Proposed changes

ethereum/go-ethereum#23952

This simplifies interpreter loop exit condition to just err != nil. This catches:

  • reverting instructions (i.e. just REVERT),
  • halting instructions (by them returning errStopToken).

Also operation.jumps check is removed by setting pc - 1 inside the jump instruction and doing pc++ in the loop unconditionally.

Finally, instructions manipulating return data are handling this themselves. This eliminates another operation.returns check.
