Make it possible to calculate the storage as often as you want
So, until now each Substrate based blockchain has calculated the storage root once, at the end of the block. Now there is Frontier that wants to calculate some intermediate storage root. However this failed on block import. The problem with that was the extrinsics root. When building the block we stored `Default::default()` as extrinsics root, because yeah, we don't know the extrinsics root before finishing the block. At the end this extrinsics root was then calculated. But on block import we passed the already known extrinsics root. This was no problem, as we removed this value at the end of the block. However when you all the storage root in between, that changes the storage root between block building and block import. This pr changes this behavior. It removes the `ExtrinsicsRoot` storage entry and also doesn't pass it anymore to `System::initialize`. By doing it, we remove the difference in the storage and fix the storage root mismatch.
