This PR reduces the amount of work we do when answering header queries, e.g. when a peer
is syncing from us.
For some items, e.g block bodies, when we read the rlp-data from database, we plug it
directly into the response package. We didn't do that for headers, but instead read
headers-rlp, decode to types.Header, and re-encode to rlp. This PR changes that to keep it
in RLP-form as much as possible. When a node is syncing from us, it typically requests 192
contiguous headers. On master it has the following effect:
- For headers not in ancient: 2 db lookups. One for translating hash->number (even though
the request is by number), and another for reading by hash (this latter one is sometimes
cached).
- For headers in ancient: 1 file lookup/syscall for translating hash->number (even though
the request is by number), and another for reading the header itself. After this, it
also performes a hashing of the header, to ensure that the hash is what it expected. In
this PR, I instead move the logic for "give me a sequence of blocks" into the lower
layers, where the database can determine how and what to read from leveldb and/or
ancients.
There are basically four types of requests; three of them are improved this way. The
fourth, by hash going backwards, is more tricky to optimize. However, since we know that
the gap is 0, we can look up by the parentHash, and stlil shave off all the number->hash
lookups.
The gapped collection can be optimized similarly, as a follow-up, at least in three out of
four cases.

This PR fixes a special corner case in transaction indexing.
When the chain is rewound by SetHead to a historical point which is even lower than the transaction indexes tail, then system will report Failed to decode block body error all the time, because the relevant blocks are already deleted.
In order to avoid this "non-critical-but-annoying" issue, we can recap the indexing target to head+1(to is excluded, so it means indexing transactions from 0 to head).

The price limit is supposed to exclude transactions with too low fee
amount. Before EIP-1559, it was sufficient to check the limit against
the gas price of the transaction. After 1559, it is more complicated
because the concept of 'transaction gas price' does not really exist.
When mining, the price limit is used to exclude transactions below a
certain effective fee amount. This change makes it apply the same check
earlier, in tx validation. Transactions below the specified fee amount
cannot enter the pool.
Fixes#23837
This PR offers two more database sub commands for exporting and importing data.
Two exporters are implemented: preimage and snapshot data respectively.
The import command is generic, it can take any data export and import into leveldb.
The data format has a 'magic' for disambiguation, and a version field for future compatibility.
It is because write known block only checks block and state without snapshot, which could lead to gap between newest snapshot and newest block state. However, new blocks which would cause snapshot to become fixed were ignored, since state was already known.

* core: write test showing that TD is not stored properly at genesis
The ToBlock method applies a default value for an empty
difficulty value. This default is not carried over through the Commit
method because the TotalDifficulty database write writes the
original difficulty value (nil) instead of the defaulty value
present on the genesis Block.

This removes some code:
- The clique engine calculated the snapshot twice when verifying headers/blocks.
- The method GetBlockHashesFromHash in Header/Block/Lightchain was only used by tests. It
is now removed from the API.
- The method GetTdByHash internally looked up the number before calling GetTd(hash, num).
In many cases, callers already had the number, and used this method just because it has a
shorter name. I have removed the method to make the API surface smaller.
This change removes misuses of sync.WaitGroup in BlockChain. Before this change,
block insertion modified the WaitGroup counter in order to ensure that Stop would wait
for pending operations to complete. This was racy and could even lead to crashes
if Stop was called at an unfortunate time. The issue is resolved by adding a specialized
'closable' mutex, which prevents chain modifications after stopping while also
synchronizing writers with each other.
