eth/tracers: abort evm execution when trace is aborted #23580

This PR tries to fix #23397. Geth goes OOM after
heavy transaction tracing.

The tracer has a Stop method, which sets a flag. This flag causes the tracer to stop doing work, as in no longer invoking
the javascript engine for each opcode. However, it does not actually stop the evm execution.

I tested with a little traceCall where we just run in a loop, burning 10M gas:

> a=eth.accounts[0];for(i=0;i<10; i++){try{debug.traceCall({from:a, input: "0x5b600056", gas:"0x989680"}, "latest", {"tracer": "callTracer", "timeout": "1ms"})  }catch(e){}}

If I run this on master, with some added printout when the trace ends:

So even if we call Stop() after ~1ms, it takes ~40ms for the execution to complete.

With the call to env.Cancel, the evm actually aborts after max 1000 more steps. If the cause of the OOMs are
lingering evm executions piling up, then this PR should fix it (or at least make it a lot more robust).

Actually, while I think this change is correct and good, I don't think 'lingering' evm executions can happen. The RPC call will only ever return once the evm execution is finished.

SGTM, this change is probably good regardless of whether it fixes the underlying problem

* eth/tracers: implement debug.intermediateRoots (ethereum#23594)

This PR implements a new debug method, which I've talked briefly about to some other client developers. It allows the caller to obtain the intermediate state roots for a block (which might be either a canon block or a 'bad' block).

* eth/tracers: avoid unsyncronized mutations on trie database (ethereum#23632)

This PR fixes an issue in traceChain, where the statedb Commit operation was performed asynchronously with dereference-operations agains the underlying trie.Database instance. Due to how the reference counting works within the trie database (where parent count is recursively updated when new parents are added), doing dereferencing in the middle of Commit can cause the refcount to become wrong, leading to an inconsistent state. 

This was fixed by doing Commit/Deref from the same routine.

* core,eth: call frame tracing (ethereum#23087)

This change introduces 2 new optional methods; `enter()` and `exit()` for js tracers, and makes `step()` optiona. The two new methods are invoked when entering and exiting a call frame (but not invoked for the outermost scope, which has it's own methods). Currently these are the data fields passed to each of them:

    enter: type (opcode), from, to, input, gas, value
    exit: output, gasUsed, error

The PR also comes with a re-write of the callTracer. As a backup we keep the previous tracing script under the name `callTracerLegacy`. Behaviour of both tracers are equivalent for the most part, although there are some small differences (improvements), where the new tracer is more correct / has more information.
