This update resolves an issue where StringSliceFlag would not be
rendered correctly in help output + mention that -H can be used multiple times

Prior to this change, f.begin (and possibly end) stay negative, leading to strange results later in the code. With this change, filters using "safe" and "finalized" block produce results consistent w/ the overall behavior of this RPC method.

This PR introduces a new mechanism in chain tracer for preventing creating too many trace states.
The workflow of chain tracer can be divided into several parts:
- state creator generates trace state in a thread
- state tracer retrieves the trace state and applies the tracing on top in another thread
- state collector gathers all result from state tracer and stream to users
It's basically a producer-consumer model here, while if we imagine that the state producer generates states too fast, then it will lead to accumulate lots of unused states in memory. Even worse, in path-based state scheme it will only keep the latest 128 states in memory, and the newly generated state will invalidate the oldest one by marking it as stale.
The solution for fixing it is to limit the speed of state generation. If there are over 128 states un-consumed in memory, then the creation will be paused until the states are be consumed properly.
Backwards compatibility warning: The result will from now on omit empty fields instead
of including a zero value (e.g. no more `balance: '0x'`).
The prestateTracer will now take an option `diffMode: bool`. In this mode
the tracer will output the pre state and post data for the modified parts of state.
Read-only accesses will be completely omitted. Creations (be it account or slot)
will be signified by omission in the `pre` list and inclusion in `post`. Whereas
deletion (be it account or slot) will be signified by inclusion in `pre` and omission
in `post` list.

This PR makes it so that the snap server responds to trie heal requests when possible, even if the snapshot does not exist. The idea being that it might prolong the lifetime of a state root, so we don't have to pivot quite as often.
