This change introduces a breaking change to miner.etherbase is configured.

Previously, users did not need to explicitly set the  etherbase address via flag, since 'first' local account was used as etherbase automatically. This change removes the  "default first account" feature.

In Proof-of-stake world, the fee recipient address is provided by CL, and not configured in Geth any more - meaning that miner.etherbase is mostly for legacy networks(pow, clique networks etc).

This PR introduces a node scheme abstraction. The interface is only implemented by `hashScheme` at the moment, but will be extended by `pathScheme` very soon.

Apart from that, a few changes are also included which is worth mentioning:

-  port the changes in the stacktrie, tracking the path prefix of nodes during commit
-  use ethdb.Database for constructing trie.Database. This is not necessary right now, but it is required for path-based used to open reverse diff freezer

* miner: exit loop when downloader Done or Failed

Following the logic of the comment at the method,
this fixes a regression introduced at 7cf56d6f
, which would allow external parties to DoS with
blocks, preventing mining progress.

This helper function would return an affirmation

This was imprecise; it return false positives
by not waiting initially for an 'updated' value.

expected.

* miner: add test describing expectations for downloader/mining events

We expect that once the downloader emits a DoneEvent,
signaling a successful sync, that subsequent StartEvents
are not longer permitted to stop the miner.

This prevents a security vulnerability where forced syncs via
fake high blocks would stall mining operation.

* miner: use 'canStop' state to fix downloader event handling

- Break downloader event handling into event
separating Done and Failed events. We need to
treat these cases differently since a DoneEvent
should prevent the miner from being stopped on
subsequent downloader Start events.

- Use canStop state to handle the one-off
case when a downloader first succeeds.

* miner: alternate fix for miner-flaw
Co-authored-by: meows <b5c6@protonmail.com>

Fixes a regression introduced in #21536

This PR changes several different things:

- Adds test cases for the miner loop
- Stops the worker if it wasn't already stopped in worker.Close()
- Uses channels instead of atomics in the miner.update() loop
