What happened here, is that we first applied two identical transactions, so the second one was rejected.
What happened here, is that we first applied two identical transactions, so the second one was rejected.
Then, taking the poststate alloc as the input for the next state, we tried again to include
the same two transactions: this time, both failed due to too low nonce.

In order to meaningfully chain invocations, one would need to provide meaningful new `env`, otherwise the
actual blocknumber (exposed to the EVM) would not increase.

### Transactions in RLP form

It is possible to provide already-signed transactions as input to, using an `input.txs` which ends with the `rlp` suffix.
The input format for RLP-form transactions is _identical_ to the _output_ format for block bodies. Therefore, it's fully possible
to use the evm to go from `json` input to `rlp` input.

The following command takes **json** the transactions in `./testdata/13/txs.json` and signs them. After execution, they are output to `signed_txs.rlp`.:
```
./evm t8n --state.fork=London --input.alloc=./testdata/13/alloc.json --input.txs=./testdata/13/txs.json --input.env=./testdata/13/env.json --output.result=alloc_jsontx.json --output.body=signed_txs.rlp

INFO [07-27|11:53:41.124] Trie dumping complete accounts=3 elapsed="94.284µs"

INFO [07-27|11:53:41.125] Wrote file file=signed_txs.rlp

```

The `output.body` is the rlp-list of transactions, encoded in hex and placed in a string a'la `json` encoding rules:
```
cat signed_txs.rlp
"0xf8d2b86702f864010180820fa08284d09411111111111111111111111111111111111111118080c001a0b7dfab36232379bb3d1497a4f91c1966b1f932eae3ade107bf5d723b9cb474e0a06261c359a10f2132f126d250485b90cf20f30340801244a08ef6142ab33d1904b86702f864010280820fa08284d09411111111111111111111111111111111111111118080c080a0d4ec563b6568cd42d998fc4134b36933c6568d01533b5adf08769270243c6c7fa072bf7c21eac6bbeae5143371eef26d5e279637f3bd73482b55979d76d935b1e9"
```

We can use `rlpdump` to check what the contents are:
```
rlpdump -hex $(cat signed_txs.rlp | jq -r )
[
02f864010180820fa08284d09411111111111111111111111111111111111111118080c001a0b7dfab36232379bb3d1497a4f91c1966b1f932eae3ade107bf5d723b9cb474e0a06261c359a10f2132f126d250485b90cf20f30340801244a08ef6142ab33d1904,
02f864010280820fa08284d09411111111111111111111111111111111111111118080c080a0d4ec563b6568cd42d998fc4134b36933c6568d01533b5adf08769270243c6c7fa072bf7c21eac6bbeae5143371eef26d5e279637f3bd73482b55979d76d935b1e9,
]
```
Now, we can now use those (or any other already signed transactions), as input, like so:
```
./evm t8n --state.fork=London --input.alloc=./testdata/13/alloc.json --input.txs=./signed_txs.rlp --input.env=./testdata/13/env.json --output.result=alloc_rlptx.json
INFO [07-27|11:53:41.253] Trie dumping started root=e4b924..6aef61
INFO [07-27|11:53:41.253] Trie dumping complete accounts=3 elapsed="128.445µs"
INFO [07-27|11:53:41.253] Wrote file file=alloc.json
INFO [07-27|11:53:41.255] Wrote file file=alloc_rlptx.json

```

You might have noticed that the results from these two invocations were stored in two separate files.
And we can now finally check that they match.
```
cat alloc_jsontx.json | jq .stateRoot && cat alloc_rlptx.json | jq .stateRoot
"0xe4b924a6adb5959fccf769d5b7bb2f6359e26d1e76a2443c5a91a36d826aef61"

I'm doofus, but the general point still stands. We can't read RLP from stdin, because L147 tries to decode into an input object

Fixed this in my last commit. One can't just take the output and feed to the input, since the input can contain many things. Therefore, you need to envelop the leaf json into an object, and call it txsRlp:
