This PR adds db tooling (geth db check-state-content) to verify the integrity of trie nodes. It iterates through the 32-byte key space in the database, which is expected to contain RLP-encoded trie nodes, addressed by hash.
* eth/protocols/snap: don't include empty snapshot slot slice
This PR fixes the snapshot storage serving handler. In snap protocol
the response is capped by the response size. Server can cutdown the
response if the accumulated byte size exceeds the local hard limit.
It means we can meet a special scenario that there is no storage slot
included for a requested account, but we attach the proof for this
account by mistake.
So in the prover side, when it meets a empty storage response but with
a valid proof proves there are some more slots left in the trie, then
requestor will reject this response and disconnect with server.
In this PR, if there is no storage slot served for the requested account,
then no proof should be attached as well.

Previously freezer has only been used for storing ancient chain data, while obviously it can be used more. This PR unties the chain data and freezer, keep the minimal freezer structure and move all other logic (like incrementally freezing block data) into a separate structure called ChainFreezer.
This PR also extends the database interface by adding a new ancient store function AncientDatadir which can return the root directory of ancient store. The ancient root directory can be used when we want to open some other ancient-stores (e.g. reverse diff freezer).
During mining, when a new head arrives and interrupts the block building, the block being built should not be commited (but discarded). Committing the interrupted block introduces unnecessary delay, and possibly causes miner to mine on the previous head, which could result in higher uncle rate.
* core: recover the state in SetChainHead if the head state is missing
* core: disable test logging
* core: address comment from martin
* core: improve log level in case state is recovered
