fix: fix installation issues by bumping @trufflesuite/bigint-buffer to v1.1.10 (#3208)

This change updates @trufflesuite/bigint-buffer to 1.1.10. This patched version is built in v18 of NodeJS and resolves build issues for Windows and Mac users installing Ganache (1, 2, possibly 3, 4) on Node v14, v16, and v18.

fix: reduce bundle size and check size in CI (#3275)

jsDelivr has an unpacked bundle size limit of 100MB, which we recently exceeded, breaking our CDN recommendation in our README.md.

This change reduces the bundle size to under 100MB and also adds a check to our pr.yml CI Action that will fail if the new bundle size is greater than 100 MB.

fix: make forking work in the browser (#3130)

fix: Properly handle 'estimate' for defaultTransactionGasLimit option on the CLI (#3233)

Previously, estimate was causing an error when the miner options would attempt to cast the string to BigInt.

This change adds the estimateOrToBigIntOrString function to Ethereum's miner options to intercept and handle the estimate option on the cli.
