* trie: better use of hasher keccakState

* core/state/statedb: reduce allocations in getDeletedStateObject

* core/vm: reduce allocations in all call derivates

* core/vm: reduce allocations in call variants

- Make returnstack `uint32`
- Use a `sync.Pool` of `stack`s

* core/vm: fix tests

* core/vm: goimports

* core/vm: tracer fix + staticcall gas fix

* core/vm: add back snapshot to staticcall

* core/vm: review concerns + make returnstack pooled + enable returndata in traces

* core/vm: fix some test tracer method signatures

* core/vm: run gencodec, minor comment polish
