These options, inspired by Nethermind and general internet wisdom, bring
the database size down to 2/3 without affecting throughput. In theory,
they should also bring down memory usage and/or make more efficient use
of whatever memory is already assigned to rocksdb but this needs
verification in a longer test at synced-mainnet sizes.
In the meantime, they make testing easier by removing some noise that
the profiler says are bad, such as excessive SkipList access (countered
by bloom filters).

* Add state endpoints tests.
`initTable` is obsolete since nim 0.19 and can introduce significant
memory overhead while providing no benefit (since the table will be
grown to the default initial size on first use anyway).
In particular, aristo layers will not necessarily use all tables they
initialize, for exampe when many empty accounts are being created.
This PR consolidates the split header-body sequences into a single EthBlock
sequence and cleans up the fallout from that which significantly reduces
block processing overhead during import thanks to less garbage collection
and fewer copies of things all around.
Notably, since the number of headers must always match the number of bodies,
we also get rid of a pointless degree of freedom that in the future could
introduce unnecessary bugs.
* only read header and body from era file
* avoid several unnecessary copies along the block processing way
* simplify signatures, cleaning up unused arguemnts and returns
* use `stew/assign2` in a few strategic places where the generated
nim assignent is slow and add a few `move` to work around poor
analysis in nim 1.6 (will need to be revisited for 2.0)

* Cleanup unneeded stateless and block witness code. Keeping MultiKeys which is used in the eth_getProofsByBlockNumber RPC endpoint which is needed for the Fluffy state network bridge.
* Rename generateWitness flag to collectWitnessData to better describe what the flag does. We only collect the keys of the touched accounts and storage slots but no block witness generation is supported for now.
* Move remaining stateless code into nimbus directory.
* Add vmstate parameter to ChainRef to fix test.
* Exclude *.in from check copyright year

* Code cosmetics
* Re-org `aristo_merge`, internally split into sub-modules
why:
Became a burden for maintenance because it hosts two different
functionalities under the same merge paradigm: account/data merge
and snap proof merge where the latter produces a partial trie.
* Fix CoreDb tracer
* Ledger: fix potential account vs. storage tree sync problems
* Remove bound on the size of removable whole storage trees
* Activate `test_tracer_json`
* Remove exception from evm memory
* Remove exception from gas meter
* Remove exception from stack
* Remove exception from precompiles
* Remove exception from gas_costs
* Remove exception from op handlers
* Remove exception from op dispatcher
* Remove exception from call_evm
* Remove exception from EVM
* Fix tools and tests
* Remove exception from EVMC

* REmove exception handling from getVmState
* Better error message instead of just doAssert
* Remove unused validation
* Remove superflous catchRaise
* Use results.expect instead of unsafeValue
* Remove `test_sync_snap`
why:
Snap sync needs to be re-factored. All the interesting database parts
from this test suite has been recycled into `Aristo`
* Remove `test_rocksdb_timing`
* Update `all_tests`
This new option saves a CSV to disk while performing `import` such that
the performance of one import can be compared with the other.
This early version is likely to change in the future
It's unused and causing trouble because of unhandled exception effects -
if we were to use it, it would need re-implementation such that it
doesn't reallocate the whole queue on writing.
* CoreDb: Remove crufty second/off-site KVT
why:
Was used to allow late `Clique` to store directly to disk
* CoreDb: Remove prune flag related functionality
why:
Is completely legacy stuff
* CoreDb: Remove dependence on legacy API (tests unsupported yet)
why:
Does not fully support Aristo
* Re-factoring `state_db` using new API
details:
Only minimum changes needed to compile `nimbus`
* Update tests and aux modules
* Turn off legacy API and remove `distinct_tries`
comment:
The legacy API has now cruft status, will be removed soon
* Fix copyright years
* Update rpc for verified proxy

* Fix `blobify()` for `SavedState` object
why:
Have to treat varying sizes for `HashKey`, i.p. for an empty key which
has zero size.
* Store correct block number in `SavedState` record
why:
Stored `block-number - 1` for some obscure reason.
* Cosmetcs, docu
These options are there mainly to drive experiments, and are therefore
hidden.
One thing that this PR brings in is an initial set of caches and buffers for rocksdb - the set that I've been using during various performance tests to get to a viable baseline performance level.
The `rocksdb` version shipped with distributions is typically old and
therefore often lacks features we use - it also doesn't match the one
assumed by nim-rocksdb leading to ABI mismatch risks.
Instead of depending on the system rocksdb, we'll now use the rocksdb
version assumed by nim-rocksdb and locked in its vendor folder by always
building it together with nimbus.
This avoids the problem of unknown rocksdb versions at a (small) cost to
build time.
CI caching and full windows support for building from source [remains
TODO](https://github.com/status-im/nim-rocksdb/issues/44).
* Remove all journal related stuff
* Refactor function names journal*() => delta*(), filter*() => delta*()
* remove `trg` fileld from `FilterRef`
why:
Same as `kMap[$1]`
* Re-type FilterRef.src as `HashKey`
why:
So it is directly comparable to `kMap[$1]`
* Moved `vGen[]` field from `LayerFinalRef` to `LayerDeltaRef`
why:
Then a separate `FilterRef` type is not needed, anymore
* Rename `roFilter` field in `AristoDbRef` => `balancer`
why:
New name more appropriate.
* Replace `FilterRef` by `LayerDeltaRef` type
why:
This allows to avoid copying into the `balancer` (see next patch set)
most of the time. Typically, only one instance is running on the backend
and the `balancer` is only used as a stage before saving data.
* Refactor way how to store data persistently
why:
Avoid useless copy when staging `top` layer for persistently saving to
backend.
* Fix copyright header?
`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
