This PR extends the `nimbus import` command to also allow reading from
era files - this command allows creating or topping up an existing
database with data coming from era files instead of network sync.
* add `--era1-dir` and `--max-blocks` options to command line
* make `persistBlocks` report basic stats like transactions and gas
* improve error reporting in several API
* allow importing multiple RLP files in one go
* clean up logging options to match nimbus-eth2
* make sure database is closed properly on shutdown
- isolate dependencies (both Git repos and ".nimble" dir) in "vendor"
- ensure that everything is compiled using our version of Nim with
something as simple as "make"
- pull the latest changes with "make update"
- re-create Nimble's package dir and re-build the Nim compiler automatically when needed
- "env.sh" script that can be used to prefix any command that needs to use
"nim" or "nimble" from our Nim repo
- move the top level nim.cfg to nimbus/nim.cfg so it doesn't apply to
deps
- "fetch-dlls" `make` target for Windows to get precompiled Snappy, RocksDB and SQLite DLLs
* Move and cleanup interpreter files - prepare for redesign of VM
* fix call comment aobut recursive dependencies
* memory: use a template again and avoid (?) a cstring-> string conversion
* Fix stack test regression
* Fix recursive dependency on logging_ops, test_vm_json compiles but regression :/
* Fix signextend regression
* Fix 3 signed test and sha3 test
