Implement VC API (#1657)

## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Implements a HTTP API for the validator client.
- Creates EIP-2335 keystores with an empty `description` field, instead of a missing `description` field. Adds option to set name.
- Be more graceful with setups without any validators (yet)
    - Remove an error log when there are no validators.
    - Create the `validator` dir if it doesn't exist.
- Allow building a `ValidatorDir` without a withdrawal keystore (required for the API method where we only post a voting keystore).
- Add optional `description` field to `validator_definitions.yml`

## TODO

- [x] Signature header, as per https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1269#issuecomment-649879855
- [x] Return validator descriptions
- [x] Return deposit data
- [x] Respect the mnemonic offset
- [x] Check that mnemonic can derive returned keys
- [x] Be strict about non-localhost
- [x] Allow graceful start without any validators (+ create validator dir)
- [x] Docs final pass
- [x] Swap to EIP-2335 description field. 
- [x] Fix Zerioze TODO in VC api types.
- [x] Zeroize secp256k1 key

## Endpoints

- [x] `GET /lighthouse/version`
- [x] `GET /lighthouse/health`
- [x] `GET /lighthouse/validators` 
- [x] `POST /lighthouse/validators/hd`
- [x] `POST /lighthouse/validators/keystore`
- [x] `PATCH /lighthouse/validators/:validator_pubkey`
- [ ] ~~`POST /lighthouse/validators/:validator_pubkey/exit/:epoch`~~ Future works

# Validator Client API: Authorization Header
## Overview
The validator client HTTP server requires that all requests have the following
HTTP header:
- Name: `Authorization`
- Value: `Basic <api-token>`
Where `<api-token>` is a string that can be obtained from the validator client
host. Here is an example `Authorization` header:
```
Authorization Basic api-token-0x03eace4c98e8f77477bb99efb74f9af10d800bd3318f92c33b719a4644254d4123
```
## Obtaining the API token
The API token can be obtained via two methods:
### Method 1: Reading from a file
The API token is stored as a file in the `validators` directory. For most users
this is `~/.lighthouse/{testnet}/validators/api-token.txt`. Here's an
example using the `cat` command to print the token to the terminal, but any
text editor will suffice:
```
$ cat api-token.txt
api-token-0x03eace4c98e8f77477bb99efb74f9af10d800bd3318f92c33b719a4644254d4123
```
### Method 2: Reading from logs
When starting the validator client it will output a log message containing an
`api-token` field:
```
Sep 28 19:17:52.615 INFO HTTP API started api_token: api-token-0x03eace4c98e8f77477bb99efb74f9af10d800bd3318f92c33b719a4644254d4123, listen_address: 127.0.0.1:5062
```
## Example
Here is an example `curl` command using the API token in the `Authorization` header:
```bash
curl localhost:5062/lighthouse/version -H "Authorization: Basic api-token-0x03eace4c98e8f77477bb99efb74f9af10d800bd3318f92c33b719a4644254d4123"
```
The server should respond with its version:
```json
{"data":{"version":"Lighthouse/v0.2.11-fc0654fbe+/x86_64-linux"}}
```
