bug: l2 block generation must be deterministic

How to debug:

since we can persist GlobalState to sled db now, we can

(1) add a field PersistOption { dir: String, persist_every_n: usize }, if !dir.is_empty(), for every l2 block, if block_id % persist_every_n == 0, we dump the GlobalState to $dir/$block_id.db.
(2) set persist_every_n = 1, then run bash tests/global_state/test.sh and backup all the $dir/**.db
(3) rerun tests/global_state/test.sh.
(4) dump dbs in (2)(3) as txt json file, to check whether they are consistent. If not, great, we reproduced the bug. We can debug now...

will that be related to HashMap? I mean, for example, iterating maps in golang is non-deterministic....

The dumps are consistent.
