--tpu-enable-udp is introduced. And when this is on, the transaction receive and transaction forward is enabled using udp.
Except for a few tests which was hard-coded sending transactions using udp, most tests are being done with udp based tpu disabled.
* Keypair: implement clone()
This was not implemented upstream in ed25519-dalek to force everyone to
think twice before creating another copy of a potentially sensitive
private key in memory.
See https://github.com/dalek-cryptography/ed25519-dalek/issues/76
However, there are now 9 instances of
Keypair::from_bytes(&keypair.to_bytes())
in the solana codebase and it would be preferable to have a function.
In particular since this also comes up when writing programs and can
cause users to either start messing with lifetimes or discover the
from_bytes() workaround themselves.
This patch opts to not implement the Clone trait. This avoids automatic
use in order to preserve some of the original "let developers think
twice about this" intention.
* Use Keypair::clone
* Remove UseQuic type
Move to storing the UdpSocket on ConnectionCache and accepting a bool
* Remove use_quic from ConnectionCache constructor
Replace with separate with_udp constructor to force callers to choose
* Make sure to root local slots even with hard fork
* Address review comments
* Cleanup a bit
* Further clean up
* Further clean up a bit
* Add comment
* Tweak hard fork reconciliation code placement
* Connection pool in connection cache and handle connection errors
1. The connection not has a pool of connections per address, configurable, default 4
2. The connections per address share a lazy initialized endpoint
3. Handle connection issues better, avoid race conditions
4. Various log improvement for help debug connection issues
* client: Remove static connection cache, plumb it instead
* Add TpuClient::new_with_connection_cache to not break downstream
* Refactor get_connection and RwLock into ConnectionCache
* Fix merge conflicts from new async TpuClient
* Remove `ConnectionCache::set_use_quic`
* Move DEFAULT_TPU_USE_QUIC to client, use ConnectionCache::default()
Add in some CPU utilization metrics such as: number of vCPUs, clock frequency, average load across different time intervals, and number of total threads
Refactor the thin_client::create_client to take addresses separately instead of as a tuple

This PR renames BlockstoreAdvancedOptions to LedgerColumnOptions, as we will
pass-down this struct to LedgerColumn to allow it to perform metric reporting.
#### Summary of Changes
This PR further enables group by operation on storage type in blockstore_rocksdb_cfs metrics.
Such group-by allows us to further compare the performance metrics between rocks-level and
rocks-fifo.
To make things extensible, this PR introduces BlockstoreAdvancedOptions and move shred_storage_type.
All fields in BlockstoreAdvancedOptions will support group-by operation in blockstore_rocksdb_cfs.
Dependency: #23580
* Add quic-client module to send transactions via quic, abstracted behind the TpuConnection trait (along with a legacy UDP implementation of TpuConnection) and change thin-client to use TpuConnection
#### Summary of Changes
This PR adds two hidden arguments to the validator that allow users to use RocksDB's FIFO compaction for storing shreds.
--shred-storage <SHRED_STORAGE>
EXPERIMENTAL: Controls how RocksDB compacts shreds. *WARNING*: You will lose your ledger data
when you switch between options. Possible values are: 'level': stores shreds using RocksDB's default (level)
compaction. 'fifo': stores shreds under RocksDB's FIFO compaction. This option is more efficient on
disk-write-bytes of the ledger store. [default: level] [possible values: level, fifo]
--shred-storage-size <SHRED_STORAGE_SIZE_BYTES>
The shred storage size in bytes. The suggested value is 50% of your ledger storage size in bytes. [default:
