[Transaction] kaia_estimateComputationCost

Generates and returns an estimate of how much computation cost will be spent to execute the transaction. Kaia limits the computation cost of a transaction to 100000000 currently not to take too much time by a single transaction. The transaction will not be added to the blockchain like kaia_estimateGas
