* Allow chain dag without genesis / block
This PR enables the initialization of the dag without access to blocks
or genesis state - it is a prerequisite for implementing a number of
interesting features:
* checkpoint sync without any block download
* pruning of blocks and states
* backfill checkpoint block
* `.era` store docs
Initial documentation for era file generation and usage
* Update docs/the_nimbus_book/src/era-store.md

* Fix doppelganger protection reorders validator indices in response issue.
* Add chronos metrics endpoint to nimbus REST API.
* Doppelganger protection now works on duties not on attestations.
Improve logging for doppelganger and indices.
* Improve doppelganger and indices logging.
* Add number of validators to logs.
* Move logging dumps from `debug` to `trace` level.
The LC REST API has been merged into the ethereum/beacon-APIs specs:
- https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/247
Update URLs to v1 and update REST tests. Note that REST tests do not
start with Altair, so the tested BN will return empty / error responses.
Implements the latest proposal for providing LC data via REST, as of
https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/247 with a v0 suffix.
Requests:
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/bootstrap/{block_root}`
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/updates?start_period={start_period}&count={count}`
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/finality_update`
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/optimistic_update`
HTTP Server-Sent Events (SSE):
- `light_client_finality_update_v0`
- `light_client_optimistic_update_v0`
Allow config of deployment phase via config instead of attempting to
derive from genesis content (when running relevant testnets), so that
we don't have to keep maintaining the list inside the binary.

For JSON responses, "eth-consensus-version" header is handled in
`eth2_rest_serialization` for states and `rest_beacon_api` for blocks.
Align them to also be handled in `eth2_rest_serialization` for blocks.
The `ContentNotAcceptableError` is triggered when client either requests
an unsupported media type, or has form errors such as sending multiples.
Updating the description to also indicate non-supported Accept headers.
When EL `newPayload` is slow (e.g., Raspberry Pi with Besu), the epoch
and shuffling caches tend to fill up with multiple copies per epoch when
processing gossip and performing validator duties close to wall slot.
The old strategy of evicting oldest epoch led to the same item being
evicted over and over, leading to blocking of over 5 minutes in extreme
cases where alternate epochs/shuffling got loaded repeatedly.
Changing the cache eviction strategy to least-recently-used seems to
improve the situation drastically. A simple implementation was selected
based on single linked-list without a hashtable.
When backfilling LC updates (`--light-client-data-import-mode=full`),
the highest participation update is computed without ensuring that the
finalized header is in the same period. Updates sharing same period for
both finalized and attested headers should be preferred.
Fixes a bug leading to suboptimal update selection.
