Far Rim (v1.10.13)

Geth v1.10.13 is a scheduled maintenance release. It introduces a few polishes, though nothing major. Fixes wise, it does address a few thorns that affect a small portion of our users.

New features:

• Retrospectively enforce account nonces to be less than 2^64-1 (#23853).
• Configurable genesis gas limit in dev mode via dev.gaslimit (#23686).

• Implement the 4byte tracer natively in Go (#23882, #23916).
• Use faster freezer scanning when reiniting leveldb (#23612).
• Expose the gasUsed field in the evm command (#23919).
• Improve error messages in the freezer (#23901).

New fixes:

• Fix price filtering in tx pool to prevent low price legacy transaction from spamming the pool (#23855).
• Fix log retrievals for users with very old archive nodes having legacy database formats (#23879).
• Fix a snap sync issue where a malicious response could crash the syncing node (#23960).
• Fix a data race in the simulated backed's gas price suggestion (#23898).
• Fix receiptsRoot field name in the evm command output (#23924).
• Fix setHead when pointing it back to the genesis (#23949).
