* 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
* 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
* Add Vote Contract
* Move ownership of LeaderScheduler from Fullnode to the bank
* Modified ReplicateStage to consume leader information from bank
* Restart RPC Services in Leader To Validator Transition
* Make VoteContract Context Free
* Remove voting from ClusterInfo and Tpu
* Remove dependency on ActiveValidators in LeaderScheduler
* Switch VoteContract to have two steps 1) Register 2) Vote. Change thin client to create + register a voting account on fullnode startup
* Remove check in leader_to_validator transition for unique references to bank, b/c jsonrpc service and rpcpubsub hold references through jsonhttpserver
* Move ledger write to its own stage
- Also, rename write_stage to leader_vote_stage, as write functionality
is moved to a different stage
* Address review comments
* Fix leader rotation test failure
* address review comments
* Add PoH height to process_ledger()
* Moved broadcast_stage Leader Scheduling logic to use Poh height instead of entry_height
* Moved LeaderScheduler logic to PoH in ReplicateStage
* Fix Leader scheduling tests to use PoH instead of entry height
* Change is_leader detection in repair() to use PoH instead of entry height
* Add tests to LeaderScheduler for new functionality
* fix Entry::new and genesis block PoH counts
* Moved LeaderScheduler to PoH ticks
* Cleanup to resolve PR comments
Generate tick entry ids and only register ticks as the last_id expected by the bank. Since the bank is MT, the in-flight pipeline of transactions cannot be close to the end of the queue or there is a high possibility that a starved thread will encode an expired last_id into the ledger. The banking_stage therefore uses a shorter age limit for encoded last_ids then the validators.
Bench client doesn't send transactions that are older then 30 seconds.
* Added LeaderScheduler module and tests
* plumbing for LeaderScheduler in Fullnode + tests. Add vote processing for active set to ReplicateStage and WriteStage
* Add LeaderScheduler plumbing for Tvu, window, and tests
* Fix bank and switch tests to use new LeaderScheduler
* move leader rotation check from window service to replicate stage
* Add replicate_stage leader rotation exit test
* removed leader scheduler from the window service and associated modules/tests
* Corrected is_leader calculation in repair() function in window.rs
* Integrate LeaderScheduler with write_stage for leader to validator transitions
* Integrated LeaderScheduler with BroadcastStage
* Removed gossip leader rotation from crdt
* Add multi validator, leader test
* Comments and cleanup
* Remove unneeded checks from broadcast stage
* Fix case where a validator/leader need to immediately transition on startup after reading ledger and seeing they are not in the correct role
* Set new leader in validator -> validator transitions
* Clean up for PR comments, refactor LeaderScheduler from process_entry/process_ledger_tail
* Cleaned out LeaderScheduler options, implemented LeaderScheduler strategy that only picks the bootstrap leader to support existing tests, drone/airdrops
* Ignore test_full_leader_validator_network test due to bug where the next leader in line fails to get the last entry before rotation (b/c it hasn't started up yet). Added a test test_dropped_handoff_recovery go track this bug
