The EIP150Hash was an idea where, after the fork, we hardcoded the forked hash as an extra defensive mechanism. It wasn't really used, since forks weren't contentious and for all the various testnets and private networks it's been a hassle to have around.
This change removes that config field.

Makes clear the distinction between Finalize and FinalizedAndAssemble:
- In Finalize function, a series of state operations are applied according to consensus rules. The statedb is mutated and the root hash can be checked and compared afterwards.
This function should be used in block processing(receive afrom network and apply it locally) but not block generation.
- In FinalizeAndAssemble function, after applying state mutations, the block is also to be assembled with the latest
state root computed, updating the header.
This function should be used in block generation only.
This change implements withdrawals as specified in EIP-4895.

* consensus: use the maxGasLimit constant to check the header.GasLimit to avoid creating new variables repeatedly
* consensus: check the header.GasLimit by the public constant MaxGasLimit
* consensus: check the header.GasLimit by the constant MaxGasLimit
This PR fixes a problem which arises on clique networks when there is a network stall. Previously, the worker packages were tracked, even if the sealing engine decided not to seal the block (due to clique rules about recent signing). These tracked-but-not-sealed blocks kept building up in memory.
This PR changes the situation so the sealing engine instead returns an error, and the worker can thus un-track the package.
This removes some code:
- The clique engine calculated the snapshot twice when verifying headers/blocks.
- The method GetBlockHashesFromHash in Header/Block/Lightchain was only used by tests. It
is now removed from the API.
- The method GetTdByHash internally looked up the number before calling GetTd(hash, num).
In many cases, callers already had the number, and used this method just because it has a
shorter name. I have removed the method to make the API surface smaller.
This is the initial implementation of EIP-1559 in packages core/types and core.
Mining, RPC, etc. will be added in subsequent commits.

The PR makes use of the stacktrie, which is is more lenient on resource consumption, than the regular trie, in cases where we only need it for DeriveSha
This change introduces garbage collection for the light client. Historical
chain data is deleted periodically. If you want to disable the GC, use
the --light.nopruning flag.
