This PR allows sharing the pubkey data between validators by using a
thread-local cache for pubkey data, netting about a 400mb mem usage
reduction on holesky due to us keeping 3 permanent + several ephemeral
state copies in memory at all times and each state copy holding a full
validator.
The PR also introduces a hash cache for the key which gives ~14% speedup
for a full state `hash_tree_root` - the key makes up for a large part of
the `Validator` htr time.
Finally, the time it takes to copy a state goes down as well from ~80m
ms to ~60, for reasons similar to htr.
We use a `ptr` even if a `ref` could in theory have been used - there is
not much practical benefit to a `ref` (given it's mutable) while a `ptr`
is cheaper and easier to copy (when copying temporary states).
We could go further and cache a cooked pubkey but it turns out this is
quite intrusive - in all the relevant places, we're already using a
cooked key from the immutable validator data so there are no immediate
performance gains of doing so while managing the compressed -> cooked
key mapping would become more difficult - something for a future PR
perhaps.

Changes here are more significant because of some good old tech debt in
block production which has grown quite hairy - the reduction in
exception handling at least provides some steps in the right direction.
* Revert "use `RestPlainResponse` to improve builder API rerror reporting"
* Update rest_deneb_mev_calls.nim
copyright year linting
* Update rest_capella_mev_calls.nim
more copyright year linting
Avoid marking blocks invalid when corresponding `blobSidecarsByRange`
returns an incomplete / incorrect response while syncing. The block
itself may still be valid in that scenario.
The `blob_gas_used` field was not properly populated when constructing
Deneb light client data. This is due to #5026 not applying the change to
the entire codebase when the new field got introduced, and due to #5350
not catching that oversight in other modules. Also reviewed codebase and
discovered that `shortLog` for Deneb execution payloads has same bug.
* remove extraneous length checks in KZG batch proofs
* re-add winservice import but only for Windows, to avoid UnusedImport warning
* also uses establishWindowsService
* Avoid global in p2p macro (fixes#4578)
* copy p2p macro to this repo and start de-crufting it
* make protocol registration dynamic, removing light client hacks et al
* split out light client protocol into its own file
* cleanups
* Option -> Opt
* remove more cruft
* further split beacon_sync
this allows the light client to respond to peer metadata messages
without exposing the block sync protocol
* better protocol init
* "constant" protocol index
* avoid casts
* copyright
* move some discovery code to discovery
* avoid extraneous data copy when sending chunks
* remove redundant forkdigest field
* document how to connect to a specific peer
Extend slot start message and default status bar with information about
current head fork and the next fork transition (corresponding to head).
This is useful to know whether a synced client is aware of a future fork
and can also be useful when syncing from old forks to follow progress
across the various forks.

With Capella, `bls_to_execution_change` SSE should be emitted on the
event stream whenever a new `SignedBLSToExecutionChange` is received.
Add this missing functionality for compatibility with beacon-API specs.

This requires all object types to be explicitly white-listed for
default serialization. The PR makes the minimal changes, although
a number of similar mechanisms in eth2_rest_serialization can now
be removed.
As followup from #5654, ensure that we still keep the comment around
referring to the correct `forkchoiceUpdated` to use being driven by
the fork schedule.
* use `PayloadAttributesV3` in `nimbus_light_client` for Deneb
From Deneb onward, `forkchoiceUpdated` requires `PayloadAttributesV3`.
In `nimbus_light_client` we still used `PayloadAttributesV2`.
Also clean up two other locations that were already correctly using
`PayloadAttributesV3`, to reduce code duplication.
* fix letter case
