Makes clear the distinction between Finalize and FinalizedAndAssemble:
- In Finalize function, a series of state operations are applied according to consensus rules. The statedb is mutated and the root hash can be checked and compared afterwards.
This function should be used in block processing(receive afrom network and apply it locally) but not block generation.
- In FinalizeAndAssemble function, after applying state mutations, the block is also to be assembled with the latest
state root computed, updating the header.
This function should be used in block generation only.
This adds two new rules to the transaction pool:
- A future transaction can not evict a pending transaction.
- A transaction can not overspend available funds of a sender.

Here, the core.Message interface turns into a plain struct and
types.Message gets removed.
This is a breaking change to packages core and core/types. While we do
not promise API stability for package core, we do for core/types. An
exception can be made for types.Message, since it doesn't have any
purpose apart from invoking the state transition in package core.
types.Message was also marked deprecated by the same commit it
got added in, 4dca5d4db7 (November 2016).
The core.Message interface was added in December 2014, in commit
db494170dc, for the purpose of 'testing' state transitions. It's the
same change that made transaction struct fields private. Before that,
the state transition used *types.Transaction directly.
Over time, multiple implementations of the interface accrued across
different packages, since constructing a Message is required whenever
one wants to invoke the state transition. These implementations all
looked very similar, a struct with private fields exposing the fields
as accessor methods.
By changing Message into a struct with public fields we can remove all
these useless interface implementations. It will also hopefully
simplify future changes to the type with less updates to apply across
all of go-ethereum when a field is added to Message.

This changes the test to match the comment description. Using timestampedConfig in this test case is incorrect, the comment says 'local is at Gray Glacier' and isn't aware of more forks.
