* metrics/prometheus: define type once for histograms

* metrics/prometheus: test collector

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.

This document describes the function of the new components:

* accounts/abi: removed superfluous test cases

This commit removes two test cases. The first one is trivially invalid as we have the same
test cases as passing in packing_test.go L375. The second one passes now,
because we don't need the mapArgNamesToStructFields in unpack_atomic anymore.
Checking for purely underscored arg names generally should not be something we do
as the abi/contract is generally out of the control of the user.

* core: fix missing receipt

* core: address comment

* accounts/abi: allow overloaded argument names

In solidity it is possible to create the following contract:
```
contract Overloader {
    struct F { uint _f; uint __f; uint f; }
    function f(F memory f) public {}
}
```
This however resulted in a panic in the abi package.

* p2p: add low port check in dialer

We already have a check like this for UDP ports, add a similar one in
the dialer. This prevents dials to port zero and it's also an extra
layer of protection against spamming HTTP servers.

* p2p/simulations/adapters: ensure assigned port is in all node records

* core/rawdb: Stop freezer process as part of freezer.Close()

When you call db.Close(), it was closing the leveldb database first,
then closing the freezer, but never stopping the freezer process.
This could cause the freezer to attempt to write to leveldb after
leveldb had been closed, leading to a crash with a non-zero exit code.

This change adds a quit channel to the freezer, and freezer.Close()
will not return until the freezer process has stopped.

Additionally, when you call freezerdb.Close(), it will close the
AncientStore before closing leveldb, to ensure that the freezer goroutine
will be stopped before leveldb is closed.
