There were several problems related to dumping state.
- If a preimage was missing, even if we had set the `OnlyWithAddresses` to `false`, to export them anyway, the way the mapping was constructed (using `common.Address` as key) made the entries get lost anyway. Concerns both state- and blockchain tests.
- Blockchain test execution was not configured to store preimages.
This changes makes it so that the block test executor takes a callback, just like the state test executor already does. This callback can be used to examine the post-execution state, e.g. to aid debugging of test failures.
The Go authors updated golang/x/ext to change the function signature of the slices sort method.
It's an entire shitshow now because x/ext is not tagged, so everyone's codebase just
picked a new version that some other dep depends on, causing our code to fail building.
This PR updates the dep on our code too and does all the refactorings to follow upstream...
The state availability is checked during the creation of a state reader.
- In hash-based database, if the specified root node does not exist on disk disk, then
the state reader won't be created and an error will be returned.
- In path-based database, if the specified state layer is not available, then the
state reader won't be created and an error will be returned.
This change also contains a stricter semantics regarding the `Commit` operation: once it has been performed, the trie is no longer usable, and certain operations will return an error.
This changes the StorageTrie method to return an error when the trie
is not available. It used to return an 'empty trie' in this case, but that's
not possible anymore under PBSS.
This commit splits the eth package, separating the handling of eth and snap protocols. It also includes the capability to run snap sync (https://github.com/ethereum/devp2p/blob/master/caps/snap.md) , but does not enable it by default.

With this commit, core/state's access to the underlying key/value database is
mediated through an interface. Database errors are tracked in StateDB and
returned by CommitTo or the new Error method.
Motivation for this change: We can remove the light client's duplicated copy of
core/state. The light client now supports node iteration, so tracing and storage
enumeration can work with the light client (not implemented in this commit).
