Aristo db refactor tx paradim (#1674)
* Better error handling

why:
  Bail out on some error as early as possible before any changes.

* Implement `fetch()` as opposite of `merge()`

rationale:
  In the `Aristo` realm, the action named `fetch()` and `merge()` indicate
  leaf value related actions on the MPT, while actions `get()` and `put()`
   handle vertex or hash key related operations that constitute the MPT.

* Re-factor `merge()` prototypes

why:
  The most used variant of `merge()` should have the simplest prototype.

* Persistent DB constructor needs to import `aristo/aristo_init/persistent`

why:
  Most applications use memory DB anyway. This avoids linking `-lrocksdb`
  or any other back end libraries by default.

* Re-factor transaction module

why:
  Got the paradigm wrong. The transaction descriptor did replace the
  database one but should be handled separately.

Unified database frontend integration (#1670)
* 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)

Replace `CoreDbRef` oo-methods by closures (#1668)
why:
* Resolves some compiler coughing when it bails out on persitent
  db constructor inside `test()` caluses (works perfectly outside.)
* API looks cleaner and better to maintain for the price of slightly
  more work at the backend

Unified database frontend (#1661)
* Remove 32bit os support from `custom_network` unit test

also:
* Fix compilation annoyance #1648
* Fix unit test on Kiln (changed `merge` logic?)

* Hide unused sources do not compile

why:
* Get them out of the way before major update
* Import and function prototype mismatch -- maybe some changes got out
  of scope.

* Re-implemented `db_chain` as `core_db`

why:
  Hiding `TrieDatabaseRef` and `HexaryTrie` by default allows to replace
  the current db wrapper by some other one, e.g. Aristo

* Support compiler exception warnings for CoreDbRef base methods.

* Allow `pairs()` iterator on all memory based key-value tables

why:
  Previously only available for capture recorder.

* Backport `chain_db.nim` changes into its re-implementation `core_apps.nim`

* Fix exception annotation
