* Remove logging init from storage program: saw a crash in a test
indicating the logger being init'ed twice.
* Add entry_height mining proof to indicate which segment the result is
for
* Add an interface to get storage miner pubkeys for a given entry_height
* Add an interface to get the current storage mining entry_height
* Set the tvu socket to 0.0.0.0:0 in replicator to stop getting entries
after the desired ledger segment is downloaded.
* Use signature of PoH height to determine which block to download for
replicator.
* Insert blobs into db_ledger in broadcast stage to support leader to validator transitions
* Add transmitting real slots to broadcast stage
* Handle real slots instead of default slots in window
* Switch to dummy repair on slots and modify erasure to support leader rotation
* Shorten length of holding locks
* Remove logger from replicator test
* Move more of the replicator logic into the replicator class
* Add support for the RPC interface to query the storage last_id value
that the replicator would sign and use to pick a block.
* Fix replicator connecting to gossip and change test to exercise that
scenario.
* Add db_window module for windowing functions from RocksDb
* Replace window with db_window functions in window_service
* Fix tests
* Make note of change in db_window
* Create RocksDb ledger in bin/fullnode
* Make db_ledger functions generic
* Add db_ledger to bin/replicator
* Cluster Replicated Data Store
Separate the data storage and merge strategy from the network IO boundary.
Implement an eager push overlay for transporting recent messages.
Simulation shows fast convergence with 20k nodes.
add linked-list capability to accounts
change accounts from a linked list to a VecDeque
add checkpoint and rollback for lastids
add subscriber notifications for rollbacks
checkpoint transaction count, too
* Add first leader to genesis entries, consume in genesis.sh
* Set bootstrap leader in the bank on startup, remove instantiation of bootstrap leader from bin/fullnode
* Remove need to initialize bootstrap leader in leader_scheduler, now can be read from genesis entries
* Add separate interface new_with_leader() in mint for creating genesis leader entries
* Added tests to thin client to test VoteContract calls, fix VoteContract sizing errors
* Calculate upper bound on VoteProgram size at runtime, add test for serializing/deserializing a max sized VoteProgram state
