Adds cli interface to allow reseting chain to a particular block (ope…

…nethereum#9782)

* added BlockChainReset trait, client impl, and cli interface

* show block hashes to be deleted and new best block, update best block in db, better cli interface

* delete BlockNumber from COL_EXTRA

* add TODO comment

* add BlockReciepts to imports

* refactor block_headers_from_best_block, better cli documentation

* exit gracefully if reset arg isn't supplied

* fix cli usage macro

* removed stray int literals

* use Vec::with_capacity

Co-Authored-By: seunlanlege <seunlanlege@gmail.com>

* cast n to usize

* correct imports

* make db reset arg required
