eth/tracers: move tracing APIs into eth/tracers #22161

I think we should use the existing EthAPIBackend as the backend object for TracerAPI.
It's almost compatible, just need to add the StateAtBlock and StateAtTransaction methods to it.
The TracerAPI should be renamed to API because it's now in the package "tracers".

Will it make sense to rename the namespace to trace?
Though we can't drop existing namespace support for debug_trace* methods easily as some users might use it in their scripts.

Not sure, trace_traceTransaction sounds weird to me.

Maybe we can rename to trace_transaction as we have their own namespace now.

We can't rename these methods without keeping the original ones alive, since they have been around for quite a while.

I was thinking of having proxy methods of the old ones to the new ones for a while (until next major release?) with a deprecated warning.

I'm generally in favor of renaming because the debug namespace is quite messy and also includes some dangerous functionality that should never be exposed, such as debug_traceBlockToFile. If we can make a 'safe' subset of tracing APIs, it would be great to have them available in a dedicated namespace.

This moves the tracing RPC API implementation to package eth/tracers. By doing so, package eth no longer depends on tracing and the duktape JS engine. The change also enables tracing using the light client. All tracing methods work with the light client, but it's a lot slower compared to using a full node.
