This is the 2nd installment for the AccountsDb replication.
Summary of Changes
The basic google protocol buffer protocol for replicating updated slots and accounts. tonic/tokio is used for transporting the messages.
The basic framework of the client and server for replicating slots and accounts -- the persisting of accounts in the replica-side will be done at the next PR -- right now -- the accounts are streamed to the replica-node and dumped. Replication for information about Bank is also not done in this PR -- to be addressed in the next PR to limit the change size.
Functionality used by both the client and server side are encapsulated in the replica-lib crate.
There is no impact to the existing validator by default.
Tests:
Observe the confirmed slots replicated to the replica-node.
Observe the accounts for the confirmed slot are received at the replica-node side.
#### Problem
Snapshot names are overloaded, and there are multiple terms that mean the same thing. This is confusing. Here's a list of ones in the codebase that I've found:
```
- snapshot_dir
- snapshots_dir
- snapshot_path
- snapshot_output_dir
- snapshot_package_output_path
- snapshot_archives_dir
```
#### Summary of Changes
For all the ones that are about the directory where snapshot archives are stored, ensure they are `snapshot_archives_dir`. For the ones about the (bank) snapshots directory, set to `bank_snapshots_dir`.

While reviewing PR #18565, as issue was brought up to refactor some code
around verifying the bank after rebuilding from snapshots. A new
top-level function has been added to get the latest snapshot archives
and load the bank then verify. Additionally, new tests have been
written and existing tests have been updated to use this new function.
Fixes#18973
While resolving the issue, it became clear there was some additional
low-hanging fruit this change enabled. Specifically, the functions
`bank_to_xxx_snapshot_archive()` now return their respective
`SnapshotArchiveInfo`. And on the flip side,
`bank_from_snapshot_archives()` now takes `SnapshotArchiveInfo`s instead
of separate paths and archive formats. This bundling simplifies bank
rebuilding.
This commit also renames `snapshot_interval_slots` to
`full_snapshot_archive_interval_slots`, updates the comments on the
fields, and make appropriate updates where SnapshotConfig is used.
This is the first installment of the AccountsDb replication. Summary of Changes:
The rpc-node for AccountsDb replication executable cherry-picked from Steven's branch
Auto figuring out the snapshot to download via gossip
The replica now can download the snapshot, initialize the bank and AccountsDb, start the JsonRpcService
Integration test of a validator paired with a replica.
