Starting from Go1.14 defer is no longer slow:
https://golang.org/doc/go1.14#runtime

There are changes in pt table and in a way last TID/OID are queried.

This corresponds to NEO/py commit b3dd6973 ("Optimize resumption of
replication by starting from a greater TID").

This protocol version corresponds to protocol version used by NEO/py v1.10.

The protocol definition was updated to match that NEO/py release in
the previous patches.

This corresponds to NEO/py commit 97af23cc (Maximize resiliency by
taking into account the topology of storage nodes).

- Rename GetObject .Tid    -> .Before
- Rename GetObject .Serial -> .At
- Sync docstrings

This corresponds to NEO/py commit 9f0f2afe (protocol: update packet
docstrings).

This corresponds to NEO/py commit 52db5607 ("protocol: a single byte is
more than enough to encode enums").

Don't skip a code when going request1->request2 through `Request1
Answer1 Request2`. For example before this patch:

	1		RequestIdentification
	1 | answerBit	AcceptIdentification
	3		Ping
	3 | answerBit	Pong
	...

after this patch:

	1		RequestIdentification
	1 | answerBit	AcceptIdentification
	2		Ping
	2 | answerBit	Pong
	...

This corresponds to NEO/py commit a00ab78b ("protocol: small cleanup in
packet registration").

Corresponds to NEO/py commit b3dd6973 ("Optimize resumption of
replication by starting from a greater TID").

Corresponds to NEO/py commit 3efbbfe3 ("master: automatically discard
feeding cells that get out-of-date").

For example NEOCluster needs to shutdown gracefully, else there are
processes left for e.g. storage nodes and they dump somthing as below on
the terminal after tests completion:

    === RUN   TestLoad

    WARNING: This is not the recommended way to import data to NEO: you should use the Importer backend instead.
    NEO also does not implement IStorageRestoreable interface, which means that undo information is not preserved when using this tool: conflict resolution could happen when undoing an old transaction.
