Migrate docs to mkdocs (#3900)
`mkdocs` works with markdown similar to `mdbook` but is generally more
pleasing to the eye and has several nice UX features.

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!

remove web3 url prompt in launcher script (#3810)
* remove web3 url prompt in launcher script

The interactive prompt for web3 has outlived its utility as we now load
url:s from command line params and config files, preventing the prompt
from correctly detecting when it's needed.

Also, after the merge, a JWT secret will (likely) be needed.

* log notice when web3 url is missing
* fix docs to not mention default that doesn't exist
* fix scripts to properly quote arguments

Polish, remove beta warning for validator monitor (#3531)
Validator monitoring improves logging by giving more specific monitoring
information, and can now be seen as complete.

Previously, logging has focused on "Attestation sent" messages which
carry little informational value when things go wrong, and are overly
aggressive when everything works as expected (sending attestations is
the norm).

* lower "Attestation sent" log to `INFO`
* mark 1.7.0 as the start of the validator monitor feature - previous
versions had significant bugs in totals mode

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
