What I did
Background: The failing call in the test in the linked issue was actually from a proxy-check on the contract, and not one the actual project's contract logic.
fix: handle recursion error in getting a contract type when eth call fails
BUT that was actually not the main problem (but still was good to fix).
The main problem is that tracing-features, including the intense exception handling one expects from failed calls, should be skipped altogether for proxy checks, and the mostly were thankfully except in this one spot.
perf: The fixing of this bug should be a rather nice performance upgrade because this means before, all failed proxy checks were fetching contract-types and preparing traces (not calling trace RPCs but doing everything else but)
fixes: #2206
