With a DKG removal comes a reduction in the amount of participants which was
ignored by re-attempts.
Now, we determine n/i based on the parties removed, and deterministically
obtain the context of who was removd.
* fix typos
* remove tributary sleeping
* handle not locally provided txs
* use topic number instead of waiting list
* Clean-up, fixes
1) Uses a single TXN in provided
2) Doesn't continue on non-local provided inside verify_block, skipping further
execution of checks
3) Upon local provision of already on-chain TX, compares

* add slash tx
* ignore unsigned tx replays
* verify that provided evidence is valid
* fix clippy + fmt
* move application tx handling to another module
* partially handle the tendermint txs
* fix pr comments
* support unsigned app txs
* add slash target to the votes
* enforce provided, unsigned, signed tx ordering within a block
* bug fixes
* add unit test for tendermint txs
* bug fixes
* update tests for tendermint txs
* add tx ordering test
* tidy up tx ordering test
* cargo +nightly fmt
* Misc fixes from rebasing
* Finish resolving clippy
* Remove sha3 from tendermint-machine
* Resolve a DoS in SlashEvidence's read
Also moves Evidence from Vec<Message> to (Message, Option<Message>). That
should meet all requirements while being a bit safer.
* Make lazy_static a dev-depend for tributary
* Various small tweaks
One use of sort was inefficient, sorting unsigned || signed when unsigned was
already properly sorted. Given how the unsigned TXs were given a nonce of 0, an
unstable sort may swap places with an unsigned TX and a signed TX with a nonce
of 0 (leading to a faulty block).
The extra protection added here sorts signed, then concats.
* Fix Tributary tests I broke, start review on tendermint/tx.rs
* Finish reviewing everything outside tests and empty_signature
* Remove empty_signature
empty_signature led to corrupted local state histories. Unfortunately, the API
is only sane with a signature.
We now use the actual signature, which risks creating a signature over a
malicious message if we have ever have an invariant producing malicious
messages. Prior, we only signed the message after the local machine confirmed
it was okay per the local view of consensus.
This is tolerated/preferred over a corrupt state history since production of
such messages is already an invariant. TODOs are added to make handling of this
theoretical invariant further robust.
* Remove async_sequential for tokio::test
There was no competition for resources forcing them to be run sequentially.
* Modify block order test to be statistically significant without multiple runs
* Clean tests

Reduces lock contention.
Additionally changes block_key to include the genesis. While not technically
needed, the lack of genesis introduced a side effect where any Tributary on the
the database could return the block of any other Tributary. While that wasn't a
security issue, returning it suggested it was on-chain when it wasn't. This may
have been usable to create issues.
This defines the tart of a very complex series of locks I'm really unhappy
with. At the same time, there's not immediately a better solution. This also
should work without issue.
Necessary as our Tributary chains needed to agree when a Serai block has
occurred, and when a Monero block has occurred. Since those could happen at the
same time, some validators may put SeraiBlock before ExternalBlock and vice
versa, causing a chain halt. Now they can have distinct ordering queues.
Previously, Tendermint needed to be live more than it needed to be correct.
Under the original intention for it, correctness would fail if any coin
desynced, which would cause the node to fail entirely. By accepting a
supermajority's view of state, despite its own, a single coin's failure would
only lead to inability to participate with that single coin.
Now that Tendermint is solely for Tributary, nodes should halt a coin-specific
chain if their view of the chain differs. They are unable to meaningless
participate regardless.
This also means a supermajority of validators can no longer fake messages from
other validators, allowing the Tributary chain to use uniform weights with much
less impact. There is still enough impact they can't be used (ability to cause
a fork), yet they should allow uniform block production (as that's solely a DoS
concern).
While we prior could've simply additionally checked signatures, add_block's
lack of a failure case would've meant it had to panic. This would've been a DoS
possible a minority-weight *which affected the entire coordinator* and
therefore *the entire validator for all coins*.
