Transaction and BlockHeader already updated in nim-eth repo
to support EIP-1559
EIP-1559 header validation and gasLimit validation
already implemented in previous commit
This commit deals with block validation:
- Effective gasPrice per EIP-1559
- new miner reward based on priorityFee
* continue importing rlp blocks
why:
a chain of blocks to be imported might have legit blocks
after rejected blocks
details:
import loop only stops if the import list is exhausted or if there
was a decoding error. this adds another four to the count of successful
no-hive tests.
* verify DAO marked extra data field in block header
why:
was ignored, scores another two no-hive tests
* verify minimum required difficulty in header validator
why:
two more nohive tests to succeed
details:
* subsumed extended header tests under validateKinship() and renamed it
more appropriately validateHeaderAndKinship()
* enhanced readability of p2p/chain.nim
* cleaned up test_blockchain_json.nim
* verify positive gasUsed unless no transactions
why:
solves another to nohive tests
details:
straightened test_blockchain_json chech so there is no unconditional
rejection anymore (based on the input test scenario)
File `vm_types2` is obsolete. Remove this file and divert all imports to the
common forks list outside the EVM, or in some cases they don't need it anyway.

why:
source-local unit tests would hardly be triggered by github CI as rightly
criticised with the last patch.
details:
source-local unit tests have been moved to tests folder.
this version also contains rlp serialisation code so rlp encode/decode
will apply tranparently. this is not needed in p2p/validate but will be
useful with the clique protocol.
