This pull request enhances the block prefetcher by executing transactions
in parallel to warm the cache alongside the main block processor.
Unlike the original prefetcher, which only executes the next block and
is limited to chain syncing, the new implementation can be applied to any
block. This makes it useful not only during chain sync but also for regular
block insertion after the initial sync.

This pull request ports some changes from the main state snapshot
integration one, specifically introducing the flat state tracking in
pathdb.
Note, the tracked flat state changes are only held in memory and won't
be persisted in the disk. Meanwhile, the correspoding state retrieval in
persistent state is also not supported yet. The states management in
disk is more complicated and will be implemented in a separate pull
request.
