eth/tracers: refactor transaction creation and improve bad block setup

This commit refactors the transaction creation logic in `createTestTransactions` to use a range loop for better readability. It also updates the bad block setup to use the latest parent block's properties consistently. Additionally, it removes unused functions and comments to clean up the code.
