Integrate hashtree for better hashing performance (#5188)

status-im/nim-ssz-serialization#35 brings in https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/hashtree as a supported backend for SHA256, giving a nice little performance boost to all hash_tree_root calls on supported platforms / compilers.

Expected gains are on the order of 30% which in the case of a replayed state nets us 0.2-0.3s improvement.
