The previous implemention of hybrid set testing, which was entirely my
own creation, was a bit peculiar, and I think this probably clears thins up.
The previous implementation had far fewer legacy nodes in hybrid
networks, *and* also for some reason that I can't quite explain,
caused a test case to fail.
This is just a configuration change to default to using the new stack
unless explicitly disabled (e.g. `UseLegacy`) this renames the
configuration value and makes the configuration logic more clear.
The legacy option is good to retain as a fallback if the new stack has
issues operationally, but we should make sure that most of the time
we're using the new stack.
In the transaction load generator, the e2e test harness previously distributed load randomly to hosts, which was a source of test non-determinism. This change distributes the load generation to the different nodes in the set in a round robin fashion, to produce more reliable results, but does not otherwise change the behavior of the test harness.

- replace `MaxReconnectAttempts`, `ReadWait`, `WriteWait` and `PingPeriod` options with `WSOptions` in `WSClient` (rpc/jsonrpc/client/ws_client.go).
- set default write wait to 10s for `WSClient`(rpc/jsonrpc/client/ws_client.go)
- unexpose `WSEvents`(rpc/client/http.go)
Closes#6162
* Don't use state sync for nodes starting at initial height.
* Also remove stopped containers when cleaning up.
* Start nodes in order of startAt, mode, name to avoid full nodes starting before their seeds.
* Tweak network waiting to avoid halts caused by validator changes and perturbations.
* Disable most tests for seed nodes, which aren't always able to join consensus.
* Disable `blockchain/v2` due to known bugs.
In #5488 the E2E testnet generator changed to setting explicit `StartAt` heights for initial nodes. This broke the runner, which expected all initial nodes to have `StartAt: 0`, as well as validator set scheduling in the generator. Testnet loading now normalizes initial nodes to have `StartAt: 0`.
This also tweaks waiting for misbehavior heights to only use an additional wait if there actually is any misbehavior in the testnet, and to output information when waiting.
Closes#5291. Adds a randomized testnet generator. Nightly CI job will be submitted separately. A few of the testnets can be a bit flaky, even after disabling known-faulty behavior and making minor tweaks, and the larger networks may be too resource-intensive to run in CI - this will be optimized separately.
