time: spring cleaning (#3262)
Time in the beacon chain is expressed relative to the genesis time -
this PR creates a `beacon_time` module that collects helpers and
utilities for dealing the time units - the new module does not deal with
actual wall time (that's remains in `beacon_clock`).

Collecting the time related stuff in one place makes it easier to find,
avoids some circular imports and allows more easily identifying the code
actually needs wall time to operate.

* move genesis-time-related functionality into `spec/beacon_time`
* avoid using `chronos.Duration` for time differences - it does not
support negative values (such as when something happens earlier than it
should)
* saturate conversions between `FAR_FUTURE_XXX`, so as to avoid
overflows
* fix delay reporting in validator client so it uses the expected
deadline of the slot, not "closest wall slot"
* simplify looping over the slots of an epoch
* `compute_start_slot_at_epoch` -> `start_slot`
* `compute_epoch_at_slot` -> `epoch`

A follow-up PR will (likely) introduce saturating arithmetic for the
time units - this is merely code moves, renames and fixing of small
bugs.

RPM/DEB for systemd-based systems (#3034)
* RPM/DEB for systemd-based systems

Similar to https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2691, this PR
introduces packaging for nimbus beacon node.

Instead of relying on interactive prompts, a default configuration is
included that connects to mainnet and expects there to be an execution
client running with websockets enabled on the same host, on the standard
websocket port.

Should the user need to configure their nimbus after installation (for
example with a different web3 url), the "standard" way of doing so via
`systemctl` edit is recommended.

ncli_db: add putState, putBlock (#3096)
* ncli_db: add putState, putBlock

These tools allow modifying an existing nimbus database for the purpose
of recovery or reorg, moving the head, tail and genesis to arbitrary
points.

* remove potentially expensive `putState` in `BeaconStateDB`
* introduce `latest_block_root` which computes the root of the latest
applied block from the `latest_block_header` field (instead of passing
it in separately)
* avoid some unnecessary BeaconState copies during init
* discover https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/19094
* prefer `HashedBeaconState` in a few places to avoid recomputing state
root
* fetch latest block root from state when creating blocks
* harden `get_beacon_proposer_index` against invalid slots and document
* move random spec function tests to `test_spec.nim`
* avoid unnecessary state root computation before block proposal

remove "beacon_chain.nimble" (#2316)
Tests have been moved to the Makefile and the test binaries are built in
parallel.

The Nim compilation scheme has been moved to a script and adapted to
work with different binaries being built in parallel from the same main
source file (think minimal/mainnet tests).

Fix the corrupted database state on Pyrmont nodes; Add mainnet genesis (#2056)
* Handle some web3 timeouts better

* Add support for developer .env files

* Eth1 improvements; Mainnet genesis state

Notable changes:

* The deposits table have been removed from the database. The client
  will no longer process all deposits on start-up.

* The network metadata now includes a "state snapshot" of the deposit
  contract. This allows the client to skip syncing deposits made prior
  to the snapshot (i.e. genesis). Suitable metadata added for Pyrmont
  and Mainnet.

* The Eth1 monitor won't be started unless there are validators attached
  to the node.

* The genesis detection code is now optional and disabled by default

* Bugfix: The client should not produce blocks that will fail validation
  when it hasn't downloaded the latest deposits yet

* Bugfix: Work around the database corruption affecting Pyrmont nodes

* Remove metadata for Toledo and Medalla

Prometheus & Grafana refactoring
- moved "process_dashboard.nim" in "tools/"
- README: made Witti the documented testnet and added instructions for
  getting metrics out of the local node
- moved Prometheus config file generation in its own script
- the static Grafana dashboard definition now covers all nodes, using
  a variable; only the remote testnet dashboards need to be dynamically
  generated
- "launch_local_testnet.sh" no longer needs a "--grafana" option

Viktor Kirilov 8760494c72 first batch of work towards the VC/BN split:
- we have a new binary which connects via RPC to the respective BN and has an internal clock - waking it up on every slot
- the BN has a new option called --external-validators and currently in order to have the VC binaries to run we need to pass EXTERNAL_VALIDATORS=yes to make
- factored some code out of beacon_node.nim for easier reuse in validator_api.nim and validator_client.nim
- the VC loads its associated private keys from the datadir for its BN
- most of the validator API calls have been implemented as a stub.
- the VC polls its BN at the start of each epoch - getting a list of all active validators for the current epoch - and then continues to request blocks and sign them with its appropriate validators when necessary

cache empty slot state root (#961)
When replaying state transitions, for the slots that have a block, the
state root is taken from the block. For slots that lack a block, it's
currently calculated using hash_tree_root which is expensive.

Caching the empty slot state roots helps us avoid recalculating this
hash, meaning that for replay, hashes are never calculated. This turns
blocks into fairly lightweight "state-diffs"!

* avoid re-saving state when replaying blocks
* advance empty slots slot-by-slot and save root
* fix sim randomness
* fix sim genesis filename
* introduce `isEpoch` to check if a slot is an epoch slot
