This PR changes the way chainhook imports a Stacks node TSV into rocksdb.
Before, it loaded the entire canonical chinstate (including the full block JSON messages) onto a
VecDeque
in memory and then drained that data into rocksdb. This was a very memory intensive process which crashed our dev pods ever time it ran.Now, the process was changed to a
VecDeque
that only keeps the line numbers of the TSV where the block data exists, so it can later read blocks from the file 1 by 1 and insert them into rocksdb.
