This PR implements eth/69. This protocol version drops the bloom filter
from receipts messages, reducing the amount of data needed for a sync
by ~530GB (2.3B txs * 256 byte) uncompressed. Compressed this will
be reduced to ~100GB
The new version also changes the Status message and introduces the
BlockRangeUpdate message to relay information about the available history
range.

Here we update the eth and snap protocol test suites with a new test chain,
created by the hivechain tool. The new test chain uses proof-of-stake. As such,
tests using PoW block propagation in the eth protocol are removed. The test suite
now connects to the node under test using the engine API in order to make it
accept transactions.
The snap protocol test suite has been rewritten to output test descriptions and
log requests more verbosely.
