Implement Slashing Protection (#1116)

* Implement slashing protection

Roll-up of #588 with some conflicts resolved

* WIP improvements

* Require slot uniqueness for blocks (rather than epochs)
* Native DB support for Slot and Epoch
* Simplify surrounding/surrounded-by queries

* Implement unified slashing protection database

A single SQL database saves on open file descriptors.

* Make slashing protection concurrency safe.

Revive tests, add parallel tests.

* Some simplifications

* Auto-registration, test clean-ups

* More tests, clean-ups, hardening

* Fix comments in BLS

* Optimise bulk validator registration

* Delete outdated tests

* Use bundled SQLite in slashing protection

* Auto-register validators in simulation

* Use real signing_root in slashing protection

* Update book for --auto-register

* Refine log messages and help flags

* Correct typo in Cargo.toml authors

* Fix merge conflicts

* Safer error handling in sqlite slot/epoch

* Address review comments

* Add attestation test mutating block root

runs you should leave off the `--auto-register` flag.
You know that your validator client is running and has found your validator keys from [step 3](become-a-validator-source.html#3-start-your-beacon-node) when you see the following logs:
