Node discovery periodically revalidates the nodes in its table by sending PING, checking
if they are still alive. I recently noticed some issues with the implementation of this
process, which can cause strange results such as nodes dropping unexpectedly, certain
nodes not getting revalidated often enough, and bad results being returned to incoming
FINDNODE queries.
In this change, the revalidation process is improved with the following logic:
- We maintain two 'revalidation lists' containing the table nodes, named 'fast' and 'slow'.
- The process chooses random nodes from each list on a randomized interval, the interval being
faster for the 'fast' list, and performs revalidation for the chosen node.
- Whenever a node is newly inserted into the table, it goes into the 'fast' list.
Once validation passes, it transfers to the 'slow' list. If a request fails, or the
node changes endpoint, it transfers back into 'fast'.
- livenessChecks is incremented by one for successful checks. Unlike the old implementation,
we will not drop the node on the first failing check. We instead quickly decay the
livenessChecks give it another chance.
- Order of nodes in bucket doesn't matter anymore.
I am also adding a debug API endpoint to dump the node table content.

This fixes an issue for `debug_traceBlock*` methods where the BASEFEE opcode was returning always 0. This caused the method return invalid results.

It's a bit confusing to add msg.value into the balanceCheck within the conditional.
No impact on block validation since GasFeeCap is always set when processing transactions.

Added a start/end system where tracer can be notified that processing of some Ethereum system calls is starting processing and also notifies it when the processing has completed.
Doing a start/end for system call will enable tracers to "route" incoming next tracing events to go to a separate bucket than other EVM calls. Those not interested by this fact can simply avoid registering the hooks.
The EVM call is going to be traced normally afterward between the signals provided by those 2 new hooks but outside of a transaction context OnTxStart/End. That something implementors of live tracers will need to be aware of (since only "trx tracers" are not concerned by ProcessBeaconRoot).
