Etherlink/Kernel/Stage 2: reboot between blocks
What
Add a reboot between the application of blocks in the Etherlink kernel.
Why
When lots of blueprints are pending in the storage, as is currently happening on the testnet because the L1 chain stopped for a long time, executing a L1 level takes too much time. Adding reboots between L2 blocks spreads the catch upon several L1 levels.
It also opens the possibility to simplify the block production logic by factorizing the BIP-in-storage and the BIP-from-stored-blueprint cases.
