* Moved `vm.Transfer` to `core` package and changed execution to call
`env.Transfer` instead of `core.Transfer` directly.
* core/vm: byte code VM moved to jump table instead of switch
* Moved `vm.Transfer` to `core` package and changed execution to call
`env.Transfer` instead of `core.Transfer` directly.
* Byte code VM now shares the same code as the JITVM
* Renamed Context to Contract
* Changed initialiser of state transition & unexported methods
* Removed the Execution object and refactor `Call`, `CallCode` &
`Create` in to their own functions instead of being methods.
* Removed the hard dep on the state for the VM. The VM now
depends on a Database interface returned by the environment. In the
process the core now depends less on the statedb by usage of the env
* Moved `Log` from package `core/state` to package `core/vm`.
Most eth RPC calls that work with blocks crashed when the block was not
found because they called Hash on a nil block. This is a regression
introduced in cdc2662c409 (#1779).
While here, remove the insane conversions in get*CountBy*. There is no
need to construct a complete BlockRes and converting
int->int64->*big.Int->[]byte->hexnum->string to format the length of a
slice as hex.
* resolver -> common/registrar
* global registrar name registry interface
* add Call to resolver backend interface
* the hashReg and UrlHing contracts now initialised from global registry
* initialization of contracts uniform
* improve errors and more econsistent method names
* common/registrar/ethreg: versioned registrar
* integrate new naming and registrar in natspec
* js console api: setGlobalRegistrar, setHashReg, setUrlHint
* js test TestContract uses mining - tests fixed all pass
* eth/backend: allow PoW test mode (small ethash DAG)
* console jsre refers to resolver.abi/addr,
* cmd/geth/contracts.go moved to common/registrar
