perf: exclude pruning from tendermint update client in ante handler e…

…xecution (#6278)

* performance: exit early on recvpacket to exclude app callbacks

* perf: skip pruning on check tx and recheck tx

* change fmt.Errorf to errors.New

* fix: check execMode simulate in conditional

* revert: recv packet changes

* fix: account for simulation in pruning check

* fix: reuse checkTx ctx

* chore: add changelog
