* Correct the prior documented TOCTOU
d50fe87801 edited the challenge for the Batch to
fix it. This won't produce Batch n+1 until Batch n is successfully published
and verified. It's an alternative strategy able to be reviewed, with a much
smaller impact to scope.
Now, if a malicious validator set publishes a malicious `Batch` at the last
moment, it'll cause all future `Batch`s signed by the next validator set to
require a bool being set (yet they never will set it).
This will prevent the handover.
The only overhead is having two distinct `batch_message` calls on-chain.
The new set publishing a `Batch` completes the handover protocol. The new set
should only publish a `Batch` once it believes the old set has completed all of
its on-external-chain activity, marking it honest and finite.
With the handover comes the acceptance of liability, hence the requirement for
all of the on-Serai-chain activity also needing verification. While most
activity would be verified in-real-time (upon ::Batch messages), the new set
will now explicitly verify the complete set of `Batch`s before beginning its
preprocess for its own `Batch` (the one accepting the handover).
pre_dispatch is guaranteed by documentation to be called and persisted.
validate_unsigned is not, though the provided pre_dispatch does by default call
validate_unsigned. By explicitly providing our own pre_dispatch, we accomplish
the bounds we require and expect, only being invalidated on Substrate
redefining their API.
We should still test this, yet since we call retire_session in
validate_unsigned, any test of rotation will test it's being properly called.
Sets a stake requirement of 100k for Serai and Monero, as Serai doesn't have
stake requirements and Monero isn't expected to see as much
volume/institutional support as Bitcoin/Ethereum.
We took with `amount`, not `prior`, allowing multiple presences in
SortedAllocations.
While spam is limited by the amount of nibbles in the amount, the key provides
a much larger space to abuse. Inserting a cryptographic hash prevents its use
for abuse.
* initial staking pallet
* add staking pallet to runtime
* support session rotation for serai
* optimizations & cleaning
* fix deny
* add serai network to initial networks
* a few tweaks & comments
* fix some pr comments
* Rewrite validator-sets with logarithmic algorithms
Uses the fact the underlying DB is sorted to achieve sorting of potential
validators by stake.
Removes release of deallocated stake for now.

Renames Update to SignedBatch.
Checks Batch equality via a hash of the InInstructions. That prevents needing
to keep the Batch in node state or TX introspect.
Fixes where ram_scanned is updated in processor. The prior version, while safe,
would redo massive amounts of work during periods of inactivity. It also hit an
undocumented invariant where get_eventuality_completions assumes new blocks,
yet redone work wouldn't have new blocks.
Modifies Monero's generate_blocks to return the hashes of the generated blocks.
* restrict batch size to ~25kb
* add batch size check to node
* rate limit batches to 1 per serai block
* add support for multiple batches for block
* fix review comments
* Misc fixes
Doesn't yet update tests/processor until data flow is inspected.
* Move the block from SignId to ProcessorMessage::BatchPreprocesses
* Misc clean up

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.
The Processor's coins folder referred to the networks it could process, as did
its Coin trait. This, and other similar cases throughout the codebase, have now
been corrected.
Also corrects dated documentation for a key pair is confirmed under the
validator-sets pallet.
