This implements transactional support for ProofRecorder. A transaction can be started with start_transaction and then later commited or rolled back. This is important for block producers to not include data from transactions that didn't make it to the block, because they e.g. panicked or similar.

Closes: #10222

I'm not familiar with this part of the codebase enough to approve, but left some comments.

Maybe a log error message would be reasonable? Otherwise we can silently skip API misuses.

I thought of returning an error as well as we do it in OverlayedChanges. However, I'm not really sure that there is any benefit in it? Even if some calls all the time rollback, nothing breaks? No assumption is broken or similar.

I was thinking about getting some information if higher level are not calling start and rollback/commit in pairs (e.g. due to some error in logic). W/o error message this case will be silently skipped (maybe making future debugging more tricky).

If this is a conscious design decision that rollback/commit can be called w/o matching start than it is also OK.

Logging error could be some compromise between silently ignoring this case and returning the error.

But maybe my reasoning is too defensive here.

There is an assumption that lenght of *_transactions are equal. How about adding assertion here?

I mean both walk in lockstep, but there is no assumption that both have the same length? We never access anything from one to the other assuming that the same index exists there as well.

I meant silent assumption - at the end both vecs should have the length of number of transactions, it should never happen that one contains more then other. Assert would be more expressive way to indicate this bound. It would also help if some modifies the code (e.g. return early from rollback/commit_transaction).

Anyway, feel free to ignore it.

Do we need this condition?
When execute ReadAndPanic(10) we expect to do 10 reads and then panic right? If we are only able to do 5 reads it looks from the outside as if everything is ok, but something unexpected happened.

Yes we need this.

The docs explicitly mention this:

/// Read X times from the state some data and then panic!
///
/// Returns `Ok` if it didn't read anything.

The point is that you expect it to fail and if it doesn't fail, you know that something didn't work as expected.
