reth debug

Various debug routines

Commands:
  execution         Debug the roundtrip execution of blocks as well as the generated data
  merkle            Debug the clean & incremental state root calculations
  in-memory-merkle  Debug in-memory state root calculation
  build-block       Debug block building
  help              Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options:
      --chain <CHAIN_OR_PATH>
