes the horribly ugly code in DkgRemoval, fixing multiple issues present
with it which would cause it to fail on use.

* Set SeraiBlockNumber in cosign.rs as it's used by the cosigning protocol

* Remove unnecessary Clone from lambdas in coordinator

* Remove the EventDb from Tributary scanner

We used per-Transaction DB TXNs so on error, we don't have to rescan the entire
block yet only the rest of it. We prevented scanning multiple transactions by
tracking which we already had.

This is over-engineered and not worth it.

* Implement borsh for HasEvents, removing the manual encoding

* Merge DkgConfirmer and DkgRemoval into signing_protocol.rs

Fixes a bug in DkgConfirmer which would cause it to improperly handle indexes
if any validator had multiple key shares.

* Strictly type DataSpecification's Label

* Correct threshold_i_map_to_keys_and_musig_i_map

It didn't include the participant's own index and accordingly was offset.

* Create TributaryBlockHandler

This struct contains all variables prior passed to handle_block and stops them
from being passed around again and again.

This also ensures fatal_slash is only called while handling a block, as needed
as it expects to operate under perfect consensus.

* Inline accumulate, store confirmation nonces with shares

Inlining accumulate makes sense due to the amount of data accumulate needed to
be passed.

Storing confirmation nonces with shares ensures that both are available or
neither. Prior, one could be yet the other may not have been (requiring an
assert in runtime to ensure we didn't bungle it somehow).

* Create helper functions for handling DkgRemoval/SubstrateSign/Sign Tributary TXs

* Move Label into SignData

All of our transactions which use SignData end up with the same common usage
pattern for Label, justifying this.

Removes 3 transactions, explicitly de-duplicating their handlers.

* Remove CurrentlyCompletingKeyPair for the non-contextual DkgKeyPair

* Remove the manual read/write for TributarySpec for borsh

This struct doesn't have any optimizations booned by the manual impl. Using
borsh reduces our scope.

* Use temporary variables to further minimize LoC in tributary handler

* Remove usage of tuples for non-trivial Tributary transactions

* Remove serde from dkg

serde could be used to deserialize intenrally inconsistent objects which could
lead to panics or faults.

The BorshDeserialize derives have been replaced with a manual implementation
which won't produce inconsistent objects.

* Abstract Future generics using new trait definitions in coordinator

* Move published_signed_transaction to tributary/mod.rs to reduce the size of main.rs

* Split coordinator/src/tributary/mod.rs into spec.rs and transaction.rs

Use parity-db in current Dockerfiles (#455)
* Use redb and in Dockerfiles

The motivation for redb was to remove the multiple rocksdb compile times from
CI.

* Correct feature flagging of coordinator and message-queue in Dockerfiles

* Correct message-queue DB type alias

* Use consistent table typing in redb

* Correct rebase artifacts

* Correct removal of binaries feature from message-queue

* Correct processor feature flagging

* Replace redb with parity-db

It still has much better compile times yet doesn't block when creating multiple
transactions. It also is actively maintained and doesn't grow our tree. The MPT
aspects are irrelevant.

* Correct stray Redb

* clippy warning

* Correct txn get

Replace bincode with borsh (#452)
* Add SignalsConfig to chain_spec

* Correct multiexp feature flagging for rand_core std

* Remove bincode for borsh

Replaces a non-canonical encoding with a canonical encoding which additionally
should be faster.

Also fixes an issue where we used bincode in transcripts where it cannot be
trusted.

This ended up fixing a myriad of other bugs observed, unfortunately.
Accordingly, it either has to be merged or the bug fixes from it must be ported
to a new PR.

* Make serde optional, minimize usage

* Make borsh an optional dependency of substrate/ crates

* Remove unused dependencies

* Use [u8; 64] where possible in the processor messages

* Correct borsh feature flagging

Add a cosigning protocol to ensure finalizations are unique (#433)
* Add a function to deterministically decide which Serai blocks should be co-signed

Has a 5 minute latency between co-signs, also used as the maximal latency
before a co-sign is started.

