Reenable TX Outcome Checks for Replay Tests (#1566)
(Block Capture) This updates the block capture debugging facility. This allows one to generate captures from running tests locally. The updates simply improve the generated capture filenames.
(Replay Files) This renames the replay test files so that they all indicate whether or not they are mainnet or sepolia blocks. This also renames those which represent a single block to avoid the hyphonated notation. For example, 123-123.json.gz is renamed to 123.json.gz
(Replay Outcomes) This updates the record TX outcomes in the replay test files to correctly follow mainnet. This was done by playing the replays back through the ReplayExecutionEnvironment and the recording the outcomes using the BlockCapturer.
(Misc) The BesuPlugin interface has changed slightly, with BesuContext being deprecated in favour of ServiceManager. This simply updates the various plugins used by the linea tracer to this new API. Most of the changes were straightforward.
