This PR introduces a node scheme abstraction. The interface is only implemented by `hashScheme` at the moment, but will be extended by `pathScheme` very soon.
Apart from that, a few changes are also included which is worth mentioning:
- port the changes in the stacktrie, tracking the path prefix of nodes during commit
- use ethdb.Database for constructing trie.Database. This is not necessary right now, but it is required for path-based used to open reverse diff freezer
* core: use TryGetAccount to read where TryUpdateAccount has been used to write
* Gary's review feedback
* implement Gary's suggestion
* fix bug + rename NewSecure into NewStateTrie
* trie: add backwards-compatibility aliases for SecureTrie
* Update database.go
* make the linter happy

Trie tracer is an auxiliary tool to capture all deleted nodes
which can't be captured by trie.Committer. The deleted nodes
can be removed from the disk later.
* trie: store nodes as pointers
This avoids memory copies when unwrapping node interface values.

* trie: close temporary databases in GetDB benchmark
* trie: don't keep []byte from DB load around
Nodes decoded from a DB load kept hashes and values as sub-slices of
the DB value. This can be a problem because loading from leveldb often
returns []byte with a cap that's larger than necessary, increasing
memory usage.
* trie: unload old cached nodes
* trie, core/state: use cache unloading for account trie
* trie: use explicit private flags (fixes Go 1.5 reflection issue).
* trie: fixup cachegen overflow at request of nick
* core/state: rename journal size constant
