Master tracker for snap sync

[scorbajio]

See #2100 and #1848 for work done up to this point and resources on snap sync.

Starting with a new master tracker ticket for continuing work on snap sync. We currently have the ability to perform a static sync. Next step is to support a moving sync.

• merge client: add trienode fetcher for snap sync #2623
  • Refactor encoding module with a focus on function naming and deduplication
  • Unit testing
• Simulated testing client: add trienode fetcher for snap sync #2623
• Integration: client: decouple skeleton from beacon sync #3028 client: integrate snapsync on experimental basis #3031 statemanager: small refactor to get storage objects for snapsync #3033
• Trie Healing Snap sync moving root/healing implementation #3332
• Devnet and Mainnet testing
• Benchmarking
• Verkle snap sync planning and implementation as followup

You should benchmark the differences in this instantation of the trie using leveldb versus just removing that leveldb from the trie constructor (which would then default to using the MapDB from our util library. My suspicion is that the map DB is slightly faster.

Okay, so here's some benchmarking for mapdb vs leveldb. Here's my benchmarking script:

import { Trie } from '@ethereumjs/trie'
import { randomBytes } from 'crypto'
//@ts-ignore
import * as bench from 'micro-bmark'

import { LevelDB } from './level'
const { mark, compare, run } = bench // Or, use as such
const trieOps = async (trie: Trie) => {
  const x = new Uint8Array(300)
  for await (const _l of x) {
    await trie.put(randomBytes(32), randomBytes(32))
  }
}
run(async () => {
  await mark('mapdb', 100, async () => trieOps(new Trie()))
  await mark('level', 100, async () => trieOps(new Trie({ db: new LevelDB() })))
})

I'm using micro-bmark as my benchmark tool here so you'll have to install that. But, the results seem reasonably convincing to me for switching from the leveldb to mapdb:

-------
Benchmarking
mapdb x 16 ops/sec @ 60ms/op ± 1.42% (min: 52ms, max: 89ms)
level x 14 ops/sec @ 68ms/op ± 1.48% (min: 61ms, max: 104ms)

-------
Benchmarking
mapdb x 18 ops/sec @ 53ms/op ± 1.38% (min: 49ms, max: 76ms)
level x 15 ops/sec @ 63ms/op ± 1.45% (min: 58ms, max: 95ms)
