9667dc2f03 Implement checkpoint sync (#2244)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1891
Closes #1784

## Proposed Changes

Implement checkpoint sync for Lighthouse, enabling it to start from a weak subjectivity checkpoint.

## Additional Info

- [x] Return unavailable status for out-of-range blocks requested by peers (#2561)
- [x] Implement sync daemon for fetching historical blocks (#2561)
- [x] Verify chain hashes (either in `historical_blocks.rs` or the calling module)
- [x] Consistency check for initial block + state
- [x] Fetch the initial state and block from a beacon node HTTP endpoint
- [x] Don't crash fetching beacon states by slot from the API
- [x] Background service for state reconstruction, triggered by CLI flag or API call.

Considered out of scope for this PR:

- Drop the requirement to provide the `--checkpoint-block` (this would require some pretty heavy refactoring of block verification)

363f15f362 Use the database to persist the pubkey cache (#2234)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1787

## Proposed Changes

* Abstract the `ValidatorPubkeyCache` over a "backing" which is either a file (legacy), or the database.
* Implement a migration from schema v2 to schema v3, whereby the contents of the cache file are copied to the DB, and then the file is deleted. The next release to include this change must be a minor version bump, and we will need to warn users of the inability to downgrade (this is our first DB schema change since mainnet genesis).
* Move the schema migration code from the `store` crate into the `beacon_chain` crate so that it can access the datadir and the `ValidatorPubkeyCache`, etc. It gets injected back into the `store` via a closure (similar to what we do in fork choice).
