cmd/evm: benchmarking via `statetest` command + filter by name, index and fork
When evm statetest --bench is specified, benchmark the execution similarly to evm run. It will explicitly error if there is more than one matched subtest to be executed (new statetest flags are added to filter which tests are ran).
Breaks the state test runner API. But I figure that we are the only consumers of this API, so it's not a big problem?
Sorry -- I know I approved it earlier, and I came around to merge it now, but then I found some more things that could be improved :)
Tried to re-run the exact test you posted from goevmlab: ~/go/src/github.com/holiman/goevmlab/examples/sstore_static/sstore_test.json but it appears that it isn't in the repo.
Running a separate test shows no measurable performance difference between the latest changes and master branch.
