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.
Drop the notions of uncles, and disables activities while syncing
- Disable activities (e.g. generate pending state) while node is syncing,
- Disable empty block submission (but empty block is still kept for payload building),
- Drop uncle notion since (ethash is already deprecated)
eth: make StorageRangeAt take a block hash or number
