We currently compute `justified_total_active_balance` inside
`calculateProposerBoost`, despite that sum already being known
in the `EpochRef` cache. Tracking `justified_total_active_balance`
whenever the justified checkpoint updates allows replacing the
repeated computation with a lookup, at minimal memory cost.
The 'vendor/holesky/public-keys/all.txt' file is not used by Nimbus,
but sometimes fails to download due to payment issues in `@eth-clients`.
Skipping the download of that file should reduce that risk.

Currently we always request duties for current and next sync period.
As sync periods are quite long (~27 hrs on Mainnet), having access to
the duties so early doesn't help too much. To avoid running into errors
when the BN does not have the duties available around period boundary,
delay requesting them until the current period is close to finish.
`SYNC_COMMITTEE_SUBNET_COUNT` epochs are what the spec says should be
the lookahead timing of starting to subscribe to sync committee gossip.
Reusing the constant here for consistency.
This fixes these warning messages in the first slot of a new period.

Sync committee duties are performed by the sync committee as determined
by slot + 1. We did it correctly for individual messages, but selected
the incorrect participants for aggregate contributions for the very
first slot per period (roughly 1 per ~27 hrs on Mainnet). The faulty
participants selection code was originally introduced in #2925.
- compact syntax for different options (as in the rest of the guide)
- correct numeration of the list (continuation vs starting from 1)
- add links to useful resources
- a note stating that Prater is deprecated
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.
In `Slot end`, sync duties are reported one slot too late,
because sync committee duties are determined by the next slot
instead of the current one. Address that by taking account of this.
* Add metadata for the Holesky network
* Add copyright banner to the new Nim module
* Working version
* Bump Chronos to fix downloading from Github
* Add checksum check of the downloaded file
* Clean up debugging code and obsolete imports
* optimize epoch transition via get_flag_index_deltas() and get_inactivity_penalty_deltas()
* directly mutate Altair info in {get,update}_flag_and_inactivity_deltas
When bumping to a more recent commit than the configured `branch`,
currently the lint error message is confusing:
```
fatal: error processing shallow info: 4
Submodule 'vendor/nim-chronos': Failed to fetch 'master':
```
This happens when the selected commit is more recent than the latest
one on the `branch`. Comparing the commit dates allows a better message.
The `is_next_sync_committee_known` helper allocates a fresh
`SyncCommittee` in the caller and `nimZeroMem`s it on each use.
Use `static` to compare against a compile-time zeroed copy instead.
This also should help reduce stack size far enough to link with Nim 2.0.
