* Activate wire protocol eth/66
and:
Disentangle protocol_eth66.nim from import sections
why:
Importing the protocol_eth66 module is not necessary. There is
no need to know too many details of the underlying wire protocol. All
that is needed will be exported by blockchain_sync.nim.

Adds changes to Nimbus Hive support for the new
[Arrow Glacier fork](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-4345).
While here:
- Fix typo in `nimbus.sh`:
`HIVE_FORK_MUIRGLACIER` => `HIVE_FORK_MUIR_GLACIER` (just a comment).
- Add `muirGlacierBlock` to the JSON generated in `extract_consensus_data.nim`.
This makes it symmetric with the JSON parsed in `mapper.jq`.
- Removed "At5" network names which are not used by any of the test suite.
These are `ByzantiumToConstantinopleAt5`, `ConstantinopleFixToIstanbulAt5`
and `IstanbulToBerlinAt5`.
The motivation for removing these instead of systematically including all
possibilities was that I realised `LondonToArrowGlacierAt5` does not appear
anywhere in the current test suite, even though `ArrowGlacier` does. As each
section in the code is rather large already, I thought it cleaner to not add
this one, and keep only the ones the test suite actually uses.
This also now better matches the code in `test_blockchain_json.nim`.
- Sorted `HomesteadToDaoAt5` before `HomesteadToEIP150At5` because the DAO
fork happened earlier than EIP-150 in real life.

this is a preparation for migration to confutils based config
although there is still some getConfiguration usage in tests code
it will be removed after new config arrived
* Re-adjust canonical head to parent of block to be inserted
why:
of the failing tests that remain to be solved, 30 of those will succeed
if the canonical database chain head is cleverly adjusted -- yes, it
looks like a hack, indeed.
details:
at the moment, this hack works for the non-hive tests only and is
triggered by a boolean argument passed on to the chain.persistBlocks()
method.
* Use parent instead of canonical head for block to be inserted
why:
side chains need to be inserted typically somewhere before the
canonical head.
details:
the previous _hack_ was unnecessary and removed, it was inspired by
some verification in persistBlocks() which explicitly referenced the
canonical head (which now might or might not refer to the newly inserted
header.)
* remove unnecessary code + comment
now we have hive simulators written in nim:
- ethereum/consensus
- ethereum/graphql
Using these simulators, we can debug test cases without have to run
hive or docker.
