Since these types were written, we've gained an executable spec:
https://github.com/ethereum/execution-specs
This PR aligns some of the types we use with this spec to simplify
comparisons and cross-referencing.
Using a `distinct` type is a tradeoff between nim ergonomics, type
safety and the ability to work around nim quirks and stdlib weaknesses.
In particular, it allows us to overload common functions such as `hash`
with correct and performant versions as well as maintain control over
string conversions etc at the cost of a little bit of ceremony when
instantiating them.
Apart from distinct byte types, `Hash32`, is introduced in lieu of the
existing `Hash256`, again aligning this commonly used type with the spec
which picks bytes rather than bits in the name.

Currently only setting `--styleCheck:hint` as there are some
dependency fixes required and the compiler seems to trip over the
findnode MessageKind, findnode Message field and the findNode
proc. Also over protocol.Protocol usage.
This removes the outdated copy of the SSZ code. It became incorrect
over time (e.g., empty SSZ list elements), and is no longer in use by
GitHub projects: https://github.com/search?q=extension%3Anim+eth%2Fssz
The canonical SSZ implementation resides at `nim-ssz-serialization`.
Compared to `nim-eth`, these changes were made meanwhile:
- `bitseqs` was extended with JSON serialization support,
and with the new functions `isZero` and `countOnes`.
- `bytes_reader` was renamed to `codec`, extended with a few additional
SSZ type conversions as well as support for `SingleMemberUnion`.
- The simplified merkle tree implementation in `merkle_tree.nim`
was removed. It was not used by other projects.
- `merkleization` was extended with support for `HashArray`, `HashList`
and `SingleMemberUnion`. The `isValidProof` functionality has been
moved to `nimbus-eth2` and replaced with the EF defined function
`is_valid_merkle_branch`. The test was also moved to `nimbus-eth2`.
There are no other GitHub projects using `isValidProof`:
https://github.com/search?q=extension%3Anim+isValidProof
Furthermore, a definition for `GeneralizedIndex` was added.
- `ssz_serialization` was moved one directory up, and improved with
bug fixes and `HashArray`, `HashList` and `SingleMemberUnion` support.
- `types` was extended with JSON serialization and new type support for
`Uint128`, `Uint256`, `HashArray`, `HashList` and `SingleMemberUnion`.
There is also a new `getBit` function for `BitList`.

It's been confirmed that the test fails if the Kademlia crash workaround isn't
in `findNode`, and passes with it there.
