PR description

Support for block creation on networks running a pre-Byzantium fork is removed, after being deprecated for a few months. Besu on nodes that build blocks needs to be upgraded at least to the Byzantium fork.

The main reason is to simplify world state management during block creation, since before Byzantium for each selected transaction, the receipt must contain the root hash of the modified world state, and this does not play well with the new plugin features, optimization and future work on parallelism.

* Change precompile name in eth_config

The precompile names for bn254 were encoded as bn256, which is a widely
used but incorrect name. The EIP specified alt_bn128, for 128 bits of
security, but cryptographic analysis has shown the security to be less
than 128 bits, so the name referring to the field size is preferred.

This means running all the test cases within one warmup or exec iteration in an attempt to invalidate CPU caches.

Requires tracking exec timings in a map and calculating average at the end.

Reduce warmup iteration to 20_000 and execution iterations to 1000, which appears to be as stable as 100_000.
This helps reduces overall benchmark execution time (previously warmTime and execTime were prematurely reducing overall execution time).

Use SequencedMap to indicate test case ordering matters.

* Eliminate AbstractRLPInput abstraction to reduce technical debt (#8885)

Merge AbstractRLPInput (607 lines) and BytesValueRLPInput (84 lines) into a
single concrete class implementing RLPInput directly. This eliminates the
unnecessary abstraction layer where the abstract class had only one concrete
implementation.

Changes:
- Merged all AbstractRLPInput logic into BytesValueRLPInput
- Made previously protected methods private
- Removed AbstractRLPInput.java file
- All public APIs remain unchanged (zero breaking changes)
- All tests pass unchanged

Benefits:
- Eliminates 15-30 minutes investigation time per RLP modification
- Reduces cognitive load when working with RLP functionality
- Simplifies maintenance with single concrete implementation
- No performance or functionality impact

Fixes #8884

- Consolidate AbstractRLPOutput logic into BytesValueRLPOutput

completing the removal of premature abstractions in the RLP module.

Requires tracking exec timings in a map and calculating average at the end.

Reduce warmup iteration to 20_000 and execution iterations to 1000, which appears to be as stable as 100_000.
This helps reduces overall benchmark execution time (previously warmTime and execTime were prematurely reducing overall execution time).

Use SequencedMap to indicate test case ordering matters.

* Eliminate AbstractRLPInput abstraction to reduce technical debt (#8885)

Merge AbstractRLPInput (607 lines) and BytesValueRLPInput (84 lines) into a
single concrete class implementing RLPInput directly. This eliminates the
unnecessary abstraction layer where the abstract class had only one concrete
implementation.

Changes:
- Merged all AbstractRLPInput logic into BytesValueRLPInput
- Made previously protected methods private
- Removed AbstractRLPInput.java file
- All public APIs remain unchanged (zero breaking changes)
- All tests pass unchanged

Benefits:
- Eliminates 15-30 minutes investigation time per RLP modification
- Reduces cognitive load when working with RLP functionality
- Simplifies maintenance with single concrete implementation
- No performance or functionality impact

Fixes #8884

* Eliminate AbstractRLPOutput abstraction to reduce technical debt (#8890)

- Consolidate AbstractRLPOutput logic into BytesValueRLPOutput
- Remove unnecessary inheritance layer with single implementation
- Maintain identical public API and functionality
- Zero breaking changes to 150+ usage sites across codebase

This follows the same pattern as recent AbstractRLPInput elimination,
completing the removal of premature abstractions in the RLP module.
