* Nimbus folder environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `nimbus` sub-folder.
* The `nimbus` program does not compile yet as it needs the updates
in the parallel `stateless` sub-folder.
* Stateless environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `stateless` sub-folder.
* The `nimbus` program compiles now.
* Premix environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `premix` sub-folder.
* Fluffy environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `fluffy` sub-folder.
* Tools environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `tools` sub-folder.
* Nodocker environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the
`hive_integration/nodocker` sub-folder.
* Tests environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `tests` sub-folder.
* The unit tests compile and run cleanly now.
* Generalise `CoreDbRef` to any `select_backend` supported database
why:
Generalisation was just missed due to overcoming some compiler oddity
which was tied to rocksdb for testing.
* Suppress compiler warning for `newChainDB()`
why:
Warning was added to this function which must be wrapped so that
any `CatchableError` is re-raised as `Defect`.
* Split off persistent `CoreDbRef` constructor into separate file
why:
This allows to compile a memory only database version without linking
the backend library.
* Use memory `CoreDbRef` database by default
detail:
Persistent DB constructor needs to import `db/core_db/persistent
why:
Most tests use memory DB anyway. This avoids linking `-lrocksdb` or
any other backend by default.
* fix `toLegacyBackend()` availability check
why:
got garbled after memory/persistent split.
* Clarify raw access to MPT for snap sync handler
why:
Logically, `kvt` is not the raw access for the hexary trie (although
this holds for the legacy database)
Two unresolved items currently:
- Three tests that are temporarily disabled as they fail in the
macro_assembler code, which seems to be due to an ambigious
identifier Stop (Ops and chronos ServerCommand enum).
- i386 CI disabled as it fails at Nim compilation already. Failed
tests where already ignored for this target.
previously, every time the VMState was created, it will also create
new stateDB, and this action will nullify the advantages of cached accounts.
the new changes will conserve the accounts cache if the executed blocks
are contiguous. if not the stateDB need to be reinited.
this changes also allow rpcCallEvm and rpcEstimateGas executed properly
using current stateDB instead of creating new one each time they are called.

although this is not part of EIP 1767
but the hive test cases derived from besu
test cases contains this.
we add this now to pass more test hive.graphql cases
`makeCall` used by GraphQL is another way to setup and call the EVM.
Move it to `transaction/call_evm`.

`estimateGas` used by JSON-RPC is another way to setup and call the EVM,
also used by GraphQL. Move it to `transaction/call_evm`.
This function has too much direct knowledge of details that shouldn't be used
outside transaction handling code, details we need to change when changing the
db and transaction memory layer.
Moving this one exposed quite a bit of abstraction leakage, as it calls
directly to the hexary trie db around `processTransaction`.
It looks like the _intended_ functionality of `estimateGas` is similar to
`rpcDoCall` with the only real difference being to not store the final state.
It looks like the extra stuff in `estimateGas` compared with `doCall` is a
messy workaround for computation not exposing the right API ("don't save final
state") for RPC to use.

Start gathering the functions that call the EVM into one place,
`transaction/call_evm.nim`.
This is first of a series of changes to gather all ways the EVM is called to
one place. Duplicate, slightly different setup functions have accumulated over
time, each with some knowledge of EVM internals. When they are brought
together, these methods will be changed to use a single entry point to the EVM,
allowing the entry point to be refactored, EVMC to be completed, and async
concurrency to be implemented on top. This also simplifies the callers.
First, a helper function used by RPC and GraphQL to make EVM calls without
permanently modifying the account state. `setupComputation` ->
`rpcSetupComputation`.
