periodically log LC sync progress (#4339)
Adds a "Slot start" log to the LC that behaves similar to BN to inform
the user that the light client is doing something, and to indicate the
latest view of the network (finalized / optimistic).

State-only checkpoint state startup (#4251)
Currently, we require genesis and a checkpoint block and state to start
from an arbitrary slot - this PR relaxes this requirement so that we can
start with a state alone.

The current trusted-node-sync algorithm works by first downloading
blocks until we find an epoch aligned non-empty slot, then downloads the
state via slot.

However, current
[proposals](https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/226) for
checkpointing prefer finalized state as
the main reference - this allows more simple access control and caching
on the server side - in particular, this should help checkpoint-syncing
from sources that have a fast `finalized` state download (like infura
and teku) but are slow when accessing state via slot.

Earlier versions of Nimbus will not be able to read databases created
without a checkpoint block and genesis. In most cases, backfilling makes
the database compatible except where genesis is also missing (custom
networks).

* backfill checkpoint block from libp2p instead of checkpoint source,
when doing trusted node sync
* allow starting the client without genesis / checkpoint block
* perform epoch start slot lookahead when loading tail state, so as to
deal with the case where the epoch start slot does not have a block
* replace `--blockId` with `--state-id` in TNS command line
* when replaying, also look at the parent of the last-known-block (even
if we don't have the parent block data, we can still replay from a
"parent" state) - in particular, this clears the way for implementing
state pruning
* deprecate `--finalized-checkpoint-block` option (no longer needed)

Optimistic mode (#4262)
In optimistic mode, Nimbus will sync optimistically even when the
execution client is offline / not available.

An optimistic node is less secure because it has not validated block
transactions via the execution client and can thus not be used for
validation duties.

rm require engine API check (#4144)
The `eth1_monitor` check to require engine API from bellatrix onward
has issues in setups where the EL and CL are started simultaneously
because the EL may not be ready to answer requests by the time that the
check is performed. This can be observed, e.g., on Raspberry Pi 4 when
using Besu as the EL client. Now that the merge transition happened, the
check is also not that useful anymore, as users have other ways to know
that their setup is not working correctly (e.g., repeated exchange logs)

accelerate EL sync with LC with `--sync-light-client` (#4041)
When the BN-embedded LC makes sync progress, pass the corresponding
execution block hash to the EL via `engine_forkchoiceUpdatedV1`.
This allows the EL to sync to wall slot while the chain DAG is behind.
Renamed `--light-client` to `--sync-light-client` for clarity, and
`--light-client-trusted-block-root` to `--trusted-block-root` for
consistency with `nimbus_light_client`.

Note that this does not work well in practice at this time:
- Geth sticks to the optimistic sync:
  "Ignoring payload while snap syncing" (when passing the LC head)
  "Forkchoice requested unknown head" (when updating to LC head)
- Nethermind syncs to LC head but does not report ancestors as VALID,
  so the main forward sync is still stuck in optimistic mode:
  "Pre-pivot block, ignored and returned Syncing"

To aid EL client teams in fixing those issues, having this available
as a hidden option is still useful.

reduce LC optsync latency (#4002)
The optimistic sync spec was updated since the LC based optsync module
was introduced. It is no longer necessary to wait for the justified
checkpoint to have execution enabled; instead, any block is okay to be
optimistically imported to the EL client, as long as its parent block
has execution enabled. Complex syncing logic has been removed, and the
LC optsync module will now follow gossip directly, reducing the latency
when using this module. Note that because this is now based on gossip
instead of using sync manager / request manager, that individual blocks
may be missed. However, EL clients should recover from this by fetching
missing blocks themselves.

`mkdocs` works with markdown similar to `mdbook` but is generally more

This PR does the bulk of the transition - likely, a followup would be
needed to fully make use of the extra features and navigation.

Book pages have been kept url-compatible, meaning that for the most
part, old links should continue to work!

Validator monitoring improves logging by giving more specific monitoring

the norm).

era: load blocks and states (#3394)
* era: load blocks and states

Era files contain finalized history and can be thought of as an
alternative source for block and state data that allows clients to avoid
syncing this information from the P2P network - the P2P network is then
used to "top up" the client with the most recent data. They can be
freely shared in the community via whatever means (http, torrent, etc)
and serve as a permanent cold store of consensus data (and, after the
merge, execution data) for history buffs and bean counters alike.

This PR gently introduces support for loading blocks and states in two
cases: block requests from rest/p2p and frontfilling when doing
checkpoint sync.

The era files are used as a secondary source if the information is not
found in the database - compared to the database, there are a few key
differences:

* the database stores the block indexed by block root while the era file
indexes by slot - the former is used only in rest, while the latter is
used both by p2p and rest.
* when loading blocks from era files, the root is no longer trivially
available - if it is needed, it must either be computed (slow) or cached
(messy) - the good news is that for p2p requests, it is not needed
* in era files, "framed" snappy encoding is used while in the database
we store unframed snappy - for p2p2 requests, the latter requires
recompression while the former could avoid it
* front-filling is the process of using era files to replace backfilling
- in theory this front-filling could happen from any block and
front-fills with gaps could also be entertained, but our backfilling
algorithm cannot take advantage of this because there's no (simple) way
to tell it to "skip" a range.
* front-filling, as implemented, is a bit slow (10s to load mainnet): we
load the full BeaconState for every era to grab the roots of the blocks
- it would be better to partially load the state - as such, it would
also be good to be able to partially decompress snappy blobs
* lookups from REST via root are served by first looking up a block
summary in the database, then using the slot to load the block data from
the era file - however, there needs to be an option to create the
summary table from era files to fully support historical queries

To test this, `ncli_db` has an era file exporter: the files it creates
should be placed in an `era` folder next to `db` in the data directory.
What's interesting in particular about this setup is that `db` remains
as the source of truth for security purposes - it stores the latest
synced head root which in turn determines where a node "starts" its
consensus participation - the era directory however can be freely shared
between nodes / people without any (significant) security implications,
assuming the era files are consistent / not broken.

