Local sim impovements (#4551)
* Local sim impovements

* Added support for running Capella and EIP-4844 simulations
  by downloading the correct version of Geth.

* Added support for using Nimbus remote signer and Web3Signer.
  Use 2 out of 3 threshold signing configuration in the mainnet
  configuration and regular remote signing in the minimal one.

* The local testnet simulation can now use a payload builder.
  This is currently not activated in CI due to lack of automated
  procedures for installing third-party relays or builders.

  You are adviced to use mergemock for now, but for most realistic
  results, we can create a simple builder based on the nimbus-eth1
  codebase that will be able to propose transactions from the regular
  network mempool.

* Start the simulation from a merged state. This would allow us
  to start removing pre-merge functionality such as the gossip
  subsciption logic. The commit also removes the merge-forcing
  hack installed after the TTD removal.

* Consolidate all the tools used in the local simulation into a
  single `ncli_testnet` binary.

fix concurrent Jenkins stages (#3904)
The ports for the concurrently executing REST and Minimal testnet clash,
leading to some CI failures since #3827 introduced further concurrency.
Adjusting the ports to be distinct across various tests should fix this.

allow driving EL with LC (#3865)
Adds the `--web3-url` launch argument to `nimbus_light_client` to enable
driving the EL with the optimistic head obtained from LC sync protocol.
This will keep issuing `newPayload` / `forkChoiceUpdated` requests for
new blocks, marking them as optimistic. `ZERO_HASH` is reported as the
finalized block for now.
