Michael Sproul 4fca306397 Update BLST, add force-adx support (#1595)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1504
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1505

## Proposed Changes

* Update `blst` to the latest version, which is more portable and includes finer-grained compilation controls (see below).
* Detect the case where a binary has been explicitly compiled with ADX support but it's missing at runtime, and report a nicer error than `SIGILL`.

## Known Issues

* None. The previous issue with `make build-aarch64` (https://github.com/supranational/blst/issues/27), has been resolved.

## Additional Info

I think we should tweak our release process and our Docker builds so that we provide two options:

Binaries:

* `lighthouse`: compiled with `modern`/`force-adx`, for CPUs 2013 and newer
* `lighthouse-portable`: compiled with `portable` for older CPUs

Docker images:

* `sigp/lighthouse:latest`: multi-arch image with `modern` x86_64 and vanilla aarch64 binary
* `sigp/lighthouse:latest-portable`: multi-arch image with `portable` builds for x86_64 and aarch64

And relevant Docker images for the releases (as per https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/1574#issuecomment-687766141), tagged `v0.x.y` and `v0.x.y-portable`

Overview

Lighthouse is:

  • Fully open-source, licensed under Apache 2.0.
  • Security-focused. Fuzzing has begun and security reviews are underway.
  • Built in Rust, a modern language providing unique safety guarantees and excellent performance (comparable to C++).
  • Funded by various organisations, including Sigma Prime, the Ethereum Foundation, ConsenSys and private individuals.
  • Actively involved in the specification and security analysis of the emerging Ethereum 2.0 specification.

Like all Ethereum 2.0 clients, Lighthouse is a work-in-progress.

Development Status

Current development overview:

  • Specification v0.12.1 implemented, optimized and passing test vectors.
  • Rust-native libp2p with Gossipsub and Discv5.
  • RESTful JSON API via HTTP server.
  • Events via WebSocket.
  • Metrics via Prometheus.

Roadmap

  • April 2019: Inital single-client testnets.
  • September 2019: Inter-operability with other Ethereum 2.0 clients.
  • Q1 2020: lighthouse-0.1.0 release: All major phase 0 features implemented.
  • Q2 2020: Public, multi-client testnet with user-facing functionality.
  • Q2 2020: Third-party security review.
  • Q3 2020: Additional third-party security reviews.
  • Q3 2020: Long-lived, multi-client Beacon Chain testnet
  • Q4 2020: Production Beacon Chain (tentative).
