fe75a0a9a1 Add background file logging (#2762)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1996 

## Proposed Changes

Run a second `Logger` via `sloggers` which logs to a file in the background with:
- separate `debug-level` for background and terminal logging
- the ability to limit log size
- rotation through a customizable number of log files
- an option to compress old log files (`.gz` format)

Add the following new CLI flags:
- `--logfile-debug-level`: The debug level of the log files
- `--logfile-max-size`: The maximum size of each log file
- `--logfile-max-number`: The number of old log files to store
- `--logfile-compress`: Whether to compress old log files

By default background logging uses the `debug` log level and saves logfiles to:
- Beacon Node:  `$HOME/.lighthouse/$network/beacon/logs/beacon.log`
- Validator Client:  `$HOME/.lighthouse/$network/validators/logs/validator.log`

Or, when using the `--datadir` flag:
`$datadir/beacon/logs/beacon.log` and `$datadir/validators/logs/validator.log`

Once rotated, old logs are stored like so: `beacon.log.1`, `beacon.log.2` etc. 
> Note: `beacon.log.1` is always newer than `beacon.log.2`.

## Additional Info

Currently the default value of `--logfile-max-size` is 200 (MB) and `--logfile-max-number` is 5.
This means that the maximum storage space that the logs will take up by default is 1.2GB. 
(200MB x 5 from old log files + <200MB the current logfile being written to)
Happy to adjust these default values to whatever people think is appropriate. 

It's also worth noting that when logging to a file, we lose our custom `slog` formatting. This means the logfile logs look like this:
```
Oct 27 16:02:50.305 INFO Lighthouse started, version: Lighthouse/v2.0.1-8edd9d4+, module: lighthouse:413
Oct 27 16:02:50.305 INFO Configured for network, name: prater, module: lighthouse:414

6625aa4afe Status'd Peer Not Found (#2761)
## Issue Addressed

Users are experiencing `Status'd peer not found` errors

## Proposed Changes

Although I cannot reproduce this error, this is only one connection state change that is not addressed in the peer manager (that I could see). The error occurs because the number of disconnected peers in the peerdb becomes out of sync with the actual number of disconnected peers. From what I can tell almost all possible connection state changes are handled, except for the case when a disconnected peer changes to be disconnecting. This can potentially happen at the peer connection limit, where a previously connected peer switches to disconnecting. 

This PR decrements the disconnected counter when this event occurs and from what I can tell, covers all possible disconnection state changes in the peer manager.

413b0b5b2b Correctly update range status when outdated chains are removed (#2827)
We were batch removing chains when purging, and then updating the status of the collection for each of those. This makes the range status be out of sync with the real status. This represented no harm to the global sync status, but I've changed it to comply with a correct debug assertion that I got triggered while doing some testing.
Also added tests and improved code quality as per @paulhauner 's suggestions.

0b319d4926 Inform dialing via the behaviour (#2814)
I had this change but it seems to have been lost in chaos of network upgrades.

The swarm dialing event seems to miss some cases where we dial via the behaviour. This causes an error to be logged as the peer manager doesn't know about some dialing events. 

This shifts the logic to the behaviour to inform the peer manager.

53562010ec Move peer db writes to eth2 libp2p (#2724)
## Issue Addressed
Part of a bigger effort to make the network globals read only. This moves all writes to the `PeerDB` to the `eth2_libp2p` crate. Limiting writes to the peer manager is a slightly more complicated issue for a next PR, to keep things reviewable.

## Proposed Changes
- Make the peers field in the globals a private field.
- Allow mutable access to the peers field to `eth2_libp2p` for now.
- Add a new network message to update the sync state.

31386277c3 Sync wrong dbg assertion (#2821)
## Issue Addressed

Running a beacon node I triggered a sync debug panic. And so finally the time to create tests for sync arrived. Fortunately, te bug was not in the sync algorithm itself but a wrong assertion

## Proposed Changes

- Split Range's impl from the BeaconChain via a trait. This is needed for testing. The TestingRig/Harness is way bigger than needed and does not provide the modification functionalities that are needed to test sync. I find this simpler, tho some could disagree.
- Add a regression test for sync that fails before the changes.
- Fix the wrong assertion.

This PR is to investigate and correct the issue. 

~~My current thoughts are that for some reason we are not closing the streams correctly, or fast enough, or the executor is not registering the closes and waking up.~~ - Pretty sure this is not the case, see message below for a more accurate reason.

~~I've currently added a timeout to stream closures in an attempt to force streams to close and the future to always complete.~~ I removed this

58b04acf28 Fix simulator issues (#2802)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #2775 

## Proposed Changes

1. Reduces the target_peers to stop recursive discovery requests.
2. Changes the eth1 `auto_update_interval` config parameter to be equal to the eth1 block time in the simulator. Without this, the eth1 `latest_cached_block` wouldn't be updated for some slots around `eth1_voting_period` boundaries which would lead to the eth1 cache falling out of sync. This is what caused the `Syncing eth1 block cache` and `No valid eth1_data votes` logs.

3919046731 Add a section on using infura as the checkpoint sync provider (#2797)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

From discord, it seems like users are a bit unclear on how to run checkpoint sync if they don't have an existing synced beacon node. Adds a note on how to use infura for the checkpoint sync feature.

931daa40d7 Add fork choice EF tests (#2737)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #2545

## Proposed Changes

Adds the long-overdue EF tests for fork choice. Although we had pretty good coverage via other implementations that closely followed our approach, it is nonetheless important for us to implement these tests too.

During testing I found that we were using a hard-coded `SAFE_SLOTS_TO_UPDATE_JUSTIFIED` value rather than one from the `ChainSpec`. This caused a failure during a minimal preset test. This doesn't represent a risk to mainnet or testnets, since the hard-coded value matched the mainnet preset.

## Failing Cases

There is one failing case which is presently marked as `SkippedKnownFailure`:

```
case 4 ("new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor") from /home/paul/development/lighthouse/testing/ef_tests/consensus-spec-tests/tests/minimal/phase0/fork_choice/on_block/pyspec_tests/new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor failed with NotEqual:
head check failed: Got Head { slot: Slot(40), root: 0x9183dbaed4191a862bd307d476e687277fc08469fc38618699863333487703e7 } | Expected Head { slot: Slot(24), root: 0x105b49b51bf7103c182aa58860b039550a89c05a4675992e2af703bd02c84570 }
```

This failure is due to #2741. It's not a particularly high priority issue at the moment, so we fix it after merging this PR.
