Jordan/pow cache management (#888)
* PoW wrapper for verification & mining

why:
  It eases data management of per-Epoch lookup tables. Also some unit
  tests show limits of usefulness on non-specialised machines for
  mining besides developing tests.

details:
  For PoW verification, this patch provides a pretty wrapper hiding the
  details of the ethash/Hashimoto lookup cache management.

  For mining on my development system without special hardware, the
  underlying ethash functions are prohibitively slow. It takes
   * ~20 minutes to prepare the full ethash/Hashimoto lookup dataset
   * a second to run ~25k nonce tests (in the mining loop)

  The mining part might be of some use for generating test data for
  the tx-pool, though.

* Using PowRef as replacement for EpochHashCache + hashimotoLight()

* Fix typo (CI failed)

why:
  was below log level when testing locally

* fix canonical naming
