- Step 0 of the tree-sync roadmap https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/7678
Current lookup sync tests are written in an explicit way that assume how the internals of lookup sync work. For example the test would do:
- Emit unknown block parent message
- Expect block request for X
- Respond with successful block request
- Expect block processing request for X
- Response with successful processing request
- etc..
This is unnecessarily verbose. And it will requires a complete re-write when something changes in the internals of lookup sync (has happened a few times, mostly for deneb and fulu).
What we really want to assert is:
- WHEN: we receive an unknown block parent message
- THEN: Lookup sync can sync that block
- ASSERT: Without penalizing peers, without unnecessary retries
Keep all existing tests and add new cases but written in the new style described above. The logic to serve and respond to request is in this function `fn simulate` 2288a3aeb1/beacon_node/network/src/sync/tests/lookups.rs (L301)
- It controls peer behavior based on a `CompleteStrategy` where you can set for example "respond to BlocksByRoot requests with empty"
- It actually runs beacon processor messages running their clousures. Now sync tests actually import blocks, increasing the test coverage to the interaction of sync and the da_checker.
- To achieve the above the tests create real blocks with the test harness. To make the tests as fast as before, I disabled crypto with `TestConfig`
Along the way I found a couple bugs, which I documented on the diff.

Currently, `consensus/types` cannot build with `no-default-features` since we use "legacy" standard arithmetic operations.
- Remove the offending arithmetic to fix compilation.
- Rename `legacy-arith` to `saturating-arith` and disable it by default.

This reverts some of the changes from #8524 by adding back the typed network endpoints with an optional `network` feature. Without the `network` feature, these endpoints (and associated dependencies) will not be built.
This means the `enr`, `multiaddr` and `libp2p-identity` dependencies have returned but are now optional

I accidentally broke `unstable` while merging some missed commits from `release-v8.0`. The merge was clean but semantically broken, and I didn't notice because I pushed without running CI 😬
- Fix the regression test added for #8528, for compatibility with the recent `RpcBlock` changes. I'm passing `is_available = false` which seems correct for this test.

N/A
In https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/4801 , we added a state lru cache to avoid having too many states in memory which was a concern with 200mb+ states pre tree-states.
With https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/5891 , we made the overflow cache a simpler in memory lru cache that can only hold 32 pending states at the most and doesn't flush anything to disk. As noted in #5891, we can always fetch older blocks which never became available over rpc if they become available later.
Since we merged tree states, I don't think the state lru cache is relevant anymore. Instead of having the `DietAvailabilityPendingExecutedBlock` that stores only the state root, we can just store the full state in the `AvailabilityPendingExecutedBlock`.
Given entries in the cache can span max 1 epoch (cache size is 32), the underlying `BeaconState` objects in the cache share most of their memory. The state_lru_cache is one level of indirection that doesn't give us any benefit.
Please check me on this cc @dapplion

Adds support for payload envelopes in the db. This is the minimum we'll need to store and fetch payloads.
