Move them to the core/network packages, close#2950. The name of
mempool's unsorted transactions metrics has been changed along the
way to match the core's metrics naming convention.

Everywhere including examples, external interop APIs, bindings generators
code and in other valuable places. A couple of `interface{}` usages are
intentionally left in the CHANGELOG.md, documentation and tests.
It's very effective in avoiding allocations for big.Int, we don't have a
microbenchmark for memppol, but this improves TPS metrics by ~1-2%, so it's
noticeable.
Transaction is added to verifiedMap before OOM check, so we may have a
case when OOM occurs during tx1 pooling, but mp.containsKey(tx1)
returns `true` after this. Fixed.
It's not needed, we're either creating a new one and assigning it 6 lines
above or we're changing already existing big.Int via a pointer, so no update
is needed.
There is nothing requiring us to do so. It also is bad because it allows for
new transaction to replace some already existing one with the same fee
parameters just because it has "better" hash.
But the other thing is that for transactions with equal fees it's always
better for us to append them to the end of the list, instead of inserting them
in the middle, so this change allows to reduce slice item movements and gain
some 6-7% increase for single-node TPS.
Time is not really relevant for us here and we don't use this timestamp in any
way. Yet it occupies 24 bytes and we do two clock_gettime calls to get it.
Replace it with blockStamp which is going to be used in the future for
transaction retransmissions.
It allows to improve single-node TPS by another 3%.
Now we have VerifyTx() and PoolTx() APIs that either verify transaction in
isolation or verify it against the mempool (either the primary one or the one
given) and then add it there. There is no possibility to check against the
mempool, but not add a transaction to it, but I doubt we really need it.
It allows to remove some duplication between old PoolTx and verifyTx where
they both tried to check transaction against mempool (verifying first and then
adding it). It also saves us utility token balance check because it's done by
the mempool anyway and we no longer need to do that explicitly in verifyTx.
It makes AddBlock() and verifyBlock() transaction's checks more correct,
because previously they could miss that even though sender S has enough
balance to pay for A, B or C, he can't pay for all of them.
Caveats:
* consensus is running concurrently to other processes, so things could
change while verifyBlock() is iterating over transactions, this will be
mitigated in subsequent commits
Improves TPS value for single node by at least 11%.
Fixes#667, fixes#668.
After block was stored it's possible to have new FeePerByte constraint,
so we should remove all transactions which do not meet this requirement.
Also caching of FeePerByte was added in order not to re-verify
transactions each time mempool needs to be updated.
There is no such thing as high/low priority transactions, as there are
no free transactions anymore and they are ordered by fees contained
in transaction itself.
Closes#1063.
Our mempool only contains valid verified transactions all the time, it never
has any unverified ones. Unverified pool made some sense for quick unverifying
after the new block acceptance (and gradual background reverification), but
reverification needs some non-trivial locking between blockchain and mempool
and internal mempool state locking (reverifying tx and moving it between
unverified and verified pools must be atomic). But our current reverification
is fast enough (and has all the appropriate locks), so bothering with
unverified pool makes little sense.
