This PR makes it possible to modify the flush interval time via RPC. On one extreme, `0s`, it would act as an archive node. If set to `1h`, means that after one hour of effective block processing time, the trie would be flushed. If one block takes 200ms, this means that a flush would occur every `5*3600=18000` blocks -- however, if the memory size of the cached states grows too large, it will flush sooner.
Essentially, this makes it possible to configure the node to be more or less "archive:ish", and without restarting the node while reconfiguring it.
This PR simplifies the logic of chain tracer and also adds the unit tests.
The most important change has been made in this PR is the state management. Whenever a tracing state is acquired there is a corresponding release function be returned as well. It must be called once the state is used up, otherwise resource leaking can happen.
And also the logic of state management has been simplified a lot. Specifically, the state provider(eth backend, les backend) should ensure the state is available and referenced. State customers can use the state according to their own needs, or build other states based on the given state. But once the release function is called, there is no guarantee of the availability of the state.

Fixes#23681
After the fix I get the address 0x6d6d02e83c4ced98204e20126acf27e9d87b8af2 for the
tx mentioned in the ticket, which agrees with etherscan.
This removes the duplicated definition of eth_chainID
in package eth and updates the definition in internal/ethapi
to treat chain ID as a bigint.

This moves the tracing RPC API implementation to package eth/tracers.
By doing so, package eth no longer depends on tracing and the duktape JS engine.
The change also enables tracing using the light client. All tracing methods work with the
light client, but it's a lot slower compared to using a full node.
This changes the chainID RPC method to return an error when EIP-155 is not yet
active at the current block height. It used to simply return zero in this case, but
that's confusing.
This new API allows reading accounts and their content by address range.
