* WIP: rebase

* Make nullable fields use pointers

Add linter checks to GHA & Fix code to pass lints.
The linters added are:
- whitespace: Tool for detection of leading and trailing whitespace
- gosec: Inspects source code for security problems
- gci: Gci control golang package import order and make it always deterministic
- misspell: Finds commonly misspelled English words in comments
- gomnd: An analyzer to detect magic numbers

The file utils/utils.go is excluded from the checks of gomnd, as uses magic numbers through the code

- Update GHA lint.yml increasing timeout time to avoid GHA Lint errors
- Update common.BatchNum & common.Idx & common.Nonce usage in StateDB
- Add abstraction method of processTxs to StateDB
    - Which will be used by Synchronizer & BatchBuilder
