This pull request removes the destruct flag from the state snapshot to
simplify the code.
Previously, this flag indicated that an account was removed during a
state transition, making all associated storage slots inaccessible.
Because storage deletion can involve a large number of slots, the actual
deletion is deferred until the end of the process, where it is handled
in batches.
With the deprecation of self-destruct in the Cancun fork, storage
deletions are no longer expected. Historically, the largest storage
deletion event in Ethereum was around 15 megabytes—manageable in memory.
In this pull request, the single destruct flag is replaced by a set of
deletion markers for individual storage slots. Each deleted storage slot
will now appear in the Storage set with a nil value.
This change will simplify a lot logics, such as storage accessing,
storage flushing, storage iteration and so on.
This PR cleans up the configurations for pruner and snapshotter by passing a config struct.
And also, this PR disables the snapshot background generation if the chain is opened in "read-only" mode. The read-only mode is necessary in some cases. For example, we have a list of commands to open the etheruem node in "read-only" mode, like export-chain. In these cases, the snapshot background generation is non expected and should be banned explicitly.
This enables the following linters
- typecheck
- unused
- staticcheck
- bidichk
- durationcheck
- exportloopref
- gosec
WIth a few exceptions.
- We use a deprecated protobuf in trezor. I didn't want to mess with that, since I cannot meaningfully test any changes there.
- The deprecated TypeMux is used in a few places still, so the warning for it is silenced for now.
- Using string type in context.WithValue is apparently wrong, one should use a custom type, to prevent collisions between different places in the hierarchy of callers. That should be fixed at some point, but may require some attention.
- The warnings for using weak random generator are squashed, since we use a lot of random without need for cryptographic guarantees.
This PR fixes the flaw that @rjl493456442 found in https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/#issuecomment-1093817551 , namely, that the snapshot iterator uses the combined (disk + difflayers) 'view', wheres the raw iterator uses only the disk 'view'.
This PR instead splits up the work: one phase is iterating the disk layer data, another phase is loading the journalled difflayers and performing the same check there.

* core/state/snapshot: print warning if failed to resolve journal
* core/state/snapshot: fix snapshot recovery
When we meet the snapshot journal consisted with:
- disk layer generator with new-format
- diff layer journal with old-format
The base layer should be returned without error.
The broken diff layer can be reconstructed later
but we definitely don't want to reconstruct the
huge diff layer.
