feat: compute state root in client instead of runtime

Compute Global State Root in Client Instead of Runtime

Description

The goal of this issue is to move the computation of the global state root from the runtime to the client. This computation is a heavy process that consumes a lot of time and resources in the block production. By moving it to an asynchronous task, we can speed up block production.

Background

Currently, the global state root is computed as defined in the Starknet specs and fed into the block. A potential solution to speed up this process would be to include the state root of block N - 1 in the block header N, instead of the state root of the block N. However, for this to save time, it would need to be done in an asynchronous manner.

Tasks

1. Research: Understand the current process of computing the global state root and how it can be moved to the client.
2. Design: Create a design document detailing how the global state root computation will be moved to the client and made asynchronous. This should include any necessary changes to the existing architecture.
3. Implementation: Implement the design, ensuring that the new process for computing the global state root is fully functional and improves block production speed.
4. Testing: Write comprehensive tests to ensure the new process for computing the global state root works as expected and does not introduce any regressions.
5. Documentation: Update the project documentation to reflect the new process for computing the global state root.

Acceptance Criteria

• The global state root is computed in the client instead of the runtime.
• The computation of the global state root is done asynchronously.
• The implementation passes all tests.
• The project documentation is updated to reflect the new process for computing the global state root.

@hhamud thanks but @antiyro is currently on it
