## Description
Since events are not hashed into the header they can be non deterministic. Changing an event is not consensus breaking. Will update docs in the spec
time_iota_ms is intended to ensure that an honest validator always generates timestamps
with time increasing monotonically. For this purpose, it always suffices to have this parameter
set to `1ms`. Allowing users to choose different numbers increases bug surface area.
Thus the code now ignores the user provided time_iota_ms parameter (marking it as unused),
and uses 1ms internally.

Check block protocol version in header validate basic.
I tried searching for where we check the P2P protocol version but was unable to find it. When we check compatibility with a node we check we both have the same block protocol and are on the same network, but we do not check if we are on the same P2P protocol. It makes sense if there is a handshake change because we would not be able to establish a secure connection, but a p2p protocol version bump may be because of a p2p message change, which would go unnoticed until that message is sent over the wire. Is this purposeful?
Closes: #4790
## Description
This PR aims to make the crypto.PubKey interface more intuitive.
Changes:
- `VerfiyBytes` -> `VerifySignature`
Before `Bytes()` was amino encoded, now since it is the byte representation should we get rid of it entirely?
EDIT: decided to keep `Bytes()` as it is useful if you are using the interface instead of the concrete key
Closes: #XXX
Adds a genesis parameter `initial_height` which specifies the initial block height, as well as ABCI `RequestInitChain.InitialHeight` to pass it to the ABCI application, and `State.InitialHeight` to keep track of the initial height throughout the code. Fixes#2543, based on [RFC-002](https://github.com/tendermint/spec/pull/119). Spec changes in https://github.com/tendermint/spec/pull/135.
Fixes#5192.
@liamsi Can you verify that the test vectors match the Rust implementation? I updated `ProofsFromByteSlices()` as well, anything else that should be updated?
Solves #5138 in the way that if a validatorSet is nil or empty it will not try to transform it to protobug

ValidateBasic() for PotentialAmnesiaEvidence checks that the rounds of the two votes are different and does not check Vote Type
ValidateBasic() now also ensures that the first block is not a nil block (else the validator hasn't actually locked onto a block)
