`persist` is a hotspot when processing blocks because it is run at least
once per transaction and loops over the entire account cache every time.
Here, we introduce an extra `dirty` map that keeps track of all accounts
that need checking during `persist` which fixes the immediate
inefficiency, though probably this could benefit from a more thorough
review - we also get rid of the unused clearCache flag - we start with
a fresh cache on every fresh vmState.
* avoid unnecessary code hash comparisons
* avoid unnecessary copies when iterating
* use EMPTY_CODE_HASH throughout for code hash comparison
The current implementation cannot be used practically since it causes
several full reallocations of the whole free list per deletion - it
needs to be reimplemented, or the chain cannot practically progress
beyond ~2.5M blocks where a lot of removals happen.

* fCU Ignore update to old head
* Only enable terminal PoW block conditions for fCUV1
* Typo fix: TDD -> TTD
* Add link to Shanghai fCUV2 specification
* Add link to Paris fCUV1 specification
* Add persistent last state stamp feature
why:
This allows to run `CoreDb` without journal
* Start `CoreDb` without journal
* Remove journal related functions from `CoredDb`
why:
Typo. That worked the wrong way in the unit tests because the
tests always store the last item separately with extended
logging.

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
* Update TDD suite logger output format choices
why:
New format is not practical for TDD as it just dumps data across a wide
range (considerably larder than 80 columns.)
So the new format can be turned on by function argument.
* Update unit tests samples configuration
why:
Slightly changed the way to find the `era1` directory
* Remove compiler warnings (fix deprecated expressions and phrases)
* Update `Aristo` debugging tools
* Always update the `storageID` field of account leaf vertices
why:
Storage tries are weekly linked to an account leaf object in that
the `storageID` field is updated by the application.
Previously, `Aristo` verified that leaf objects make sense when passed
to the database. As a consequence
* the database was inconsistent for a short while
* the burden for correctness was all on the application which led
to delayed error handling which is hard to debug.
So `Aristo` will internally update the account leaf objects so that
there are no race conditions due to the storage trie handling
* Aristo: Let `stow()`/`persist()` bail out unless there is a `VertexID(1)`
why:
The journal and filter logic depends on the hash of the `VertexID(1)`
which is commonly known as the state root. This implies that all
changes to the database are somehow related to that.
* Make sure that a `Ledger` account does not overwrite the storage trie reference
why:
Due to the abstraction of a sub-trie (now referred to as column with a
hash describing its state) there was a weakness in the `Aristo` handler
where an account leaf could be overwritten though changing the validity
of the database. This has been changed and the database will now reject
such changes.
This patch fixes the behaviour on the application layer. In particular,
the column handle returned by the `CoreDb` needs to be updated by
the `Aristo` database state. This mitigates the problem that a storage
trie might have vanished or re-apperaed with a different vertex ID.
* Fix sub-trie deletion test
why:
Was originally hinged on `VertexID(1)` which cannot be wholesale
deleted anymore after the last Aristo update. Also, running with
`VertexID(2)` needs an artificial `VertexID(1)` for making `stow()`
or `persist()` work.
* Cosmetics
* Activate `test_generalstate_json`
* Temporarily `deactivate test_tracer_json`
* Fix copyright header

* Use --styleCheck:error for Fluffy + fixes
There seems to be a clash between the names of an object field and
a proc here. As workaround names of the procs are changed.
* Fix case style for rpc client calls in test_portal_testnet
* Fix style case for utp test
* Implement engine_getClientVersionV1
* full git revision string
* Limit GitRevisionString to 8 chars
* Fixes
* Debug windows CI
* debug windows ci
* produce git revision using -C
* try not to delete .git folder in windows ci
* Harden GitRevision procuration
* Add double quotes to git -C param
* Escape sourcePath
* Remove double quotes from git -C param
* Remove crufty `pruneTrie` arguments
* Replaced legacy `distinct_trie` logic by new `ledger` functionality
why:
The module `distinct_trie` is supported by `Aristo` in trivial cases.
* Activate `test_op_memory`
* Workaround for disallowed transaction superseding
The transaction spammer from Kurtosis keeps spamming transactions with
the same nonce because report 'pending' account nocne based on 'latest'
rather than actually considering the mempool. To avoid errors from
rejecting those, disable the required gas price bump when replacing
a transaction with a new nonce.
* Lint
* Skip superseding negative test
* Workaround for 0 gas price estimation
The transaction spammer from Kurtosis estimates the gas price of its
transactions using 'eth_gasPrice'. Our implementation returns 0 when
no transactions have been executed yet, not taking into account the
EIP-1559 block base fee. Force a hardcoded minimum for now to unstuck.
* Adjust tests to cover new minimum gas fee
* Skip gas price test
* Refactor get parent gossip code and add Nibbles helper function.
* Add logging to state gossip.
* Unit test recursive gossip using state gossip getParent functions.
* Add recursive gossip genesis json test and fix bug in state gossip getParent.
* Add Nibbles len function.
This PR exploits structural properties of era files to simplify the
implementation and in particular remove the need to load all era file
indicies at startup which may be slow (due to archival storage residing
on slow drives)
