fix (1) overflow/signed confusion when reading large-valued storage entries; (2) adjust test fixture validity for GeneralStateTests; (3) remove incorrect usage of state trie for code (not codehash) storage; add ability to display state; (4) avoid double-hashing keys for already-hashed SecureHexaryTrie for storage; (5) add intentionally local workaround for empty code in GeneralStateTest fixtures lacking 0x prefix; (6) fix nonce parsing, which is always hex string in test fixtures
