Testing

Integration tool - supports mining of existing blocks. It moves Erigon to block X, does mine block X+1, then compare mined block with real block X+1 in db. To enable - just add --mine --miner.etherbase=<etherbase> flag to integration state_stages command:

./build/bin/integration state_stages --datadir=<datadir> --unwind=1 --unwind.every=2 --integrity.fast=false --integrity.slow=false --mine --miner.etherbase=<etherbase>
