Updating how eth_gasPrice is calculated

[asoto-iov]

We are updating the logic about how the gas price data returned by the eth_gasPrice rpc method is calculated.

Description

The new behaviour is:

1. We need to check isFeeMarketWorking() in the GasPriceTracker class to figure out if recent blocks are full enough. If the method returns true then go to the item 2 below. Otherwise, eth_gasPrice should return lastBestBlock.getMinimumGasPrice() * minGasPriceMultiplier , where minGasPriceMultiplier is a configuration value and should be 1.1 by default ( 10% increment of min gas price).

2.If a market is working (isFeeMarketWorking() returns true) , then eth_gasPrice should return same results as it returns right now (no changes in this case).
