Aristo db refactor tx paradim (#1674) * Better error handling why: Bail out on some error as early as possible before any changes. * Implement `fetch()` as opposite of `merge()` rationale: In the `Aristo` realm, the action named `fetch()` and `merge()` indicate leaf value related actions on the MPT, while actions `get()` and `put()` handle vertex or hash key related operations that constitute the MPT. * Re-factor `merge()` prototypes why: The most used variant of `merge()` should have the simplest prototype. * Persistent DB constructor needs to import `aristo/aristo_init/persistent` why: Most applications use memory DB anyway. This avoids linking `-lrocksdb` or any other back end libraries by default. * Re-factor transaction module why: Got the paradigm wrong. The transaction descriptor did replace the database one but should be handled separately.

Aristo db implement filter storage scheduler (#1713) * Rename FilterID => QueueID why: The current usage does not identify a particular filter but uses it as storage tag to manage it on the database (to be organised in a set of FIFOs or queues.) * Split `aristo_filter` source into sub-files why: Make space for filter management API * Store filter queue IDs in pairs on the backend why: Any pair will will describe a FIFO accessed by bottom/top IDs * Reorg some source file names why: The "aristo_" prefix for make local/private files is tedious to use, so removed. * Implement filter slot scheduler details: Filters will be stored on the database on cascaded FIFOs. When a FIFO queue is full, some filter items are bundled together and stored on the next FIFO.

Aristo db use filter betw backend and tx cache (#1678) * Provide deep copy for each transaction layer why: Localising changes. Selective deep copy was just overlooked. * Generalise vertex ID generator state reorg function `vidReorg()` why: makes it somewhat easier to handle when saving layers. * Provide dummy back end descriptor `NoneBackendRef` * Optional read-only filter between backend and transaction cache why: Some staging area for accumulating changes to the backend DB. This will eventually be an access layer for emulating a backend with multiple/historic state roots. * Re-factor `persistent()` with filter between backend/tx-cache => `stow()` why: The filter provides an abstraction from the physically stored data on disk. So, there can be several MPT instances using the same disk data with different state roots. Of course, all the MPT instances should not differ too much for practical reasons :).

After defining abbreviations (and its meaning) it seems easier to use `getVtxUBE()` and `getKeyBE()`. * Integrate `hashify()` process into transaction logic why: Is now transparent unless explicitly controlled. details: Cache changes imply setting a `dirty` flag which in turn triggers `hashify()` processing in transaction and `pack()` directives. * Removed `aristo_tx.exec()` directive why: Inconsistent implementation, functionality will be provided with a different paradigm.
