This fixes a corner case in discv5. The issue cannot happen in discv4
because it performs IP checks on all incoming node information.

* modify code owners

* add marius

This change introduces garbage collection for the light client. Historical
chain data is deleted periodically. If you want to disable the GC, use
the --light.nopruning flag.

This is a resubmit of ledgerwatch/turbo-geth#556. The performance
benefit of this change is negligible, but it does remove a TODO.

Reverting because this change started handling account balances as
uint64 in the transaction pool, which is incorrect.

This reverts commit af5c97ae.

This fixes two issues with state sync restarts:

When sync restarts with a new root, some peers can have in-flight requests.
Since all peers with active requests were marked idle when exiting sync,
the new sync would schedule more requests for those peers. When the
response for the earlier request arrived, the new sync would reject it and
mark the peer idle again, rendering the peer useless until it disconnected.

The other issue was that peers would not be marked idle when they had
delivered a response, but the response hadn't been processed before
restarting the state sync. This also made the peer useless because it
would be permanently marked busy.

This adds a test suite for discovery v4. The test suite is a port of the Hive suite for
discovery, and will replace the current suite on Hive soon-ish. The tests can be
run locally with this command:

Changes include:
* Updates response docs for `account_new`, `account_list`, `account_signTransaction`
* Removes `account_import`, `account_export` docs
* Adds `account_version` docs
* Updates request docs for `ui_approveListing`, `ui_approveSignData`, `ui_showInfo`, `ui_showError`, `ui_onApprovedTx`
* Adds `ui_approveNewAccount`, `ui_onInputRequired` docs

This change further improves the performance of RLP encoding by removing
allocations for big.Int and [...]byte types. I have added a new benchmark
that measures RLP encoding of types.Block to verify that performance is
improved.
