Snap sync simplify object inheritance (#1098)
* Reorg SnapPeerBase descriptor, notably start/stop flags

details:
  Instead of using three boolean flags startedFetch, stopped, and
  stopThisState a single enum type is used with values SyncRunningOk,
  SyncStopRequest, and SyncStopped.

* Restricting snap to eth66 and later

why:
  Id-tracked request/response wire protocol can handle overlapped
  responses when requests are sent in row.

* Align function names with source code file names

why:
  Easier to reconcile when following the implemented logic.

* Update trace logging (want file locations)

why:
  The macros previously used hid the relevant file location (when
  `chroniclesLineNumbers` turned on.) It rather printed the file
  location of the template that was wrapping `trace`.

* Use KeyedQueue table instead of sequence

why:
  Quick access, easy configuration as LRU or FIFO with max entries
  (currently LRU.)

* Dissolve `SnapPeerEx` object extension into `SnapPeer`

why;
  It is logically cleaner and more obvious not to inherit from
  `SnapPeerBase` but to specify opaque field object references of the
  merged `SnapPeer` object. These can then be locally inherited.

* Dissolve `SnapSyncEx` object extension into `SnapSync`

why;
  It is logically cleaner and more obvious not to inherit from
  `SnapSyncEx` but to specify opaque field object references of
  the `SnapPeer` object. These can then be locally inherited.

  Also, in the re-factored code here the interface descriptor
  `SnapSyncCtx` inherited `SnapSyncEx` which was sub-optimal (OO
  inheritance makes it easier to work with call back functions.)
