Motivation
Remove unneeded RLP encoding from key/values in libmdbx / redb storage
The database tables are completly private so we don't need to use rlp encoding at all, avoiding possible perfomance costs by storing as bytes directly where possible.
Complex types like entire blocks remain as RLP, future improvements could be made, like changing to a possibly more perfomant encoding like bincode.
