Better thread management

[hai-rise]

• A thread pool (of parked threads) may work better. Early experiments with rayon were very poor, so we may need to roll a specialized implementation.
• We should start post-processing as soon as the scheduler flags completion, instead of waiting for the scoped threads to join (very sad tail-end latency).
• We should re-consider exiting idle threads early like having no new work after 100 iterations.

@hai-rise Why rayon has a poor performance, what's the bottleneck?

@byhashdong I didn't have time to inspect; just replaced thread::scope with rayon::scope and saw the benchmarks got much slower. I'd love to add a rayon thread pool to the new Pevm struct (didn't exist back then) and retry it. Kinda similar to how Aptos's doing it:

I can create a dedicated issue for the experiment if you're interested in it 🙏.

Sure, I would like to study it. Please assign it to me!
