Liam Aharon 46090ff114 Unbalanced and Balanced fungible conformance tests, and fungible fixes (#1296)
Original PR https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/14655

---

Partial https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/225

- [x] Adds conformance tests for Unbalanced
- [x] Adds conformance tests for Balanced
- Several minor fixes to fungible default implementations and the
Balances pallet
- [x] `Unbalanced::decrease_balance` can reap account when
`Preservation` is `Preserve`
- [x] `Balanced::pair` can return pairs of imbalances which do not
cancel each other out
   - [x] Balances pallet `active_issuance` 'underflow'
- [x] Refactors the conformance test file structure to match the
fungible file structure: tests for traits in regular.rs go into a test
file named regular.rs, tests for traits in freezes.rs go into a test
file named freezes.rs, etc.
 - [x] Improve doc comments
 - [x] Simplify macros

## Fixes

### `Unbalanced::decrease_balance` can reap account when called with
`Preservation::Preserve`
There is a potential issue in the default implementation of
`Unbalanced::decrease_balance`. The implementation can delete an account
even when it is called with `preservation: Preservation::Preserve`. This
seems to contradict the documentation of `Preservation::Preserve`:

```rust
	/// The account may not be killed and our provider reference must remain (in the context of
	/// tokens, this means that the account may not be dusted).
	Preserve,
```

I updated `Unbalanced::decrease_balance` to return
`Err(TokenError::BelowMinimum)` when a withdrawal would cause the
account to be reaped and `preservation: Preservation::Preserve`.

- [ ] TODO Confirm with @gavofyork that this is correct behavior

Test for this behavior:


https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/e5c876dd6b59e2b7dbacaa4538cb42c802db3730/substrate/frame/support/src/traits/tokens/fungible/conformance_tests/regular.rs#L912-L937

### `Balanced::pair` returning non-canceling pairs

`Balanced::pair` is supposed to create a pair of imbalances that cancel
each other out. However this is not the case when the method is called
with an amount greater than the total supply.

In the existing default implementation, `Balanced::pair` creates a pair
by first rescinding the balance, creating `Debt`, and then issuing the
balance, creating `Credit`.

When creating `Debt`, if the amount to create exceeds the
`total_supply`, `total_supply` units of `Debt` are created *instead* of
`amount` units of `Debt`. This can lead to non-canceling amount of
`Credit` and `Debt` being created.

To address this, I create the credit and debt directly in the method
instead of calling `issue` and `rescind`.

Test for this behavior:


https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/e5c876dd6b59e2b7dbacaa4538cb42c802db3730/substrate/frame/support/src/traits/tokens/fungible/conformance_tests/regular.rs#L1323-L1346

### `Balances` pallet `active_issuance` 'underflow'

This PR resolves an issue in the `Balances` pallet that can lead to odd
behavior of `active_issuance`.

Currently, the Balances pallet doesn't check if `InactiveIssuance`
remains less than or equal to `TotalIssuance` when supply is
deactivated. This allows `InactiveIssuance` to be greater than
`TotalIssuance`, which can result in unexpected behavior from the
perspective of the fungible API.

`active_issuance` is derived from
`TotalIssuance.saturating_sub(InactiveIssuance)`.

If an `amount` is deactivated that causes `InactiveIssuance` to become
greater TotalIssuance, `active_issuance` will return 0. However once in
that state, reactivating an amount will not increase `active_issuance`
by the reactivated `amount` as expected.

Consider this test where the last assertion would fail due to this
issue:


https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/e5c876dd6b59e2b7dbacaa4538cb42c802db3730/substrate/frame/support/src/traits/tokens/fungible/conformance_tests/regular.rs#L1036-L1071

To address this, I've modified the `deactivate` function to ensure
`InactiveIssuance` never surpasses `TotalIssuance`.

Substrate is a next-generation framework for blockchain innovation 🚀.

Getting Started

Head to docs.substrate.io and follow the installation instructions. Then try out one of the tutorials. Refer to the Docker instructions to quickly run Substrate, Substrate Node Template, Subkey, or to build a chain spec.

Community & Support

Join the highly active and supportive community on the Substrate Stack Exchange to ask questions about use and problems you run into using this software. Please do report bugs and issues here for anything you suspect requires action in the source.

Contributions & Code of Conduct

Please follow the contributions guidelines as outlined in docs/contributor/CONTRIBUTING.md. In all communications and contributions, this project follows the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct.

Security

The security policy and procedures can be found in docs/contributor/SECURITY.md.

License

The reason for the split-licensing is to ensure that for the vast majority of teams using Substrate to create feature-chains, then all changes can be made entirely in Apache2-licensed code, allowing teams full freedom over what and how they release and giving licensing clarity to commercial teams.

In the interests of the community, we require any deeper improvements made to Substrate's core logic (e.g. Substrate's internal consensus, crypto or database code) to be contributed back so everyone can benefit.
