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.

* 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
When the BN exits after writing new `head` to database, but before
completing the `updateFinalizedBlocks` call, the database is slightly
inconsistent due to the partial write. We currently fail to start up
after that. Fix that by catching up on partial `updateFinalizedBlocks`
tasks on start up, and add a test for this edge case.
Simplify best `LightClientUpdate` collection by tracking only canonical
data instead of tracking the best update across all branches within the
sync committee period.

* reorder gossip validation checks
Doing the coverage check only after the corresponding committee index is
known allows optimization by early rejecting invalid data.
* use same helper for individual attestations as well
When creating new LC updates, information about the parent block's post
state must be available (cached), but information about current block's
post state is not yet required. Caching information about the current
block's post state can be delayed, simplifying the LC data collection
logic a bit and allowing more future flexibility with the cache design.
When new finality is reached without supermajority sync committee
support, trigger another event push on beacon-API and libp2p once
the finality gains supermajority support.
- https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3549
Replace sections that need to be maintained with every `ConsensusFork`
related to LC data collection with a generic logic that keeps working
when unrelated parts of Ethereum change.
`v1.4.0-beta.4` made the Gossip rules more strict and now requires to
ignore blobs from other branches if there are equivocating blocks.
Those blobs are only requestable via Req/Resp.
* ShufflingRef approach to next-epoch validator duty calculation/prediction
* refactor action_tracker.updateActions to take ShufflingRef + beacon_proposers; refactor maybeUpdateActionTrackerNextEpoch to be separate and reused function; add actual fallback logic
* document one possible set of conditions
* check epoch participation flags and inactivity scores to ensure no penalties and MAX_EFFECTIVE_BALANCE to ensure rewards don't matter
* correctly (un)shuffle each proposer index
* remove debugging assertion
Directly initialize `ForkedLightClientObj` instead of separately first
setting the `kind` (initializing everything to zero) and then assigning
the forky data after that.
For symmetry with `forkyState` when using `withState`, and to avoid
problems with shadowing of `blck` when using `withBlck` in `template`,
also rename the injected `blck` to `forkyBlck`.

To allow testing https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/issues/3466
add support for selecting fork choice version at launch. This means we
can deploy a different logic when `DENEB_FORK_EPOCH != FAR_FUTURE_EPOCH`
that won't be used on Mainnet.
