fix: decode EIP-7702 static-file transactions

[tac0turtle]

Summary

• delegate standard extended compact transaction identifiers to Reth's Ethereum decoder
• preserve the EvNode 0x76 compact identifier
• return a structured decompression error for unsupported uncompressed extended identifiers
• avoid a duplicate zstd decompression on compressed static-file reads
• add EIP-7702 compact and compressed static-file decoding regressions

This is backward-compatible with existing node volumes: on-disk EIP-7702 (0x04) transactions and receipts can be read without rebuilding static files.

Verification

• just check-all (format, all-target clippy, and full workspace tests)

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds zstd compressor wiring and updates compact transaction decoding. EIP-7702 now decodes and round-trips correctly. Unsupported extended identifiers return DecompressError instead of causing a panic.

Changes

Compact transaction decoding

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Compact type support Cargo.toml, crates/ev-primitives/Cargo.toml, crates/ev-primitives/src/tx.rs	The workspace and ev-primitives crate add reth-zstd-compressors. EvTxType::from_compact supports standard extended identifiers such as EIP-7702.
Decompression validation crates/ev-primitives/src/tx.rs	EvTxEnvelope::decompress validates compact identifiers before decoding. EIP-4844, EIP-7702, and EvNode remain supported. Unknown identifiers return DecompressError. Tests cover EIP-7702 roundtrips and unknown-type errors.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 23b52

EIP-7702 static-file decoding is restored, but compressed transaction reads now decompress each payload twice, increasing CPU use for historical scans and RPC queries. This performance regression should be addressed before merge.

- Around line 564-570: Update Compact::from_compact and the surrounding zstd
transaction decoding flow so the compressed payload is decompressed only once
and the resulting buffer is reused for identifier decoding and full transaction
parsing. Avoid the current preliminary decompressor call that reads only the
first byte, while preserving the existing compact decode error behavior and
handling for zstd-flagged transactions.
