#6087 introduced a subtle change to `nim-web3` resulting in `Gwei` to be
serialized differently than before. Using a `distinct` type for `Gwei`
improves type safety and avoids such problems in the future.
Avoid marking blocks invalid when corresponding `blobSidecarsByRange`
returns an incomplete / incorrect response while syncing. The block
itself may still be valid in that scenario.
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.

* Bump nim-eth: Change block timestamp from std.Time to distinct uint64
Also change tx.maxFeePerBlobGas from GasInt to UInt256
following Cancun latest spec
* Fix EthTime.now from func to proc due to sideeffects
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.
To obtain the correct `transactions_root` and `withdrawals_root`,
it is necessary to process execution block header. Light client updates
don't contain the correct MPT roots.
This PR removes a few hundred thousand temporary seq allocations during
state transition - in particular, the flag seq was allocated per
validator while committees are computed per attestation.
When an uncached `ShufflingRef` is requested, we currently replay state
which can take several seconds. Acceleration is possible by:
1. Start from any state with locked-in `get_active_validator_indices`.
Any blocks / slots applied to such a state can only affect that
result for future epochs, so are viable for querying target epoch.
`compute_activation_exit_epoch(state.slot.epoch) > target.epoch`
2. Determine highest common ancestor among `state` and `target.blck`.
At the ancestor slot, same rules re `get_active_validator_indices`.
`compute_activation_exit_epoch(ancestorSlot.epoch) > target.epoch`
3. We now have a `state` that shares history with `target.blck` up
through a common ancestor slot. Any blocks / slots that the `state`
contains, which are not part of the `target.blck` history, affect
`get_active_validator_indices` at epochs _after_ `target.epoch`.
4. Select `state.randao_mixes[N]` that is closest to common ancestor.
Either direction is fine (above / below ancestor).
5. From that RANDAO mix, mix in / out all RANDAO reveals from blocks
in-between. This is just an XOR operation, so fully reversible.
`mix = mix xor SHA256(blck.message.body.randao_reveal)`
6. Compute the attester dependent slot from `target.epoch`.
`if epoch >= 2: (target.epoch - 1).start_slot - 1 else: GENESIS_SLOT`
7. Trace back from `target.blck` to the attester dependent slot.
We now have the destination for which we want to obtain RANDAO.
8. Mix in all RANDAO reveals from blocks up through the `dependentBlck`.
Same method, no special handling necessary for epoch transitions.
9. Combine `get_active_validator_indices` from `state` at `target.epoch`
with the recovered RANDAO value at `dependentBlck` to obtain the
requested shuffling, and construct the `ShufflingRef` without replay.
