State cache tweaks (#7095)

Backport of:

- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/7067

For:

- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/7039


  - Prevent writing to state cache when migrating the database
- Add `state-cache-headroom` flag to control pruning
- Prune old epoch boundary states ahead of mid-epoch states
- Never prune head block's state
- Avoid caching ancestor states unless they are on an epoch boundary
- Log when states enter/exit the cache
