Some of the other clients don't bother to store block numbers as
256-bit integers (64 bits or even 32 bit are enough).
The changes here are based on helpers introduced in eth_common
that try to abstract away all conversion steps in the code between
VM words and block numbers in variables in fields. Unfortunately,
this turn out to be more work than anticipated and I've postponed
finishing the refactoring for now (Block numbers are still 256 bit).
* `usedBytes` was not named appropriately. it indicates the last
populated position in the data (the last valid index) for slicing
purposes (i.e. the position is passed to `toOpenArray`)
* Fixed the `==` operator for DBKeys
* Use one-byte key for the 'canonical head hash'
* 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
* Decoupling op logic and gas - introduce gasometer, rework opcode declaration
* Remove gas constants for gas opcode computation
* Remove gas constants for precompiled contracts
* make vm_types compile
* Make opcode, call and computation compile
* Distinguish between dynamic and complex gas costs, fix arithmetic
* Fix context and sha3
* update memory and storage ops
* Log opcode uses memory expansion code
* update/stub system_ops with gas costs
* Make test compile. Deactivate stub test_vm
* all tests compiles, opcode fails due to https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/8007 (const object variant in tables reset at runtime)
* Create an enum without holes - workaround: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/8007
* Use arrays instead of tables for GasCosts, remove some unused imports - passing all basic tests!
* Make test_vm_json compile
* Fix test_vm_json - workaround https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/8015
* fix memory expansion cost bug
* Remove leftover special handling from before GckMemExpansion
* cleanup outdated comment, better align =
* Fix sha3 gas cost not taking memory expansion into account
* Improve gas error reporting of test_vm_json
* Fix gas computation regression due to mem expansion
* mass replace for memExpansion->RequestedMemSize was too eager
* fix log gas cost (no tests :/)
* missed a static FeeSchedule
* static as expression is fickle
