// StateReplay replays a given message, assuming it was included in a block in the specified tipset.
// If no tipset key is provided, the appropriate tipset is looked up.
//
// If a tipset key is provided, and a replacing message is found on chain,
// the method will return an error saying that the message wasn't found
//
// If no tipset key is provided, the appropriate tipset is looked up, and if
// the message was gas-repriced, the on-chain message will be replayed - in
// that case the returned InvocResult.MsgCid will not match the Cid param
//
// If the caller wants to ensure that exactly the requested message was executed,
// they MUST check that InvocResult.MsgCid is equal to the provided Cid.
// Without this check both the requested and original message may appear as
// successfully executed on-chain, which may look like a double-spend.
//
// A replacing message is a message with a different CID, any of Gas values, and
// different signature, but with all other parameters matching (source/destination,
// nonce, params, etc.)
