eth_getStorageAt with block number parameter doesn't return correct result when using fork feature

See original GitHub issue

JSON RPC method eth_getStorageAt always returns the latest state when using fork feature regardless of the third parameter

Expected Behavior

When changing the storage value in contract c at key k from v1 to v2 in block b, eth_getStorageAt(c, k, b-1) should return v1.

Current Behavior

eth_getStorageAt(c, k, b-1) returns v2 for any b. For storage values that didn’t change after fork, eth_getStorageAt works as expected

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

ganache-cli -f mainnet_node --networkId 1
truffle migrate
eth_getStorageAt("[migration_contract]", "0x1", "0x0")

Hey @nebojsa94, while I was assessing the validity of your solution, I was trying to find a more elegant solution by hacking away. However, I ended up on your proposed solution anyway and opened a PR since it was done. I didn’t intend to steal your thunder and hope you didn’t spend any time with implementation! Nevertheless, I really appreciate the proposal you made as it saved me discovery time!
