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.

This PR implements changes related to
[EIP-6800](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-6800) and
[EIP-4762](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-4762) spec updates.
A TL;DR of the changes is that `Version`, `Balance`, `Nonce` and
`CodeSize` are encoded in a single leaf named `BasicData`. For more
details, see the [_Header Values_ table in
EIP-6800](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-6800#header-values).
The motivation for this was simplifying access event patterns, reducing
code complexity, and, as a side effect, saving gas since fewer leaf
nodes must be accessed.

This change allows the creation of a genesis block for verkle testnets. This makes for a chunk of code that is easier to review and still touches many discussion points.
