Feature/goerli replay clique poa (#743)
* extract unused clique/mining support into separate file

why:
  mining is currently unsupported by nimbus

* Replay first 51840 transactions from Goerli block chain

why:
  Currently Goerli is loaded but the block headers are not verified.
  Replaying allows real data PoA development.

details:
  Simple stupid gzipped dump/undump layer for debugging based on
  the zlib module (no nim-faststream support.)

  This is a replay running against p2p/chain.persistBlocks() where
  the data were captured from.

* prepare stubs for PoA engine

* split executor source into sup-modules

why:
  make room for updates, clique integration should go into
  executor/update_poastate.nim

* Simplify p2p/executor.processBlock() function prototype

why:
  vmState argument always wraps basicChainDB

* split processBlock() into sub-functions

why:
  isolate the part where it will support clique/poa

* provided additional processTransaction() function prototype without _fork_ argument

why:
  with the exception of some tests, the _fork_ argument is always derived
  from the other prototype argument _vmState_

details:
  similar situation with makeReceipt()

* provide new processBlock() version explicitly supporting PoA

details:
  The new processBlock() version supporting PoA is the general one also
  supporting non-PoA networks, it needs an additional _Clique_ descriptor
  function argument for PoA state (if any.)
  The old processBlock() function without the _Clique_ descriptor argument
  retorns an error on PoA networgs (e.g. Goerli.)

* re-implemented Clique descriptor as _ref object_

why:
  gives more flexibility when moving around the descriptor object

details:
  also cleaned up a bit the clique sources

* comments for clarifying handling of Clique/PoA state descriptor
