This is an optimization that existed for verkle and the MPT, but that
got dropped during the rebase.
Mark the nodes that were modified as needing recomputation, and skip the
hash computation if this is not needed. Otherwise, the whole tree is
hashed, which kills performance.
The computation of `MAIN_STORAGE_OFFSET` was incorrect, causing the last
byte of the stem to be dropped. This means that there would be a
collision in the hash computation (at the preimage level, not a hash
collision of course) if two keys were only differing at byte 31.
GetStorage and DeleteStorage used GetBinaryTreeKey to compute the tree
key, while UpdateStorage used GetBinaryTreeKeyStorageSlot. The latter
applies storage slot remapping (header offset for slots <64, main
storage prefix for the rest), so reads and deletes were targeting
different tree locations than writes.
Replace GetBinaryTreeKey with GetBinaryTreeKeyStorageSlot in both
GetStorage and DeleteStorage to match UpdateStorage. Add a regression
test that verifies the write→read→delete→read round-trip for main
storage slots.
The `Witness` method was not implemented for the binary tree, which
caused `debug_excutionWitness` to panic. This PR fixes that.
Note that the `TransitionTrie` version isn't implemented, and that's on
purpose: more thought must be given to what should go in the global
witness.
Based on [EIP-7864](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7864), the tree
index should be 32 bytes instead of 31 bytes.
```
def get_tree_key(address: Address32, tree_index: int, sub_index: int):
# Assumes STEM_SUBTREE_WIDTH = 256
return tree_hash(address + tree_index.to_bytes(32, "little"))[:31] + bytes(
[sub_index]
)
```
In order to reduce the amount of code that is embedded into the keeper
binary, I am removing all the verkle code that uses go-verkle and
go-ipa. This will be followed by further PRs that are more like stubs to
replace code when the keeper build is detected.
I'm keeping the binary tree of course. This means that you will still
see `isVerkle` variables all over the codebase, but they will be renamed
when code is touched (i.e. this is not an invitation for 30+ AI slop
PRs).

This is broken off of #31730 to only focus on testing networks that
start with verkle at genesis.
The PR has seen a lot of work since its creation, and it now targets
creating and re-executing tests for a binary tree testnet without the
transition (so it starts at genesis). The transition tree has been moved
to its own package. It also replaces verkle with the binary tree for
this specific application.

Implement the binary tree as specified in [eip-7864](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7864).
This will gradually replace verkle trees in the codebase. This is only
running the tests and will not be executed in production, but will help
me rebase some of my work, so that it doesn't bitrot as much.
