…nown ports (#5607)

* updates mod docs for tests that use future blocks

* updates submitblock test to use TestType methods

* prunes redundant code

* adds check_sync_logs_until

* adds assertion for needs cached state & rpc server

* updates get_raw_future_blocks fn with rpc calls

* updates to get_raw_future_blocks fn and submit_block test

* Rename LightwalletdTestType to TestType

* moves TestType and random_known_rpc_port_config to test_type.rs and config.rs

* moves get_raw_future_blocks to cached_state.rs

* updates ci workflows to include submit block test

* adds get_future_blocks fn and uses it in load_transactions_from_future_blocks

* updates CI docker

* Apply suggestions from code review

+/// ## Usage

+/// between this fn call and binding the tcp listener.

+/// If the OS finds no available ports
