Proposed Changes
Implements the relevant parts of EIP-7916 (
ProgressiveBitList).This is done by adding
Progressiveas an availableBitfieldBehaviouroption.Encoding/decoding behaviour is identical to
Bitfield<Variable<N>>so there is some code duplciation. We could consider defining a shared trait for both variable length behaviours and deduplicate this.Progressive merkleization will be implemented in
tree_hashcrate, this PR just defines these types which we become implementation targets laterReference
