Currently the polkadot node will backoff from block authoring if
finality starts lagging. This PR disables this mechanism on production
networks (polkadot and kusama) and adds a flags to optionally force
enabling it.

Could potentially be helpful to preserving caches when applicable, as
discussed in #685

This pull request is removing the Kusama and Polkadot runtime crates. As
still some crates dependent on the runtime crates, this pull request is
doing some more changes.
- It removes the `hostperfcheck` CLI command. This CLI command could
compare the current node against the standard hardware by doing some
checks. Later we added the hardware benchmark feature to Substrate. This
hardware benchmark is running on every node startup and prints a warning
if the current node is too slow. This makes this CLI command a duplicate
that was also depending on the kusama runtime.
- The pull request is removing the emulated integration tests that were
requiring the Kusama or Polkadot runtime crates.
This pull request removes the Polkadot and Kusama native runtime from
the polkadot node. This brings some implications with it:
There are no more kusama/polkadot-dev chain specs available. We will
need to write some tooling in the fellowship repo to provide them
easily.
The try-runtime job for polkadot & kusama is not available anymore as we
don't have the dev chain specs anymore.
Certain benchmarking commands will also not work until we migrate them
to use a runtime api.
Some crates in utils are still depending on the polkadot/kusama native
runtime that will also need to be fixed.

Since these keys are only used for development/local chains, also publish
the secret seeds used to generate the public keys, so that developers can
recover/generate the private key pairs if needed.

* Remove superflous parameter `overseer_enable_anyways`
We don't need this flag, as we don't need the overseer enabled when the
node isn't a collator or validator.
* Rename `IsCollator` to `IsParachainNode`
`IsParachainNode` is more expressive and also encapsulates the state of
the parachain node being a full node. Some functionality like the
overseer needs to run always when the node runs alongside a parachain
node. The parachain node needs the overseer to e.g. recover PoVs. Other
things like candidate validation or pvf checking are only required for
when the node is running as validator.

* Make a bunch of fixes
* Rebuild nodes on version change
* Fix more issues
* Fix tests
* Pass node version from node into dependencies to avoid recompiles
- [X] get version in CLI
- [X] pass it in to service
- [X] pass version along to PVF
- [X] remove rerun from service
- [X] add rerun to CLI
- [X] don’t rerun pvf/worker’s (these should be built by nodes which have rerun enabled)
* Some more improvements for smoother tests
- [X] Fix tests
- [X] Make puppet workers pass None for version and remove rerun
- [X] Make test collators self-contained
* Add back rerun to PVF workers
* Move worker binaries into files in cli crate
As a final optimization I've separated out each worker binary from its own crate
into the CLI crate. Before, the worker bin shared a crate with the worker lib,
so when the binaries got recompiled so did the libs and everything transitively
depending on the libs. This commit fixes this regression that was causing
recompiles after every commit.
* Fix bug (was passing worker version for node version)
* Move workers out of cli into root src/bin/ dir

* Implement runtime apis for fake runtime
These runtime api implementations are only used to make the compiler
think that we have implemented all required runtime apis. They will not
be called as we switch the executor to `WasmExecutor`. In the near
future we will not require these fake implementations anymore after
Substrate has shifted away from this compile time requirement.
This brings us the advantage that the `polkadot-service` doesn't need to
depend on the runtimes for getting the `RuntimeApi` type.
It also removes around 1min of build time on my machine ;)

We consider BEEFY mature enough to run by default on all nodes
for test networks (Rococo/Wococo/Versi).
Right now, most nodes are not running it since it's opt-in using
--beefy flag. Switch to an opt-out model for test networks.
Replace --beefy flag from CLI with --no-beefy and have BEEFY
client start by default on test networks.
