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.
The Go authors updated golang/x/ext to change the function signature of the slices sort method.
It's an entire shitshow now because x/ext is not tagged, so everyone's codebase just
picked a new version that some other dep depends on, causing our code to fail building.
This PR updates the dep on our code too and does all the refactorings to follow upstream...
* all: implement path-based state scheme
* all: edits from review
* core/rawdb, trie/triedb/pathdb: review changes
* core, light, trie, eth, tests: reimplement pbss history
* core, trie/triedb/pathdb: track block number in state history
* trie/triedb/pathdb: add history documentation
* core, trie/triedb/pathdb: address comments from Peter's review
Important changes to list:
- Cache trie nodes by path in clean cache
- Remove root->id mappings when history is truncated
* trie/triedb/pathdb: fallback to disk if unexpect node in clean cache
* core/rawdb: fix tests
* trie/triedb/pathdb: rename metrics, change clean cache key
* trie/triedb: manage the clean cache inside of disk layer
* trie/triedb/pathdb: move journal function
* trie/triedb/path: fix tests
* trie/triedb/pathdb: fix journal
* trie/triedb/pathdb: fix history
* trie/triedb/pathdb: try to fix tests on windows
* core, trie: address comments
* trie/triedb/pathdb: fix test issues

This change makes the StateDB track the state key value diff of a block transition.
We already tracked current account and storage values for the purpose of updating
the state snapshot. With this PR, we now also track the original (pre-transition) values
of accounts and storage slots.
* trie: add node type common package
In trie/types package, a few node wrappers are defined, which will be used
in both trie package, trie/snap package, etc. Therefore, a standalone common
package is created to put these stuffs.
* trie: rename trie/types to trie/trienode