There's lots of future improvements to be had:

* we can drop the in-memory `BlockRef` index almost entirely - at this
point, resident memory usage of Nimbus should drop to a cool 500-600 mb
* we could serve era files via REST trivially: this would drop backfill
times to whatever time it takes to download the files - unlike the
current implementation that downloads block by block, downloading an era
at a time almost entirely cuts out request overhead
* we can "reasonably" recreate detailed state history from almost any
point in time, turning an O(slot) process into O(1) effectively - we'll
still need caches and indices to do this with sufficient efficiency for
the rest api, but at least it cuts the whole process down to minutes
instead of hours, for arbitrary points in time

* CI: ignore failures with Nim-1.6 (temporary)

* test fixes

Historical state reindex for trusted node sync (#3452)
When performing trusted node sync, historical access is limited to
states after the checkpoint.

Reindexing restores full historical access by replaying historical
blocks against the state and storing snapshots in the database.

The process can be initiated or resumed at any point in time.

Update start-syncing.md (#3300)
I found this documentation a little confusing because it says "you must" leading me to think there may be some kind of dire consequences for NOT having it synced before starting the validator (in the context of importing existing keys from another setup, not starting a new validator with a new deposit).  Modifying the language to make the consequences of not having the syncing done clear.

Trusted node sync (#3209)
* Trusted node sync

Trusted node sync, aka checkpoint sync, allows syncing tyhe chain from a
trusted node instead of relying on a full sync from genesis.

Features include:

* sync from any slot, including the latest finalized slot
* backfill blocks either from the REST api (default) or p2p (#3263)

Future improvements:

* top up blocks between head in database and some other node - this
makes for an efficient backup tool
* recreate historical state to enable historical queries

* fixes

* load genesis from network metadata
* check checkpoint block root against state
* fix invalid block root in rest json decoding
* odds and ends

* retry looking for epoch-boundary checkpoint blocks

Validator monitoring (#2925)
Validator monitoring based on and mostly compatible with the
implementation in Lighthouse - tracks additional logs and metrics for
specified validators so as to stay on top on performance.

The implementation works more or less the following way:
* Validator pubkeys are singled out for monitoring - these can be
running on the node or not
* For every action that the validator takes, we record steps in the
process such as messages being seen on the network or published in the
API
* When the dust settles at the end of an epoch, we report the
information from one epoch before that, which coincides with the
balances being updated - this is a tradeoff between being correct
(waiting for finalization) and providing relevant information in a
timely manner)

Backfill support for ChainDAG (#3171)
In the ChainDAG, 3 block pointers are kept: genesis, tail and head. This
PR adds one more block pointer: the backfill block which represents the
block that has been backfilled so far.

When doing a checkpoint sync, a random block is given as starting point
- this is the tail block, and we require that the tail block has a
corresponding state.

When backfilling, we end up with blocks without corresponding states,
hence we cannot use `tail` as a backfill pointer - there is no state.

Nonetheless, we need to keep track of where we are in the backfill
process between restarts, such that we can answer GetBeaconBlocksByRange
requests.

This PR adds the basic support for backfill handling - it needs to be
integrated with backfill sync, and the REST API needs to be adjusted to
take advantage of the new backfilled blocks when responding to certain
requests.

Future work will also enable moving the tail in either direction:
* pruning means moving the tail forward in time and removing states
* backwards means recreating past states from genesis, such that
intermediate states are recreated step by step all the way to the tail -
at that point, tail, genesis and backfill will match up.
* backfilling is done when backfill != genesis - later, this will be the
WSS checkpoint instead

move quarantine outside of chaindag (#3124)
* move quarantine outside of chaindag

The quarantine has been part of the ChainDAG for the longest time, but
this design has a few issues:

* the function in which blocks are verified and added to the dag becomes
reentrant and therefore difficult to reason about - we're currently
using a stateful flag to work around it
* quarantined blocks bypass the processing queue leading to a processing
stampede
* the quarantine flow is unsuitable for orphaned attestations - these
should also should be quarantined eventually

Instead of processing the quarantine inside ChainDAG, this PR moves
re-queueing to `block_processor` which already is responsible for
dealing with follow-up work when a block is added to the dag

This sets the stage for keeping attestations in the quarantine as well.

Also:

* make `BlockError` `{.pure.}`
* avoid use of `ValidationResult` in block clearance (that's for gossip)

update gossip_processing and attestation docs (#2860)
The README file explaining gossip_processing, and the attestation_flow
docs were no longer accurate, as attestations and aggregates no longer
go through a queue (pending batching). This patch updates the docs
accordingly. It also improves some grammar and fixes some typos.

REST API client, JSON-RPC cleanups (#2756)
This refactoring puts the JSON-RPC and REST APIs on more equal footing
by renaming and moving things around, creating a separation between
client and server, and documenting what they are - the aim is to have a
simple-to-use base to start from when developing API clients, as well as
make it easier to navigate the code when looking for the legacy JSON-RPC
interface vs the new REST API.

* move REST client, serialization and supporting types to spec/eth2_apis
* REST stuff now starts with `rest_`, JSON-RPC stuff starts with `rpc_`,
more or less
* simplify imports such that there's a simple module to import for both
server and client
* map REST type and proc names to yaml spec more closely - in
particular, reuse operation and type names in `rest_types` to make
comparisons against spec more easy
* cleaner separation between client and server modules - modules common
between server and client such as `rest_types` and serialization move to
the spec folder - this allows the client to be built with less knowledge
about server internals
