Make BlockImport and Verifier async (#8472)

* Make grandpa work

* Introduce `SharedData`

* Add test and fix bugs

* Switch to `SharedData`

* Make grandpa tests working

* More Babe work

* Make it async

* Fix fix

* Use `async_trait` in sc-consensus-slots

This makes the code a little bit easier to read and also expresses that
there can always only be one call at a time to `on_slot`.

* Make grandpa tests compile

* More Babe tests work

* Fix network test

* Start fixing service test

* Finish service-test

* Fix sc-consensus-aura

* Fix fix fix

* More fixes

* Make everything compile *yeah*

* Fix build when we have Rust 1.51

* Update client/consensus/common/src/shared_data.rs

/// When working with consensus engines there is often data that needs to be shared between multiple

///
/// The pain point when sharing this data is often the usage of mutex guards in an async context as
/// this doesn't work for most of them as these guards don't implement `Send`. This abstraction
/// provides a way to lock the shared data, while not having the mutex locked. So, the data stays
/// locked and we are still able to hold this lock over an `await` call.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
///# use sc_consensus::shared_data::SharedData;
///
/// let shared_data = SharedData::new(String::from("hello world"));
///
/// let lock = shared_data.shared_data_locked();
///
/// let shared_data2 = shared_data.clone();
/// let join_handle1 = std::thread::spawn(move || {
/// // This will need to wait for the outer lock to be released before it can access the data.
/// shared_data2.shared_data().push_str("1");
/// });
///
/// assert_eq!(*lock, "hello world");
///
/// // Let us release the mutex, but we still keep it locked.
/// // Now we could call `await` for example.
/// let mut lock = lock.release_mutex();
///
/// let shared_data2 = shared_data.clone();
/// let join_handle2 = std::thread::spawn(move || {
/// shared_data2.shared_data().push_str("2");

/// // We still have the lock and can upgrade it to access the data.
/// assert_eq!(*lock.upgrade(), "hello world");
/// lock.upgrade().push_str("3");

/// join_handle2.join().unwrap();
