This adds a few tiny fixes for les and the p2p simulation framework:

LES Parts

- Keep the LES-SERVER connection even it's non-synced

  We had this idea to reject the connections in LES protocol if the les-server itself is
  not synced. However, in LES protocol we will also receive the connection from another
  les-server. In this case even the local node is not synced yet, we should keep the tcp
  connection for other protocols(e.g. eth protocol).

- Don't count "invalid message" for non-existing GetBlockHeadersMsg request

  In the eth syncing mechanism (full sync, fast sync, light sync), it will try to fetch
  some non-existent blocks or headers(to ensure we indeed download all the missing chain).
  In this case, it's possible that the les-server will receive the request for
  non-existent headers. So don't count it as the "invalid message" for scheduling
  dropping.

- Copy the announce object in the closure

  Before the les-server pushes the latest headers to all connected clients, it will create
  a closure and queue it in the underlying request scheduler. In some scenarios it's
  problematic. E.g, in private networks, the block can be mined very fast. So before the
  first closure is executed, we may already update the latest_announce object. So actually
  the "announce" object we want to send is replaced.

  The downsize is the client will receive two announces with the same td and then drop the
  server.

P2P Simulation Framework

- Don't double register the protocol services in p2p-simulation "Start".

  The protocols upon the devp2p are registered in the "New node stage". So don't reigster
  them again when starting a node in the p2p simulation framework

- Add one more new config field "ExternalSigner", in order to use clef service in the
  framework.

This PR adds an extra guarantee to NodeStateMachine: it ensures that all
immediate effects of a certain change are processed before any subsequent
effects of any of the immediate effects on the same node. In the original
version, if a cascaded change caused a subscription callback to be called
multiple times for the same node then these calls might have happened in a
wrong chronological order.

For example:

- a subscription to flag0 changes flag1 and flag2
- a subscription to flag1 changes flag3
- a subscription to flag1, flag2 and flag3 was called in the following order:

   [flag1] -> [flag1, flag3]
   [] -> [flag1]
   [flag1, flag3] -> [flag1, flag2, flag3]

This happened because the tree of changes was traversed in a "depth-first
order". Now it is traversed in a "breadth-first order"; each node has a
FIFO queue for pending callbacks and each triggered subscription callback
is added to the end of the list. The already existing guarantees are
retained; no SetState or SetField returns until the callback queue of the
node is empty again. Just like before, it is the responsibility of the
state machine design to ensure that infinite state loops are not possible.
Multiple changes affecting the same node can still happen simultaneously;
in this case the changes can be interleaved in the FIFO of the node but the
correct order is still guaranteed.

A new unit test is also added to verify callback order in the above scenario.

This PR significantly changes the APIs for instantiating Ethereum nodes in
a Go program. The new APIs are not backwards-compatible, but we feel that
this is made up for by the much simpler way of registering services on
node.Node. You can find more information and rationale in the design
document: https://gist.github.com/renaynay/5bec2de19fde66f4d04c535fd24f0775.

There is also a new feature in Node's Go API: it is now possible to
register arbitrary handlers on the user-facing HTTP server. In geth, this
facility is used to enable GraphQL.

There is a single minor change relevant for geth users in this PR: The
GraphQL API is no longer available separately from the JSON-RPC HTTP
server. If you want GraphQL, you need to enable it using the
./geth --http --graphql flag combination.

The --graphql.port and --graphql.addr flags are no longer available.

This PR reimplements the light client server pool. It is also a first step
to move certain logic into a new lespay package. This package will contain
the implementation of the lespay token sale functions, the token buying and
selling logic and other components related to peer selection/prioritization
and service quality evaluation. Over the long term this package will be
reusable for incentivizing future protocols.

Since the LES peer logic is now based on enode.Iterator, it can now use
DNS-based fallback discovery to find servers.

* all: seperate consensus error and evm internal error

There are actually two types of error will be returned when
a tranaction/message call is executed: (a) consensus error
(b) evm internal error. The former should be converted to
a consensus issue, e.g. The sender doesn't enough asset to
purchase the gas it specifies. The latter is allowed since
evm itself is a blackbox and internal error is allowed to happen.

This PR emphasizes the difference by introducing a executionResult
structure. The evm error is embedded inside. So if any error
returned, it indicates consensus issue happens.

And also this PR improve the `EstimateGas` API to return the concrete
revert reason if the transaction always fails

This PR adds service value measurement statistics to the light client. It
also adds a private API that makes these statistics accessible. A follow-up
PR will add the new server pool which uses these statistics to select
servers with good performance.

* les: fix flaky test

* eth: fix flaky test

* les: move execqueue into utilities package

execqueue is a util for executing queued functions
in a serial order which is used by both les server
and les client. Move it to common package.

* les: move randselect to utilities package

weighted_random_selector is a helpful tool for randomly select
items maintained in a set but based on the item weight.

It's used anywhere is LES package, mainly by les client but will
be used in les server with very high chance. So move it into a
common package as the second step for les separation.

* les: rename to utils

Prior to this change, eth_call changed the balance of the sender account in the
EVM environment to 2^256 wei to cover the gas cost of the call execution.
We've had this behavior for a long time even though it's super confusing.

This commit sets the default call gasprice to zero instead of updating the balance,
which is better because it makes eth_call semantics less surprising. Removing
the built-in balance assignment also makes balance overrides work as expected.
