h/t @mkalinin for the alternative idea to #23
--
Instead of gating pre-fork requests via the computed fee, Mikhail had the idea that we can just revert if during the calculation we find the current excess value to be
0xff..ff
. It's a much smaller amount of overhead versus using a separate storage slot to signal the fork has passed, but also avoid the possibility of retriggering the reset condition post-fork.
