Smart rollup node: Context garbage collection

Victor Dumitrescu requested to merge vdum@gc_rollup_context into master

Context

This MR enables garbage collection for the context of the rollup node. In doing so, it introduces 2 new node parameters, which can be set through command line arguments:

  • GC retention period: how many L2 blocks the node always needs to keep. The default is 2x the refutation window on Mainnet and it can only be overridden with a larger value. After review, the number of blocks to keep in the default operating mode is based around the lcc. A retention period argument will be introduced in a later MR which implements history modes.
  • GC frequency: number of blocks between GC runs. The default is 100.

Manually testing the MR

dune exec tezt/tests/main.exe -- rollup_node gc
