This is a rewrite of the build system with `jbuilder`, with just a
minimal toplevel Makefile for backward compatibility.
This first patch preserves the project architecture, we only gain
proper dependencies handling and always up-to-date `.merlin` files.
A latter patch may split the project in smaller "sub-package",
i.e. multiple `.opam` files.
The embedded versions of the economic protocol are now compiled with
`jbuilder` instead of `tezos-protocol-compiler`, potentially allowing
proper inlining at the cost of slightly-less-stricter
sandboxing. Nevertheless, dynamically loaded protocol are still
compiled with the `tezos-protocol-compiler` and thus strictly
sandboxed ; and a CI rule also checks the proper sandboxing of
embedded protocols.

Let's get serious. The full index of operations is not sustainable in
the production code. We now only keep the index of operations not yet
in the chain (i.e. the mempool/prevalidation). Operations from the
chain are now only accesible through a block. For instance, see the
RPC:
/blocks/<hash>/proto/operations
