Remove the requirement on `GetNodeBlockType` and `GetRuntimeBlockType`. Actually this wasn't already used anymore and only referenced in tests.
Substrate runtime api
The Substrate runtime api is the crucial interface between the node and the runtime.
Every call that goes into the runtime is done with a runtime api. The runtime apis are not fixed.
Every Substrate user can define its own apis with
decl_runtime_apis and implement them in
the runtime with impl_runtime_apis.
Every Substrate runtime needs to implement the [Core] runtime api. This api provides the basic
functionality that every runtime needs to export.
Besides the macros and the [Core] runtime api, this crates provides the [Metadata] runtime
api, the [ApiExt] trait, the [CallApiAt] trait and the [ConstructRuntimeApi] trait.
On a meta level this implies, the client calls the generated API from the client perspective.
