We have a method to retrieve a block in RLP form (
debug.GetBlockRlp
), but sometimes we only need the header. Retrieving and managing the entire block RLP in that case can be unwieldy on mainnet tx counts. This PR introduces aGetHeaderRlp
counterpart that only retrieves and serializes the header for use cases where that's enough.
