* Fix tests due to merging
* Remove TotalDifficulty trait
* Do not pass FinalizationInfo to Engine
If there's finalized blocks in from route, choose the old branch without calling `Engine::fork_choice`.
* Fix compile
* Fix unused import
* Remove is_to_route_finalized
When no block reorg passes a finalized block, this variable is always false.
* Address format grumbles
* Fix docs: mark_finalized returns None if block hash is not found
`blockchain` mod does not yet have an Error type, so we still temporarily use None here.
