Working towards migrating the `parity-bridges-common` repo inside
`polkadot-sdk`. This PR upgrades some dependencies in order to align
them with the versions used in `parity-bridges-common`

This PR aims to channel the backpressure of the PVF host's preparation
and execution queues to the candidate validation subsystem consumers.

This tool makes it easy to run parachain consensus stress/performance
testing on your development machine or in CI.
## Motivation
The parachain consensus node implementation spans across many modules
which we call subsystems. Each subsystem is responsible for a small part
of logic of the parachain consensus pipeline, but in general the most
load and performance issues are localized in just a few core subsystems
like `availability-recovery`, `approval-voting` or
`dispute-coordinator`. In the absence of such a tool, we would run large
test nets to load/stress test these parts of the system. Setting up and
making sense of the amount of data produced by such a large test is very
expensive, hard to orchestrate and is a huge development time sink.
## PR contents
- CLI tool
- Data Availability Read test
- reusable mockups and components needed so far
- Documentation on how to get started
### Data Availability Read test
An overseer is built with using a real `availability-recovery` susbsytem
instance while dependent subsystems like `av-store`, `network-bridge`
and `runtime-api` are mocked. The network bridge will emulate all the
network peers and their answering to requests.
The test is going to be run for a number of blocks. For each block it
will generate send a “RecoverAvailableData” request for an arbitrary
number of candidates. We wait for the subsystem to respond to all
requests before moving to the next block.
At the same time we collect the usual subsystem metrics and task CPU
metrics and show some nice progress reports while running.
### Here is how the CLI looks like:

We currently use a bit of a hack in `.cargo/config` to make sure that
clippy isn't too annoying by specifying the list of lints.
There is now a stable way to define lints for a workspace. The only down
side is that every crate seems to have to opt into this so there's a
*few* files modified in this PR.
Dependencies:
- [x] PR that upgrades CI to use rust 1.74 is merged.

This PR addresses multiple issues pending:
* [x] Update orchestra to the recent version and test how the node
performs
* [x] Add some useful metrics for outbound network bridge
* [x] Try to send incoming network requests to all subsystems without
blocking on some particular subsystem in that loop
* [x] Fix all incompatibilities between orchestra and polkadot code
(e.g. malus node)
* polkadot: propagate UnpinHandle to ActiveLeafUpdate
Also extract the leaf creation for tests
into a common function.
* dispute-coordinator: try pinned blocks for slashin
* apparently 1.72 is smarter than 1.70
* address nits
* rename fresh_leaf to new_leaf
* Rename `polkadot-parachain` to `polkadot-parachain-primitives`
While doing this it also fixes some last `rustdoc` issues and fixes
another Cargo warning related to `pallet-paged-list`.
* Fix compilation
* ".git/.scripts/commands/fmt/fmt.sh"
* Fix XCM docs

* Don't pass initial set of leaves to Overseer
* Fix compilation error in subsystem-test-helpers
* rust 1.64 enables workspace properties

* westend: update transaction version
* polkadot: update transaction version
* kusama: update transaction version
* Bump spec_version to 9330
* bump versions to 0.9.33
* Change best effort queue behaviour in `dispute-coordinator`
Use the same type of queue (`BTreeMap<CandidateComparator,
ParticipationRequest>`) for best effort and priority in
`dispute-coordinator`.
Rework `CandidateComparator` to handle unavailable parent
block numbers.
Best effort queue will order disputes the same way as priority does - by
parent's block height. Disputes on candidates for which the parent's
block number can't be obtained will be treated with the lowest priority.
* Fix tests: Handle `ChainApiMessage::BlockNumber` in `handle_sync_queries`
* Some tests are deadlocking on sending messages via overseer so change `SingleItemSink`to `mpsc::Sender` with a buffer of 1
* Fix a race in test after adding a buffered queue for overseer messages
* Fix the rest of the tests
* Guide update - best-effort queue
* Guide update: clarification about spam votes
* Fix tests in `availability-distribution`
* Update comments
* Add `make_buffered_subsystem_context` in `subsystem-test-helpers`
* Code review feedback
* Code review feedback
* Code review feedback
* Don't add best effort candidate if it is already in priority queue

* Bump spec_version to 9280 for polkadot
* Bump spec_version to 9280 for rococo
