Add benchmarking tool

[rakita]

This seems like a great way to compare all evm's by opcode:

additionaly we could add testing benchmark of our own so that we have faster build/test iteration when optimizing things.

Hi,
I'm new to Rust but I'm trying to write simple code to benchmark arbitrary bytecode on REVM.
I saw examples that are already in the repo but they all assume creating a contract and running a transaction. Is there a simpler way to just run raw bytecode on EVM? Could you provide a simple example of how to do it?

I managed to put the bytecode into the contract object and I'm running Interpreter with transaction data set to an empty string.
Seems to be executing opcodes correctly.

Will close this as it is an old issue,
