When managing geth, it is sometimes desirable to do a partial wipe; deleting state but retaining freezer data. A partial wipe can be somewhat tricky to accomplish.
This change implements the ability to perform partial wipe by making it possible to run geth removedb non-interactive, using command line options instead.
Original problem was caused by #28595, where we made it so that as soon as we start to sync, the root of the disk layer is deleted. That is not wrong per se, but another part of the code uses the "presence of the root" as an init-check for the pathdb. And, since the init-check now failed, the code tried to re-initialize it which failed since a sync was already ongoing.
The total impact being: after a state-sync has begun, if the node for some reason is is shut down, it will refuse to start up again, with the error message: `Fatal: Failed to register the Ethereum service: waiting for sync.`.
This change also modifies how `geth removedb` works, so that the user is prompted for two things: `state data` and `ancient chain`. The former includes both the chaindb aswell as any state history stored in ancients.

This change allows the creation of a genesis block for verkle testnets. This makes for a chunk of code that is easier to review and still touches many discussion points.
The state availability is checked during the creation of a state reader.
- In hash-based database, if the specified root node does not exist on disk disk, then
the state reader won't be created and an error will be returned.
- In path-based database, if the specified state layer is not available, then the
state reader won't be created and an error will be returned.
This change also contains a stricter semantics regarding the `Commit` operation: once it has been performed, the trie is no longer usable, and certain operations will return an error.
This change prints out more information about the problem, in the case where geth detects a gap between leveldb and ancients, so we can determine more exactly where the gap is (what the first missing is). Also prints out more metadata.

This PR does a few things.
It fixes a shutdown-order flaw in the chainfreezer. Previously, the chain-freezer would shutdown the freezer backend first, and then signal for the loop to exit. This can lead to a scenario where the freezer tries to fsync closed files, which is an error-conditon that could lead to exit via log.Crit.
It also makes the printout more detailed when truncating 'dangling' items, by showing the exact number instead of approximate MB.
This PR also adds calls to fsync files before closing them, and also makes the `db inspect` command slightly more robust.
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 change updates our urfave/cli dependency to the v2 branch of the library.
There are some Go API changes in cli v2:
- Flag values can now be accessed using the methods ctx.Bool,
ctx.Int, ctx.String, ... regardless of whether the flag is 'local' or
'global'.
- v2 has built-in support for flag categories. Our home-grown category
system is removed and the categories of flags are assigned as part of
the flag definition.
For users, there is only one observable difference with cli v2: flags must now
strictly appear before regular arguments. For example, the following command is
now invalid:
geth account import mykey.json --password file.txt
Instead, the command must be invoked as follows:
geth account import --password file.txt mykey.json
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.
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).
This PR groups all built-in network flags together and list them in the command as a whole.
And all database path flags(datadir, ancient) are also grouped, since usually these two are
used together.

This PR offers two more database sub commands for exporting and importing data.
Two exporters are implemented: preimage and snapshot data respectively.
The import command is generic, it can take any data export and import into leveldb.
The data format has a 'magic' for disambiguation, and a version field for future compatibility.
Adds suppor for passing regular strings to db `put`/`get`/`delete`, to avoid having to hex-encode when operating on fixed-key items like `SnapshotSyncStatus`, `SnapshotRecovery` etc.

This PR introduces:
- db.put to put a value into the database
- db.get to read a value from the database
- db.delete to delete a value from the database
- db.stats to check compaction info from the database
- db.compact to trigger a db compaction
It also moves inspectdb to db.inspect.
