AvalancheGo Compatibility

The plugin version is updated to 40 and is compatible with AvalancheGo version v1.13.1.

Breaking changes

• Updated dockerhub image name to avaplatform/subnet-evm_avalanchego and tags to accommodate the new versioning scheme: {subnet-evm version}_{avalanchego version} (#1566)

Features

• Major refactor to use libevm for EVM execution, database access, types & chain configuration. This improves maintainability and enables keeping up with upstream changes more easily. (#1501)
• Wrapped database with corruptabledb to prevent corruption of the database. (#1565)
• Updated golang version to 1.23.9 (#1577)

Fixes

• Fixed a bug in mempool where the min fee was not updated after restart (#1594)
