This doesn't fix all go-critic warnings, just the most serious ones.

* eth,rpc: allow for flag configured timeouts for eth_call

* lint: account for package-local import order

* cr: rename `rpc.calltimeout` to `rpc.evmtimeout`

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.

* params: changed CatalystBlock to TerminalTotalDifficulty

* eth/catalyst: comment out unused code

This fixes a data race on worker.current by moving the call to StopPrefetcher
into the main loop.

The commit also contains fixes for two other races in unit tests of unrelated packages.

This ensures that all miner goroutines have exited before stopping the blockchain.

Fixes #23681

After the fix I get the address 0x6d6d02e83c4ced98204e20126acf27e9d87b8af2 for the
tx mentioned in the ticket, which agrees with etherscan.

This PR adds a method to the debug namespace, to iterate over the blocks and check where we have the roots on disk.

The test did not synchronize with per-case goroutines, and thus didn't notice
that some tests were just hanging. This change adds missing synchronization
and fixes the broken tests.

* eth/tracers: fix calltracer fault handling

* eth/tracers: fix calltracer indentation

* Simplify peer known block/txns cache

* Address minor changes

* Add more minor comments

* Minor changes from review

This PR fixes an issue in traceChain, where the statedb Commit operation was performed asynchronously with dereference-operations agains the underlying trie.Database instance. Due to how the reference counting works within the trie database (where parent count is recursively updated when new parents are added), doing dereferencing in the middle of Commit can cause the refcount to become wrong, leading to an inconsistent state. 

This was fixed by doing Commit/Deref from the same routine.  

* core/types: rm extranous check in test

* core/rawdb: add lightweight types for block logs

* core/rawdb,eth: use lightweight accessor for log filtering

* core/rawdb: add bench for decoding into rlpLogs

This PR implements a new debug method, which I've talked briefly about to some other client developers. It allows the caller to obtain the intermediate state roots for a block (which might be either a canon block or a 'bad' block).

* eth/tracers: add re-write of 4byte tracer using enter/exit

* eth/tracers: fix 4byte indent

This change introduces 2 new optional methods; `enter()` and `exit()` for js tracers, and makes `step()` optiona. The two new methods are invoked when entering and exiting a call frame (but not invoked for the outermost scope, which has it's own methods). Currently these are the data fields passed to each of them:

    enter: type (opcode), from, to, input, gas, value
    exit: output, gasUsed, error

The PR also comes with a re-write of the callTracer. As a backup we keep the previous tracing script under the name `callTracerLegacy`. Behaviour of both tracers are equivalent for the most part, although there are some small differences (improvements), where the new tracer is more correct / has more information.

Constuct -> Construct

Revert "eth, internal/ethapi: make RPC block miner field show block sealer correctly (#23312)" (#23466)

This reverts commit 57feabea.

This reverts commit c368f728.

* eth/gasprice: cache feeHistory results

* eth/gasprice: changed feeHistory block count limitation

* eth/gasprice: do not use embedded struct in blockFees

* eth/gasprice: fee processing logic cleanup

* eth/gasprice: purge feeHistory cache at chain reorgs

Makes the RPC block return the POA sealer for clique blocks on the 'miner' field (was previously zeroes)

This adds a check to verify that a sender-account does not have code, which means that the codehash is either `emptyCodeHash` _OR_ not present. The latter occurs IFF the sender did not previously exist, a situation which can only occur with zero cost gasprices. 

* internal/ethapi/api: use hexutil.uint for blockCount parameter instead of int for feeHistory

* return hex value for oldestBlock instead of number

* return uint64 from oracle.resolveBlockRange

* eth/gasprice: fixed test

When processing a transaction with London fork rules, EIP-1559 mandates
checking that the sender must have sufficient balance to cover gas * gasFeeCap.

In the EIP's pseudocode, this check happens after the value transferred by the
transaction has already been deducted. However, in go-ethereum, the balance
has not yet been updated when the check happens, and therefore needs to be
added explicitly.
