This combines two things, a C stack usage change with EVM nested calls
via EVMC, and changes to host call tracing.
Feature-wise, the tracing is improved:
- Storage keys and values are make more sense.
- The message/result/context objects are shown with all relevant fields.
- `call` trace is split into entry/exit, so these can be shown around the
called contract's operations, instead of only showing the `call` parameters
after the nested call is finished.
- Nested calls are indented, which helps to highlight the flow.
- C stack usage considerably reduced in nested calls when more functionality
is enabled (either tracing here, or other things to come).
This will seem like a minor patch, but C stack usage was the real motivation,
after plenty of time in the debugger.
Nobody cares about stack when `showTxCalls` (you can just use a big stack when
debugging). But these subtle changes around the `call` path were found to be
necessary for passing all tests when the EVMC nested call code is completed,
and that's a prerequisite for many things: async EVM, dynamic EVM, Beam Sync,
and to fix https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1/issues/345.

The update for London (EIP-1559) in 1cdb30df ("bump nim-emvc with evmc revision
8.0.0 to 9.0.0") really bumped EVMC ABI version from 7.5 up to 9.
In other words, it skipped Berlin, going direct from Istanbul to London.
That was accompanied by EVMC changes in 05e9b891 ("EIP-3198: add baseFee op
code in nim-evm"), which added the API changes needed for London.
But the missing Berlin functions weren't added in the move to London.
As a result, our EVMC host became incompatible with Berlin, London, and really
all revisions of the ABI, and if a third party EVM was loaded, it crashed.
This commit adds the missing Berlin host support, and makes our ABI
binary-compatible with real EVMC again.

Show calls from the host into the EVM. Shows the call, `evmc_message` fields,
and `evmc_result` fields when the call returns.
(When `show_tx_calls` is manually set to true.)

1. Send all EVM executions through the EVMC `execute` function.
It leads to the same place in the end as calling `Computation` before, but
`execute` is the API function used by all EVMC implementations, and it is
very explicit what data is passed back and forth.
2. As a consequence this starts using the new `host_services` code from EVM, so
this is a significant change to the paths used for account state processing.
3. Because we will have to remove the `newComputation` call on the host side,
anticipating that the contract code is now saved in `host` instead of being
copied around. As it's saved in `host`, there is no need to pass it
separately to `evmcExecComputation`.

Even though `evmc_create_nimbus_evm` is called, it fails at link time because
the definition of that function isn't included unless it is pulled in
explicitly.

1. This provides the necessary type adjustments for host services to be
(optionally) callable via the EVMC binary-compatible interface. This layer
is stashed away in a glue module so the host services continue to use
appropriate Nim types, and are still callable directly.
Inlining is used to ensure there should be no real overhead, including stack
frame size for the `call` function. Note, `import` must be used for
`{.inline.}` to work effectively.
2. This also provides a key call in the other direction, the version of host to
EVM `execute` that is called on the host side.
