Benchmark Rust EVM and REVM

Simple transaction

For each EVM,

• we'll create an external account and a contract account holding the contract sample.sol
• micro bench the add(1) method for 5 seconds
• micro bench the add(0xc7) method for 5 seconds

To run the benchmark,

# To run benchmark test for revm
cargo run --release  --bin revm-bench

# To run benchmark test for rust-evm
cargo run --release  --bin rust-evm-bench

# To run benchmark test for go-evm
cd go-evm
go run main/main.go