* Get all active tributaries we're in at a specific block

* Add and route CosignSubstrateBlock, a new provided TX

* Split queued cosigns per network

* Rename BatchSignId to SubstrateSignId

* Add SubstrateSignableId, a meta-type for either Batch or Block, and modularize around it

* Handle the CosignSubstrateBlock provided TX

* Revert substrate_signer.rs to develop (and patch to still work)

Due to SubstrateSigner moving when the prior multisig closes, yet cosigning
occurring with the most recent key, a single SubstrateSigner can be reused.
We could manage multiple SubstrateSigners, yet considering the much lower
specifications for cosigning, I'd rather treat it distinctly.

* Route cosigning through the processor

* Add note to rename SubstrateSigner post-PR

I don't want to do so now in order to preserve the diff's clarity.

* Implement cosign evaluation into the coordinator

* Get tests to compile

* Bug fixes, mark blocks without cosigners available as cosigned

* Correct the ID Batch preprocesses are saved under, add log statements

* Create a dedicated function to handle cosigns

* Correct the flow around Batch verification/queueing

Verifying `Batch`s could stall when a `Batch` was signed before its
predecessors/before the block it's contained in was cosigned (the latter being
inevitable as we can't sign a block containing a signed batch before signing
the batch).

Now, Batch verification happens on a distinct async task in order to not block
the handling of processor messages. This task is the sole caller of verify in
order to ensure last_verified_batch isn't unexpectedly mutated.

When the processor message handler needs to access it, or needs to queue a
Batch, it associates the DB TXN with a lock preventing the other task from
doing so.

This lock, as currently implemented, is a poor and inefficient design. It
should be modified to the pattern used for cosign management. Additionally, a
new primitive of a DB-backed channel may be immensely valuable.

Fixes a standing potential deadlock and a deadlock introduced with the
cosigning protocol.

* Working full-stack tests

After the last commit, this only required extending a timeout.

* Replace "co-sign" with "cosign" to make finding text easier

* Update the coordinator tests to support cosigning

* Inline prior_batch calculation to prevent panic on rotation

Noticed when doing a final review of the branch.

Convert coordinator/tributary/nonce_decider to use create_db macro (#423)
* chore: convert nonce_deicer to use create_db macro

* Restore pub NonceDecider

* Remove extraneous comma

I forgot to run git commit --amend on the prior commit :/

Correct std feature-flagging
If a crate has std set, it should enable std for all dependencies in order to
let them properly select which algorithms to use. Some crates fallback to
slower/worse algorithms on no-std.

Also more aggressively sets default-features = false leading to a *10%*
reduction in the amount of crates coordinator builds.

Add a LibP2P instantiation to coordinator
It's largely unoptimized, and not yet exclusive to validators, yet has basic
sanity (using message content for ID instead of sender + index).

Fixes bugs as found. Notably, we used a time in milliseconds where the
Tributary expected  seconds.

Also has Tributary::new jump to the presumed round number. This reduces slashes
when starting new chains (whose times will be before the current time) and was
the only way I was able to observe successful confirmations given current
surrounding infrastructure.

with. At the same time, there's not immediately a better solution. This also
should work without issue.

Handle adding new Tributaries
Removes last_block as an argument from Tendermint. It now loads from the DB as
needed. While slightly less performant, it's easiest and should be fine.

Add a test to the coordinator for running a Tributary
Impls a LocalP2p for testing.

Moves rebroadcasting into Tendermint, since it's what knows if a message is
fully valid + original.

Removes TributarySpec::validators() HashMap, as its non-determinism caused
different instances to have different round robin schedules. It was already
prior moved to a Vec for this issue, so I'm unsure why this remnant existed.

Also renames the GH no-std workflow from the prior commit.

Use an enum for Coin/NetworkId
It originally wasn't an enum so software which had yet to update before an
integration wouldn't error (as now enums are strictly typed). The strict typing
is preferable though.
