## Issue Addressed
#4233
## Proposed Changes
Remove the `best_justified_checkpoint` from the `PersistedForkChoiceStore` type as it is now unused.
Additionally, remove the `Option`'s wrapping the `justified_checkpoint` and `finalized_checkpoint` fields on `ProtoNode` which were only present to facilitate a previous migration.
Include the necessary code to facilitate the migration to a new DB schema.
## Issue Addressed
Addresses #4234
## Proposed Changes
- Skip withdrawals processing in an inconsistent state replay.
- Repurpose `StateRootStrategy`: rename to `StateProcessingStrategy` and always skip withdrawals if using `StateProcessingStrategy::Inconsistent`
- Add a test to reproduce the scenario

## Limit Backfill Sync
This PR transitions Lighthouse from syncing all the way back to genesis to only syncing back to the weak subjectivity point (~ 5 months) when syncing via a checkpoint sync.
There are a number of important points to note with this PR:
- Firstly and most importantly, this PR fundamentally shifts the default security guarantees of checkpoint syncing in Lighthouse. Prior to this PR, Lighthouse could verify the checkpoint of any given chain by ensuring the chain eventually terminates at the corresponding genesis. This guarantee can still be employed via the new CLI flag --genesis-backfill which will prompt lighthouse to the old behaviour of downloading all blocks back to genesis. The new behaviour only checks the proposer signatures for the last 5 months of blocks but cannot guarantee the chain matches the genesis chain.
- I have not modified any of the peer scoring or RPC responses. Clients syncing from gensis, will downscore new Lighthouse peers that do not possess blocks prior to the WSP. This is by design, as Lighthouse nodes of this form, need a mechanism to sort through peers in order to find useful peers in order to complete their genesis sync. We therefore do not discriminate between empty/error responses for blocks prior or post the local WSP. If we request a block that a peer does not posses, then fundamentally that peer is less useful to us than other peers.
- This will make a radical shift in that the majority of nodes will no longer store the full history of the chain. In the future we could add a pruning mechanism to remove old blocks from the db also.

## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
- Implements https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3290/
- Bumps `ef-tests` to [v1.3.0-rc.4](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-spec-tests/releases/tag/v1.3.0-rc.4).
The `CountRealizedFull` concept has been removed and the `--count-unrealized-full` and `--count-unrealized` BN flags now do nothing but log a `WARN` when used.
## Database Migration Debt
This PR removes the `best_justified_checkpoint` from fork choice. This field is persisted on-disk and the correct way to go about this would be to make a DB migration to remove the field. However, in this PR I've simply stubbed out the value with a junk value. I've taken this approach because if we're going to do a DB migration I'd love to remove the `Option`s around the justified and finalized checkpoints on `ProtoNode` whilst we're at it. Those options were added in #2822 which was included in Lighthouse v2.1.0. The options were only put there to handle the migration and they've been set to `Some` ever since v2.1.0. There's no reason to keep them as options anymore.
I started adding the DB migration to this branch but I started to feel like I was bloating this rather critical PR with nice-to-haves. I've kept the partially-complete migration [over in my repo](https://github.com/paulhauner/lighthouse/tree/fc-pr-18-migration) so we can pick it up after this PR is merged.
## Issue Addressed
Cleans up all the remnants of 4844 in capella. This makes sure when 4844 is reviewed there is nothing we are missing because it got included here
## Proposed Changes
drop a bomb on every 4844 thing
## Additional Info
Merge process I did (locally) is as follows:
- squash merge to produce one commit
- in new branch off unstable with the squashed commit create a `git revert HEAD` commit
- merge that new branch onto 4844 with `--strategy ours`
- compare local 4844 to remote 4844 and make sure the diff is empty
- enjoy

## Issue Addressed
Fix a bug introduced by #3696. The bug is not expected to occur frequently, so releasing this PR is non-urgent.
## Proposed Changes
* Add a variant to `StoreOp` that allows a raw KV operation to be passed around.
* Return to using `self.store.do_atomically` rather than `self.store.hot_db.do_atomically`. This streamlines the write back into a single call and makes our auto-revert work again.
* Prevent `import_block_update_shuffling_cache` from failing block import. This is an outstanding bug from before v3.4.0 which may have contributed to some random unexplained database corruption.
## Additional Info
In #3696 I split the database write into two calls, one to convert the `StoreOp`s to `KeyValueStoreOp`s and one to write them. This had the unfortunate side-effect of damaging our atomicity guarantees in case of a write error. If the first call failed, we would be left with the block in fork choice but not on-disk (or the snapshot cache), which would prevent us from processing any descendant blocks. On `unstable` the first call is very unlikely to fail unless the disk is full, but on `tree-states` the conversion is more involved and a user reported database corruption after it failed in a way that should have been recoverable.
Additionally, as @emhane observed, #3696 also inadvertently removed the import of the new block into the block cache. Although this seems like it could have negatively impacted performance, there are several mitigating factors:
- For regular block processing we should almost always load the parent block (and state) from the snapshot cache.
- We often load blinded blocks, which bypass the block cache anyway.
- Metrics show no noticeable increase in the block cache miss rate with v3.4.0.
However, I expect the block cache _will_ be useful again in `tree-states`, so it is restored to use by this PR.
