## Why this should be merged
There are 3 places at which we perform the same, sensitive logic to
access registered payloads and as we modify more types this is likely to
expand. (e.g. `types.Header`).
## How this works
Introduces `pseudo.Accessor` to abstract the reusable code.
## How this was tested
Existing unit tests. Note that the `types.StateAccount` tests needed a
minor refactor to provide the assertions with access to the
`ExtraPayloads[T]` without introducing generic types anywhere.
## Why this should be merged
Consolidates duplicated logic. Similar rationale to #84.
## How this works
New `register.AtMostOnce[T]` type is responsible for limiting calls to
`Register()`.
## How this was tested
Existing unit tests of `params`. Note that the equivalent functionality
in `types` wasn't tested but now is.
## Why this should be merged
Allows for a drop-in replacement of `snapshot.Tree` (i.e. one that uses
block hashes instead of state roots). This is intended as a temporary
solution while we investigate having the state root affected by the
block hash to remove path ambiguity.
## How this works
Introduction of:
1. `state.SnapshotTree` interface to match methods required on
`snapshot.Tree` as used by `state.StateDB`; and
2. `stateconf` package for variadic options plumbed by
`StateDB.Commit()` through to `SnapshotTree.Update()`.
Although variadic (to maintain function call-signature compatibility)
only the `stateconf.WithUpdatePayload(any)` is expected to be used.
Recipients of the options can access the payload with
`stateconf.ExtractUpdatePayload()`.
## How this was tested
Unit test demonstrating propagation of `stateconf.UpdateOption` payload.
## Why this should be merged
Performs trie prefetching concurrently, required for equivalent
performance with `coreth` / `subnet-evm` implementations.
## How this works
`StateDB.StartPrefetcher()` accepts variadic options (for backwards
compatibility of function signatures). An option to specify a
`WorkerPool` is provided which, if present, is used to call
`Trie.Get{Account,Storage}()`; the pool is responsible for concurrency
but does not need to be able to wait on the work as that is handled by
this change.
## How this was tested
Unit test demonstrating hand-off of work to a `WorkerPool` as well as
API-guaranteed ordering of events.
## Why this should be merged
Simplifies the creation and application of variadic options; this is
also applicable to many of my other WIP branches (e.g. `snapshot`).
## How this works
See `libevm/options/options.go`, which is very simple.
## How this was tested
Existing tests of `vm.PrecompileEnvironment.Call()`, which itself uses
refactored options.
## Why this should be merged
Cleans up loose ends after renaming the Go module. Also adds an
introduction to the README to explain the purpose of libevm.
## How this works
The changed hash in the workflow is just a fix (although a no-op). The
spaces after the copyright headers are to stop them from [showing up in
documentation](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/ava-labs/libevm@v1.13.14-0.1.0-rc.1/params).
## How this was tested
n/a
* refactor: abstract `testonly` package
* test: `StateAccount.Extra` via `trie.StateTrie.{Update,Get}Account()`
* chore: `types.TestOnlyClearRegisteredExtras()` at beginning of tests
This is a purely defensive approach in case future tests forget to clean up.
* chore: placate the linter
Some of the changes in the full commit history were merged into `libevm` as part of #43 in `336a289` and then merged back into this branch as `5b15698`. Cherry-picking commits was not possible as some touched both halves of the changes; the squash-merges will, however, make this convoluted history irrelevant.
* feat: `types.StateAccount` pseudo-generic payload
* feat: registration of `StateAccount` payload type
* chore: mark `eth/tracers/logger` flaky
* chore: copyright header + `gci`
* test: lock default `types.SlimAccount` RLP encoding
* feat: `vm.SlimAccount.Extra` from `StateAccount` equiv
* chore: placate the linter
* test: `pseudo.Type.EncodeRLP()`
* test: `pseudo.Type.DecodeRLP()`
* fix: `pseudo.Type.DecodeRLP()` with non-pointer type
* feat: `pseudo.Type.IsZero()` and `Type.Equal(*Type)`
* feat: `types.StateAccountExtra.DecodeRLP()`
* fix: remove unnecessary `StateAccountExtra.clone()`
* refactor: readability
* feat: `pseudo.Type.Format()` implements `fmt.Formatter`
All commits except the last two constitute PRs #43 and #44. The last two reverted files such that only changes to the `pseudo` and `ethtest` packages remain; once this is merged into the `libevm` branch then `libevm` will be merged into the branch for #44 too. Cherry-picking commits was not possible as some touched both halves of the changes; the squash-merges will, however, make this convoluted history irrelevant.

The allowlist hooks are included in this commit because they allow for the same functionality as stateful precompiles in `ava-labs/coreth` and `ava-labs/subnet-evm`.
