Thanks for tackling this @felix314159!

Just a general remark, I prefer smaller PRs and would have preferred if the test refactor from solc to Opcodes was a separate PR. In this case the task list in the issue could have guided you on this path. But we all do it (I'm guilty of it in #1765; I should have done a preliminary refactor PR first).

I think I wasn't aware that the static tests require solc (it's obvious in hindsight, but I thought they only required lllc).

Ups, was trigger happy with the "Submit Review" button and submitted before I was finished. Here's the rest of the review :)

Docs also need to remove all references to solc-select/yul (installation, installation troubleshooting, contributing?).

Context on why a coverage fixer test was added: by removing tests/homestead/yul_example.py we lost coverage of SWAP3 (you must compile with --evm-version homestead to get bytecode that uses SWAP3 here). since that file was just a basic example, the coverage loss was not related to the complex yul port from the other test, which is good news.

Hi Felix, thanks for improving this! I ran out of time before I managed to complete a comprehensive review this morning. But here's some intermediate feedback, will prioritize this on Monday!

LGTM, thanks for your huge effort on this. And your willingness to go the extra mile to make this PR atomic with updated docs.

One comment on test_coverage_script_fix: I think we can remove this function safely, if you agree, please do that and then we can get this merged!

Note: when i run uv run fill ./tests/static --fill-static-tests --evm-bin=/home/$USER/Documents/evmone/build/bin/evmone-t8n -vv -s --clean it collects 0 items. Gotta figure out why it doesn't find the static tests anymore

Edit: Next commit fixes this
