Migrate to vm v7 and other relevant dependencies

[blitz-1306]

Preface

This is a PoC pull request to use https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/releases/tag/%40ethereumjs%2Fvm%407.0.0 and other relevant dependencies. List of VM changes can be found here.

Changes

• Update dependencies.
• Add .nvmrc to switch to NodeJS v18 LTS (required by the VM package).
• All Buffer types changed to Uint8Array due to upstream changes.
  • All entries of Buffer.from() are replaced with toBytes() or hexToBytes(). This is not necessarily correct, due to these functions require 0x prefix at the beginning of the input string.
  • All entries of Buffer.toString("hex") are replaced with bytesToHex(). This is not necessarily correct, due to these function adds 0x prefix at the beginning of the result string. This may cause issues.
  • Bytes equality is now done with equalsBytes() instead of Buffer.equals().
• Functions getBytecodeHashHacky() and getDeployedBytecodeMdInfo() are simplified to convert Uint8Array input to string and use single logic branch. This is due to Uint8Array do not have method readInt16BE(), also lastIndexOf() is unable to find index of slice.
• VM removed EEI from the package. Its functionality is now provided by StateManager. So there are related adjustments to respect this change.
• Transaction data is now passed with TypedTransaction type.
• RLP is now released as a standalone dependency and therefore used in such way.

Concerns

• Codebase is still not runnable due to VM package does not expose inner types in pexports section of package.json](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/blob/c47d2c7351f04f35744de0f2082c37d5f2d2afd0/packages/vm/package.json#L25-L29) of CJS and ESM. This makes makes ts-node and mocha to complain and crash.

Error [ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED]: Package subpath './dist/cjs/evm' is not defined by "exports" in sol-dbg/node_modules/@ethereumjs/evm/package.json

• As mentioned above, there are several cases, when code should be debugged (regading 0x of hexToBytes() and bytesToHex()).

Regards.
