Previously, the assigned prover can only submit the very first proof (to create the verify first transition) within the proving window. It is disallowed to contest/prove blocks in any other situations.
This PR enables the assigned prover to perform actions that all other address can. This means if the assigned prover submits a valid proof right after the proving window expires, its proof will be accepted, but its liveness bond won't be returned.
This PR also introduce a struct to cache state variables.
