Also embed evmc_status_code to computation.error, and make
the tracer produce cleaner output. No more "Revert opcode executed"
error message. We can distinguish error code between REVERT
and FAILURE in a more cleaner way.
simplify EVM and delegete those things to accounts cache.
also no more manual state clearing, accounts cache will be
responsible for both collecting touched account and perform
state clearing.
Prior to this patch, top-level EVM executions and nested EVM executions did
their `getStorage` and other requests using a completely different set of host
functions. It was just unfinished, to get top-level "new" EVMC working.
This finishes the job - it stops using the old methods. Effect:
- Functionality added at the EVMC host level will be used by all EVM calls.
(The target here is Beam Sync).
- The old set of functions are no longer used, so they can be removed.
- When EVMC host call tracing is enabled (`showTxCalls = true`), it traces
the calls from nested EVM executions as well as top-level.

This combines two things, a C stack usage change with EVM nested calls
via EVMC, and changes to host call tracing.
Feature-wise, the tracing is improved:
- Storage keys and values are make more sense.
- The message/result/context objects are shown with all relevant fields.
- `call` trace is split into entry/exit, so these can be shown around the
called contract's operations, instead of only showing the `call` parameters
after the nested call is finished.
- Nested calls are indented, which helps to highlight the flow.
- C stack usage considerably reduced in nested calls when more functionality
is enabled (either tracing here, or other things to come).
This will seem like a minor patch, but C stack usage was the real motivation,
after plenty of time in the debugger.
Nobody cares about stack when `showTxCalls` (you can just use a big stack when
debugging). But these subtle changes around the `call` path were found to be
necessary for passing all tests when the EVMC nested call code is completed,
and that's a prerequisite for many things: async EVM, dynamic EVM, Beam Sync,
and to fix https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1/issues/345.

The update for London (EIP-1559) in 1cdb30df ("bump nim-emvc with evmc revision
8.0.0 to 9.0.0") really bumped EVMC ABI version from 7.5 up to 9.
In other words, it skipped Berlin, going direct from Istanbul to London.
That was accompanied by EVMC changes in 05e9b891 ("EIP-3198: add baseFee op
code in nim-evm"), which added the API changes needed for London.
But the missing Berlin functions weren't added in the move to London.
As a result, our EVMC host became incompatible with Berlin, London, and really
all revisions of the ABI, and if a third party EVM was loaded, it crashed.
This commit adds the missing Berlin host support, and makes our ABI
binary-compatible with real EVMC again.

1. Send all EVM executions through the EVMC `execute` function.
It leads to the same place in the end as calling `Computation` before, but
`execute` is the API function used by all EVMC implementations, and it is
very explicit what data is passed back and forth.
2. As a consequence this starts using the new `host_services` code from EVM, so
this is a significant change to the paths used for account state processing.
3. Because we will have to remove the `newComputation` call on the host side,
anticipating that the contract code is now saved in `host` instead of being
copied around. As it's saved in `host`, there is no need to pass it
separately to `evmcExecComputation`.

`TransactionHost` represents the interface to the EVM from the application once
we've fully transitioned to EVMC. It represents a managed EVM call, and the
"EVMC host" side of the host<->EVM boundary.
This holds transaction state which sits outside the EVM, but a pointer to this
is passed around by the EVM as _opaque_ type `evmc_host_context`.
To the EVM, this offers "host services", which manage account state that the
EVM cannot do, such as balance transfers, call costs, storage, logs, gas
refunds, nested calls and new contract addresses. The EVM has no direct access
to the account state database or network; it's all via "host services".
To the application (host side), this object represents a managed EVM call, with
inputs, a method to run, outputs, hidden transaction state, and later async
scheduling. It is to replace `Computation` on the application side, while
`Computation` will remain but just be for the EVM side.
