Adjust beacon node timeouts for validator client HTTP requests (#2352)

## Issue Addressed

Resolves #2313 

## Proposed Changes

Provide `BeaconNodeHttpClient` with a dedicated `Timeouts` struct.
This will allow granular adjustment of the timeout duration for different calls made from the VC to the BN. These can either be a constant value, or as a ratio of the slot duration.

Improve timeout performance by using these adjusted timeout duration's only whenever a fallback endpoint is available.

Add a CLI flag called `use-long-timeouts` to revert to the old behavior.

## Additional Info

Additionally set the default `BeaconNodeHttpClient` timeouts to the be the slot duration of the network, rather than a constant 12 seconds. This will allow it to adjust to different network specifications.
