* Cleanup unneeded stateless and block witness code. Keeping MultiKeys which is used in the eth_getProofsByBlockNumber RPC endpoint which is needed for the Fluffy state network bridge.
* Rename generateWitness flag to collectWitnessData to better describe what the flag does. We only collect the keys of the touched accounts and storage slots but no block witness generation is supported for now.
* Move remaining stateless code into nimbus directory.
* Add vmstate parameter to ChainRef to fix test.
* Exclude *.in from check copyright year

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
- The fluffy test vector repo got forked (well, copied rather) to
become the official one under ethereum github org, so we change
to that repo now and archive ours.
- Our repo also stored accumulator / historical_roots, replace
that with a new repo which is only for network configs.
- Several changes needed to be made due to test vectors that got
updated + some of them got changed to / are yaml format instead of
json.
