What changed

Add the ChainSync workspace crate and confirmed HTTP account fetches with ordered results, explicit absence, compressed decoding, and provider failover that preserves the freshness floor.

Closes #1722

Reviewer notes

Response context slots identify the confirmed bank used for the fetch, not each account's last modification. The fetcher stays private until service assembly; it does not acquire leases, establish subscriptions, or apply account images. Validator consumers still use Chainlink.

📝 Walkthrough

The pull request adds the magicblock-chainsync workspace crate. It defines shared JSON-RPC account types and decoding, and adds an HTTP fetcher that returns account snapshots with response slots, preserves minimum-context requirements across retries, and classifies fetch outcomes.

Changes: ChainSync HTTP snapshots

Layer / File(s) Summary
RPC contracts and crate setup
Cargo.toml, chainsync/Cargo.toml, chainsync/src/lib.rs, chainsync/src/rpc/*
The workspace includes the new crate and zstd dependency. The crate defines JSON-RPC request and response types, confirmed account configuration, and base64+zstd account decoding.
HTTP snapshot fetching
chainsync/src/http/*, chainsync/src/metrics.rs, chainsync/README.md
The fetcher requests confirmed account snapshots from configured providers. It retains the required minimum context slot across retries, preserves account order and null entries, and returns the response context slot. HTTP errors receive retry classifications and outcome labels. Metrics record operation durations and HTTP attempt outcomes.
Snapshot tests and transport fixtures
chainsync/src/http/tests.rs, chainsync/tests/transport/*
Tests cover retry freshness, null alignment, chain-slot watermark behavior, and malformed responses. Shared fixtures provide scripted HTTP requests and snapshot responses.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Reject an empty provider list in Fetcher::new.

Fetcher::new accepts an empty providers vector. In that case, available evaluates self.cursor.fetch_add(1, Relaxed) % len at Line 133 with len == 0. That operation panics with a division by zero on the first fetch call, so the configuration error appears as a runtime panic instead of an error from new. Validate the list in new and return an error.

🌐 Web query:

official Solana getMultipleAccounts minContextSlot response context slot contract

💡 Result:

**Contract:** `minContextSlot` is an optional request-config field for `getMultipleAccounts`. The official docs list it, but don’t define its behavior on this method page. The response is an `RpcResponse` with `context` and `value`; the example shows `context.slot`. ([solana.com](https://solana.com/docs/rpc/http/getmultipleaccounts))

So, don’t interpret `minContextSlot` as a promise that the response’s `context.slot` equals that number—or as a request to read *exactly* at that slot. The page does not specify that guarantee or spell out what happens if the node cannot meet the minimum. It establishes only that the field is accepted and that the response includes context. ([solana.com](https://solana.com/docs/rpc/http/getmultipleaccounts))

Reject responses below the freshness floor.

Fetcher::fetch sends min_ctx_slot, but attempt accepts any successful context.slot. When a provider returns context.slot < min_ctx_slot, the Ok(snapshot) branch returns that stale snapshot without retrying or rejecting it.
