This PR should supersede
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2814 and accomplish the
same with less changes. It's needed to run sync strategies in parallel,
like running `ChainSync` and `GapSync` as independent strategies, and
running `ChainSync` and Sync 2.0 alongside each other.
The difference with https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2814
is that we allow simultaneous requests to remote peers initiated by
different strategies, as this is not tracked on the remote node in any
way. Therefore, `PeerPool` is not needed.

This is a rather big change in jsonrpsee, the major things in this bump
are:
- Server backpressure (the subscription impls are modified to deal with
that)
- Allow custom error types / return types (remove jsonrpsee::core::Error
and jsonrpee::core::CallError)
- Bug fixes (graceful shutdown in particular not used by substrate
anyway)
- Less dependencies for the clients in particular
- Return type requires Clone in method call responses
- Moved to tokio channels
- Async subscription API (not used in this PR)
Major changes in this PR:
- The subscriptions are now bounded and if subscription can't keep up
with the server it is dropped
- CLI: add parameter to configure the jsonrpc server bounded message
buffer (default is 64)
- Add our own subscription helper to deal with the unbounded streams in
substrate
The most important things in this PR to review is the added helpers
functions in `substrate/client/rpc/src/utils.rs` and the rest is pretty
much chore.
Regarding the "bounded buffer limit" it may cause the server to handle
the JSON-RPC calls
slower than before.
The message size limit is bounded by "--rpc-response-size" thus "by
default 10MB * 64 = 640MB"
but the subscription message size is not covered by this limit and could
be capped as well.
Hopefully the last release prior to 1.0, sorry in advance for a big PR

Extract `WarpSync` (and `StateSync` as part of warp sync) from
`ChainSync` as independent syncing strategy called by `SyncingEngine`.
Introduce `SyncingStrategy` enum as a proxy between `SyncingEngine` and
specific syncing strategies.
## Limitations
Gap sync is kept in `ChainSync` for now because it shares the same set
of peers as block syncing implementation in `ChainSync`. Extraction of a
common context responsible for peer management in syncing strategies
able to run in parallel is planned for a follow-up PR.
## Further improvements
A possibility of conversion of `SyncingStartegy` into a trait should be
evaluated. The main stopper for this is that different strategies need
to communicate different actions to `SyncingEngine` and respond to
different events / provide different APIs (e.g., requesting
justifications is only possible via `ChainSync` and not through
`WarpSync`; `SendWarpProofRequest` action is only relevant to
`WarpSync`, etc.)
