This PR adds `DeleteRange` to `ethdb.KeyValueWriter`. While range
deletion using an iterator can be really slow, `DeleteRange` is natively
supported by pebble and apparently runs in O(1) time (typically 20-30ms
in my tests for removing hundreds of millions of keys and gigabytes of
data). For leveldb and memorydb an iterator based fallback is
implemented. Note that since the iterator method can be slow and a
database function should not unexpectedly block for a very long time,
the number of deleted keys is limited at 10000 which should ensure that
it does not block for more than a second. ErrTooManyKeys is returned if
the range has only been partially deleted. In this case the caller can
repeat the call until it finally succeeds.
* avoid unnecessary copy
* delete the never used function ProofList
* eth/protocols/snap, trie/trienode: polish the code

This is a minor refactor in preparation of changes to range verifier. This PR contains no intentional functional changes but moves (and renames) the light.NodeSet
* all: freezer style syncing
core, eth, les, light: clean up freezer relative APIs
core, eth, les, trie, ethdb, light: clean a bit
core, eth, les, light: add unit tests
core, light: rewrite setHead function
core, eth: fix downloader unit tests
core: add receipt chain insertion test
core: use constant instead of hardcoding table name
core: fix rollback
core: fix setHead
core/rawdb: remove canonical block first and then iterate side chain
core/rawdb, ethdb: add hasAncient interface
eth/downloader: calculate ancient limit via cht first
core, eth, ethdb: lots of fixes
* eth/downloader: print ancient disable log only for fast sync
This PR is a more advanced form of the dirty-to-clean cacher (#18995),
where we reuse previous database write batches as datasets to uncache,
saving a dirty-trie-iteration and a dirty-trie-rlp-reencoding per block.
* les, light: fix CHT trie retrievals
* les, light: minor polishes, test remote CHT retrievals
* les, light: deterministic nodeset rlp, bloombits test skeleton
* les: add an event emission to the les bloombits test
* les: drop dead tester code
This PR implements the new LES protocol version extensions:
* new and more efficient Merkle proofs reply format (when replying to
a multiple Merkle proofs request, we just send a single set of trie
nodes containing all necessary nodes)
* BBT (BloomBitsTrie) works similarly to the existing CHT and contains
the bloombits search data to speed up log searches
* GetTxStatusMsg returns the inclusion position or the
pending/queued/unknown state of a transaction referenced by hash
* an optional signature of new block data (number/hash/td) can be
included in AnnounceMsg to provide an option for "very light
clients" (mobile/embedded devices) to skip expensive Ethash check
and accept multiple signatures of somewhat trusted servers (still a
lot better than trusting a single server completely and retrieving
everything through RPC). The new client mode is not implemented in
this PR, just the protocol extension.
