* Remove cruft * Docu/code cosmetics * Aristo: Update `forkBase()` why: Was not up to the job * Update/correct tracer for running against `Aristo` details: This patch makes sure that before creating a new `BaseVMState` the `CoreDb` context is adjusted to accommodate for the state root that is passed to the `BaseVMState` constructor. * CpreDb+legacy: Always return current context with `ctxFromTx()` why: There was an experimental setting trying to find the node with the proper setting in the KVT (not the hexary tie layer) which currently does not work reliable, probably due to `Ledger` caching effects. |

Background
The new LedgerRef module unifies different implementations of the accounts_cache. It is intended to be used as new base method for all of the AccountsCache implementations. Only constructors differ, depending on the implementation.
This was needed to accomodate for different CoreDb API paradigms. While the overloaded legacy AccountsCache implementation is just a closure based wrapper around the accounts_cache module, the overloaded AccountsLedgerRef is a closure based wrapper around the accounts_ledger module with the new CoreDb API returning Result[] values and saparating the meaning of trie root hash and trie root reference.
This allows to use the legacy hexary database (with the new CoreDb API) as well as the Aristo database (only supported on new API.)
