* Fix a couple of typos
* Retry failed PVF execution
PVF execution that fails due to AmbiguousWorkerDeath should be retried once.
This should reduce the occurrence of failures due to transient conditions.
Closes#6195
* Address a couple of nits
* Write tests; refactor (add `validate_candidate_with_retry`)
* Update node/core/candidate-validation/src/lib.rs

The PVF host is designed to avoid spawning tasks to minimize knowledge
of outer code. Using `async_std::task::spawn` (or Tokio's counterpart)
deemed unacceptable, `SpawnNamed` undesirable. Instead there is only one
task returned that is spawned by the candidate-validation subsystem.
The tasks from the sub-components are polled by that root task.
However, the way the tasks are bundled was incorrect. There was a giant
select that was polling those tasks. Particularly, that implies that as soon as
one of the arms of that select goes into await those sub-tasks stop
getting polled. This is a recipe for a deadlock which indeed happened
here.
Specifically, the deadlock happened during sending messages to the
execute queue by calling
[`send_execute`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/blob/a68d9be35656dcd96e378fd9dd3d613af754d48a/node/core/pvf/src/host.rs#L601).
When the channel to the queue reaches the capacity, the control flow is
suspended until the queue handles those messages. Since this code is
essentially reached from [one of the select
arms](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/blob/a68d9be35656dcd96e378fd9dd3d613af754d48a/node/core/pvf/src/host.rs#L371),
the queue won't be given the control and thus no further progress can be
made.
This problem is solved by bundling the tasks one level higher instead,
by `selecting` over those long-running tasks.
We also stop treating returning from those long-running tasks as error
conditions, since that can happen during legit shutdown.

We wanted to change niceness to accomodate the fact that some of the
preparation tasks are low priority. For example, when a node sees that
there is a new para was onboarded the node may start preparing right
away. Since all other activities are more important, such as network I/O
or validation of the backed candidates and preparation of the
immediatelly needed PVFs.
However, it turned out that this approach does not work: generally
non-root processes can only decrease niceness and they cannot increase
it to the previous value, as was assumed by the code.
Apart from that, https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/pull/4123
assumes all PVFs are prepared in the same way. Specifically, that if a
PVF preparation failed before, then PVF pre-checking will also report
that it was failed, even though it could happen that preparation failed
due to being low-priority. In order to avoid such cases, we decided to
simplify the whole preparation model. Preparation under low priority
does not work well with that.
Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/issues/4520
