Scope
This PR is introducing a layer transaction spammer script written in go that is integrated with the new transaction watcher. This script should be used to simulate a more realistic layer 1 environment and see how our node will behave in such a highly competitive environment.
Why?
This script should allow us to test "high traffic" on our local Ethereum nodes (mainly hardhat). During high traffic is expected that our node will start failing to send transactions. This script should be used to test how robust the retry mechanism will be in such situations.
Blocked by #11 (once it's merged, this PR should be rebased)
