It directly affects node security and the default here MUST BE the safe choice
which is to do the verification. Otherwise it's just dangerous, absent any
VerifyBlocks configuration we'll get an insecure node. This option is not
supposed to be frequently used and it doesn't affect the ability to process
blocks, so breaking compatibility (in a safe manner) should be OK here.
And include some node-specific configurations there with backwards
compatibility. Note that in the future we'll remove Ledger's
fields from the ProtocolConfiguration and it'll be possible to access them in
Blockchain directly (not via .Ledger).
The other option tried was using two configuration types separately, but that
incurs more changes to the codebase, single structure that behaves almost like
the old one is better for backwards compatibility.
Fixes#2676.
Private DAO is only used in a single thread which means we can safely reuse
key/data buffers most of the time and handle it all in DAO.
Doesn't affect any benchmarks.
Most of the time we don't need locking on the higher-level stores and we drop
them after Persist, so that's what private MemCachedStore is for.
It doesn't improve things in any noticeable way, some ~1% can be observed in
neo-bench under various loads and even less than that in chain processing. But
it seems to be a bit better anyway (less allocations, less locks).
They never return errors, so their interface should reflect that. This allows
to remove quite a lot of useless and never tested code.
Notice that Get still does return an error. It can be made not to do that, but
usually we need to differentiate between successful/unsuccessful accesses
anyway, so this doesn't help much.
Add "active" flag into the node data and make the remainder modal, for active
nodes it's a reference counter, for inactive ones the deactivation height is
stored.
Technically, refcounted chains storing just one trie don't need a flag, but
it's a bit simpler this way.
We use 2 prefixes for storing items because of state synchronization.
This commit allows to parametrize dao with the default prefix.

We don't need this method to be exposed, the only its user is the
StateSync module. At the same time StateSync module manages its state by
itself which guarantees that (*Blockchain).jumpToState will be called
with proper StateSync stage.
Before state sync process can be started, outdated MPT nodes
should be removed from storage. After state sync is completed,
outdated blocks/transactions/AERs should also be removed.
In this commit:
1. Request unknown MPT nodes from peers. Note, that StateSync module itself
shouldn't be responsible for nodes requests, that's a server duty.
2. Do not request the same node twice, check if it is in storage
already. If so, then the only thing remaining is to update refcounter.
