EVM Node: Make the sequencer mode use the read-only context for RPCs
This changeset has several short term benefits
- Relying on the read-write
Evm_contextmodule to implement the RPC services means that everytime we need to checkout an EVM state, we need to go through the worker. - This is simpler, and remove code.
- We want to move towards spawning RPC nodes anyway, and this is a move in that direction.
Semantically, this is a no-op patch, but pragramtically, it is possible that
RPCs targeting the latest state becomes a bit slower.
