PR removes a restriction introduced in #863 that disallows commons with custom genesis settings unless their hardforks are set to
chainstart
.This is blocking integration of the
block
module in the Hardhat testrpc because they set a custom common with special gas limits, chainId, etc as an initial step on launch, but need to run on arbitrary hardforks.https://github.com/nomiclabs/hardhat/blob/579d44a105d6a8323d270ea55876c6694c212316/packages/hardhat-core/src/internal/hardhat-network/provider/utils/makeCommon.ts#L20-L42
Perhaps this restriction should be preserved but gated behind a flag - not sure. Am opening in the simplest form for further discussion.
