[Feature] Make `ethereum.getBalance` ENS aware

[alex-pakalniskis]

Description

Developers using ethereum.getBalance() might want to reference ENS (or other) in addition to addresses

let balance = ethereum.getBalance(
    Address.fromString("0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045")
);

or

let balance = ethereum.getBalance(
    Address.fromString("vitalik.eth")
);

I would like to work on this change. Just for clarity, should this change the Address.fromString() method, or only in the ethereum.getBalance() function? In my opinion, I think we should go with the Address.fromString() method. Other functions like ethereum.call() or ethereum.hasCode() might also want to use ens resolvers. Also, a direct type conversion from string to H160 of "vitalik.eth" will lead to problems.
