Add toBlock(or limitBlock) parameter to limit block range in useScaffoldEventHistory() ?

[yoyoj1023]

I hope the parameter object of useScaffoldEventHistory() can include a new variable called toBlock(or limitBlock), which is used to limit the number of logs fetched per request to eth_getLogs.

For example, on the Alchemy dashboard, the eth_getLogs method used to read blockchain events is often limited to a maximum of 500 blocks per request. If the request exceeds 500 blocks, an error will be returned:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 48,
  "error": {
    "code": -32600,
    "message": "You can make eth_getLogs requests with up to a 500 block range. Based on your parameters, this block range should work: [0x0, 0x1f3]"
  }
}

Would it be a good idea to add a block range limitation (e.g., 500 blocks max) within the useScaffoldEventHistory() hook to avoid such errors when querying logs?

Hey @yoyoj1023! Thanks for a good question! As I remember, there were no limits previously, hooks just worked from any fromBlock including 0. But since alchemy added that limits, it makes sense to get events in separate requests of 500 blocks each or something like that when working with alchemy. And the block range limitation parameter could also be very useful.

Created an issue #1110 so we can discuss details and start working on it

Thanks!
