This change makes use of uin256 to represent balance in state. It touches primarily upon statedb, stateobject and state processing, trying to avoid changes in transaction pools, core types, rpc and tracers.
This change allows the creation of a genesis block for verkle testnets. This makes for a chunk of code that is easier to review and still touches many discussion points.
accountTrieCache and storageTrieCache were introduced in this PR:
https://github.com/bnb-chain/bsc/pull/257, which is to improve performance.
Actually the performance gain is quite limited, as there is already dirty
and clean cache for trie node.
And after big merge, these 2 cache can not be used when PBSS is enabled.
So remove these code to simplify the logic.
This change enhances the stacktrie constructor by introducing an option struct. It also simplifies the `Hash` and `Commit` operations, getting rid of the special handling round root node.
This changes implements faster post-selfdestruct iteration of storage slots for deletion, by using snapshot-storage+stacktrie to recover the trienodes to be deleted. This mechanism is only implemented for path-based schema.
For hash-based schema, the entire post-selfdestruct storage iteration is skipped, with this change, since hash-based does not actually perform deletion anyway.

This change
- Removes the owner-notion from a stacktrie; the owner is only ever needed for comitting to the database, but the commit-function, the `writeFn` is provided by the caller, so the caller can just set the owner into the `writeFn` instead of having it passed through the stacktrie.
- Removes the `encoding.BinaryMarshaler`/`encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler` interface from stacktrie. We're not using it, and it is doubtful whether anyone downstream is either.
