triedb/pathdb: replace crit panic shim with error propagation through Flush
Addresses review finding I2.

The bintrieFlatCodec had a crit() helper whose doc claimed "delegates to
log.Crit" but whose body was panic(fmt.Sprintf(...)). A corrupt on-disk
stem blob would cause the buffer flush goroutine to panic, killing the
process. On restart the same blob would cause the same panic —
unrecoverable crash loop.

Fix: applyWrites now returns ([]byte, error) instead of panicking.
The Flush method on flatStateCodec gains an error return:
  (int, int) → (int, int, error)
The error propagates up through writeStates → stateSet.write →
buffer.flush → flushErr. A corrupted stem blob now causes a flush
failure that the database can react to instead of a crash loop.

The per-entry methods (WriteAccount, WriteStorage, DeleteAccount,
DeleteStorage) — which are NOT on the production flush path — use
log.Crit (the real function, not the deleted shim) on error, matching
the merkle codec's existing convention for unrecoverable corruption
at the per-entry level.

The crit shim is deleted entirely.
