Use sparse ledger for staged ledger diff application

[mrmr1993]

This PR modifies the staged ledger diff application to use a sparse ledger for the transaction logic. This should significantly speed up catchup, where we have to apply a large number of blocks.

This PR builds upon #14528, but also includes the sparse ledger fixes from #14521 and #14520.
