Just some minor optimizations I figured out a while ago. By using ReadBytes instead of
Bytes on the rlp stream, we can save the allocation of a temporary buffer for the typed tx
payload.
If kind == rlp.Byte, the size reported by Stream.Kind will be zero, but we need a buffer
of size 1 for ReadBytes. Since typed txs always have to be longer than 1 byte, we can just
return an error for kind == rlp.Byte.
There is a also a small change for Log: since the first three fields of Log are the ones that
should appear in the canon encoding, we can simply ignore the remaining fields via
struct tag. Doing this removes an indirection through the rlpLog type.

This PR drops the legacy receipt types, the freezer-migrate command and the startup check. The previous attempt #22852 at this failed because there were users who still had legacy receipts in their db, so it had to be reverted #23247. Since then we added a command to migrate legacy dbs #24028.
As of the last hardforks all users either must have done the migration, or used the --ignore-legacy-receipts flag which will stop working now.
This adds a tools.go file to import all command packages used for
go:generate. Doing so makes it possible to execute go-based code
generators using 'go run', locking in the tool version using go.mod.

This change makes use of the new code generator rlp/rlpgen to improve the
performance of RLP encoding for Header and StateAccount. It also speeds up
encoding of ReceiptForStorage using the new rlp.EncoderBuffer API.
The change is much less transparent than I wanted it to be, because Header and
StateAccount now have an EncodeRLP method defined with pointer receiver. It
used to be possible to encode non-pointer values of these types, but the new
method prevents that and attempting to encode unadressable values (even if
part of another value) will return an error. The error can be surprising and may
pop up in places that previously didn't expect any errors.
To make things work, I also needed to update all code paths (mostly in unit tests)
that lead to encoding of non-pointer values, and pass a pointer instead.

The encoding of Log and LogForStorage is exactly the same
now. After tracking it down it seems like #17106 changed the
storage schema of logs to be the same as the consensus
encoding.
Support for the legacy format was dropped in #22852 and if
I'm not wrong there's no reason anymore to have these two
equivalent types.
Since the RLP encoding simply contains the first three fields
of Log, we can also avoid creating a temporary struct for
encoding/decoding, and use the rlp:"-" tag in Log instead.
Note: this is an API change in core/types. We decided it's OK
to make this change because LogForStorage is an implementation
detail of go-ethereum and the type has zero uses outside of
package core/types.

Most of these methods did not contain all the relevant information
inside the object and were not using a similar formatting type.
Moreover, the existence of a suboptimal String method breaks usage
with more advanced data dumping tools like go-spew.
This significantly reduces the dependency closure of ethclient, which no
longer depends on core/vm as of this change.
All uses of vm.Logs are replaced by []*types.Log. NewLog is gone too,
the constructor simply returned a literal.
