…mber, not slot When the sequencer locally proposed block N at slot S1 and L1 mined a different block N at slot S2, pruneMismatchingLocalBlocks filtered by slot and missed the conflict, so the local block (and its contract data) was never pruned. The subsequent re-apply of L1's block N then threw "Contract instance ... already exists" and the archiver's serial queue got stuck retrying. Fixed by reconciling on blockNumber. The per-checkpoint trailing prune remains scoped by slot so speculative blocks at later slots (which may belong to a pending proposed checkpoint) are preserved. Also evict pending proposed checkpoints that referenced pruned blocks so they do not dangle after a conflict prune. Regression tests added in data_store_updater.test.ts.

Motivation
When the sequencer locally proposed block N at slot S1 and L1 mined a different block N at slot S2 (same block number, different slot), the archiver's reconciliation in
pruneMismatchingLocalBlocksjoined local↔checkpoint blocks by slot and missed the conflict. The local block was never pruned and the subsequent re-apply of L1's block N threwContract instance ... already exists, cannot add again at block N. The archiver's serial queue then retried in a loop and wedged the data store — this is the cause of the e2e flake atyarn-project/end-to-end/src/composed/ha/e2e_ha_full.test.ts:693.Approach
pruneMismatchingLocalBlocksnow keys conflict detection onblockNumberonly, so a same-number-different-slot block is correctly detected as a conflict and pruned. The per-checkpoint trailing prune (which handles "local has extra blocks at the same slot as the published checkpoint") stays scoped by slot so speculative blocks at later slots that belong to a pending proposed checkpoint are preserved — this keeps the pipelining model inpromoteProposedToCheckpointedintact. After any prune, pending proposed checkpoints from the offending checkpoint number onwards are evicted so they do not dangle while referencing removed blocks.Changes
pruneMismatchingLocalBlocksjoins byblockNumberonly; trailing slot-scoped prune unchanged; newevictProposedCheckpointsForPrunedBlockshelper clears stale pending proposed checkpoints after a prune.data_store_updater.test.tscovering the e2e_ha scenario, the prune-by-number path without contract data, pipelining preservation, and eviction of higher-numbered proposed checkpoints chaining off pruned blocks.
