Aristodb remove obsolete and time consuming admin features (#2048)
* Aristo: Reorg `hashify()` using different schedule algorithm

why:
  Directly calculating the search tree top down from the roots turns
  out to be faster than using the cached structures left over by `merge()`
  and `delete()`.
  Time gains is short of 20%

* Aristo: Remove `lTab[]` leaf entry object type

why:
  Not used anymore. It was previously needed to build the schedule for
  `hashify()`.

* Aristo: Avoid unnecessary re-org of the vertex ID recycling list

why:
  This list can become quite large so a heuristic is employed whether
  it makes sense to re-org.

  Also, re-org check is only done by `delete()` functions.

* Aristo: Remove key/reverse lookup table from tx layers

why:
  It is ignored except for handling proof nodes and costs unnecessary
  run time resources.

  This feature was originally needed to accommodate the mental transition
  from the legacy MPT to the `Aristo` trie :).

* Fix copyright year

Aristo: Update unit test suite (#2002)
* Aristo: Update unit test suite

* Aristo/Kvt: Fix iterators

why:
  Generic iterators were not properly updated after backend change

* Aristo: Add sub-trie deletion functionality

why:
  For storage tries linked to an account payload vertex ID, a the
  whole storage trie needs to be deleted with the account.

* Aristo: Reserve vertex ID numbers for static custom state roots

why:
  Static custom state roots may be controlled by an application,
  e.g. for a receipt or a transaction root. The `Aristo` functions
  are agnostic of what the static state roots are when different
  from the internal tree vertex ID 1.

details;
  The `merge()` function applied to a non-static state root (assumed
  to be a storage root) will check the payload of an accounts leaf
  and mark its Merkle keys to be re-checked.

* Aristo: Correct error code symbol

* Aristo: Update error code symbols

* Aristo: Code cosmetics/comments

* Aristo: Fix hashify schedule calculator

why:
  Had a tendency to stop early leaving an incomplete job

Aristo and ledger small updates (#1888)
* Fix debug noise in `hashify()` for perfectly normal situation

why:
  Was previously considered a fixable error

* Fix test sample file names

why:
  The larger test file `goerli68161.txt.gz` is already in the local
  archive. So there is no need to use the smaller one from the external
  repo.

* Activate `accounts_cache` module from `db/ledger`

why:
  A copy of the original `accounts_cache.nim` source to be integrated
  into the `Ledger` module wrapper which allows to switch between
  different `accounts_cache` implementations unser tha same API.

details:
  At a later state, the `db/accounts_cache.nim` wrapper will be
  removed so that there is only one access to that module via
  `db/ledger/accounts_cache.nim`.

* Fix copyright headers in source code

Aristo db update for short nodes key edge cases (#1887)
* Aristo: Provide key-value list signature calculator

detail:
  Simple wrappers around `Aristo` core functionality

* Update new API for `CoreDb`

details:
+ Renamed new API functions `contains()` => `hasKey()` or `hasPath()`
  which disables the `in` operator on non-boolean 	`contains()` functions
+ The functions `get()` and `fetch()` always return a not-found error if
  there is no item, available. The new functions `getOrEmpty()` and
  `mergeOrEmpty()` return an an empty `Blob` if there is no such key
  found.

* Rewrite `core_apps.nim` using new API from `CoreDb`

* Use `Aristo` functionality for calculating Merkle signatures

details:
  For debugging, the `VerifyAristoForMerkleRootCalc` can be set so
  that `Aristo` results will be verified against the legacy versions.

* Provide general interface for Merkle signing key-value tables

details:
  Export `Aristo` wrappers

* Activate `CoreDb` tests

why:
  Now, API seems to be stable enough for general tests.

* Update `toHex()` usage

why:
  Byteutils' `toHex()` is superior to `toSeq.mapIt(it.toHex(2)).join`

* Split `aristo_transcode` => `aristo_serialise` + `aristo_blobify`

why:
+ Different modules for different purposes
+ `aristo_serialise`: RLP encoding/decoding
+ `aristo_blobify`: Aristo database encoding/decoding

* Compacted representation of small nodes' links instead of Keccak hashes

why:
  Ethereum MPTs use Keccak hashes as node links if the size of an RLP
  encoded node is at least 32 bytes. Otherwise, the RLP encoded node
  value is used as a pseudo node link (rather than a hash.) Such a node
  is nor stored on key-value database. Rather the RLP encoded node value
  is stored instead of a lode link in a parent node instead. Only for
  the root hash, the top level node is always referred to by the hash.

  This feature needed an abstraction of the `HashKey` object which is now
  either a hash or a blob of length at most 31 bytes. This leaves two
  ways of representing an empty/void `HashKey` type, either as an empty
  blob of zero length, or the hash of an empty blob.

* Update `CoreDb` interface (mainly reducing logger noise)

* Fix copyright years (to make `Lint` happy)
