This fix raises the default gas limit for eth_call and eth_estimateGas to be much much higher.

It also adds an a new option callGasLimit which will be the default value for tx and block gas limits for calls and estimates.

Ideally we'd allow for Infinity. But the VM doesn't allow for that.

We could go higher with this limit if we change the gas est algo to handle BigInt-sized numbers, but currently it doesn't so Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER it is!

LGTM! It should be really easy to update the gas algo for big ints too! I'll open an issue for that if there isn't one already!
