## Issue Addressed
Resolves#1744
## Proposed Changes
- Add `directory::ensure_dir_exists` to the `ValidatorDefinition::open_or_create` method
- As @pawanjay176 suggested, making the `--validator-dir` non-global so users are forced to include the flag after the `validator` subcommand. Current behavior seems to be ignoring the flag if it comes after something like `validator import`
## Additional Info

## Issue Addressed
Fixes#1665.
## Proposed Changes
`lighthouse account_manager wallet create` now generates a 24-word
mnemonic. The user can override this by passing `--mnemonic-length 12`
(or another legal bip39 length).
## Additional Info
CLI `--help`:
```
--mnemonic-length <MNEMONIC_LENGTH> The number of words to use for the mnemonic phrase. [default: 24]
```
In case of an invalid argument:
```
% lighthouse account_manager wallet create --mnemonic-length 25
error: Invalid value for '--mnemonic-length <MNEMONIC_LENGTH>': Mnemonic length must be one of 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
```
Closes#1487Closes#1427
Directory restructure in accordance with #1487. Also has temporary migration code to move the old directories into new structure.
Also extracts all default directory names and utility functions into a `directory` crate to avoid repetitio.
~Since `validator_definition.yaml` stores absolute paths, users will have to manually change the keystore paths or delete the file to get the validators picked up by the vc.~. `validator_definition.yaml` is migrated as well from the default directories.

## Issue Addressed
#1437
## Proposed Changes
- Make the `--wallet-password` flag optional and creates an interactive prompt if not provided.
- Make the `--wallet-name` flag optional and creates an interactive prompt if not provided.
- Add a minimum password requirement of a 12 character length.
- Update the `--stdin-passwords` flag to `--stdin-inputs` because we have non-password user inputs

## Proposed Changes
Add a `lighthouse am wallet recover` command that recreates a wallet from a mnemonic but no validator keys. Add a `lighthouse am validator recover` command which would directly create keys from a mnemonic for a given index and count.

## Proposed Changes
- Fix a wrong command in the validator generation example.
- Replace occurrences of 'passphrase' with 'password'. This is mostly because I felt that there was a lot of mixing of the two phrases in the documentation and the actual commands which is a bit confusing. Picked 'password' everywhere because it felt more appropriate but I don't mind changing it to 'passphrase' as long it's consistent everywhere.
## Proposed Changes
Fixes some sharp edges on the new `lighthouse account validator list` command, and the account manager CLI.
* Validator names/keys are always printed in the same order due to the use of a sorted `BTreeMap`
* The `validator list` subcommand now respects the `--validator-dir` flag, instead of always looking in `~/.lighthouse/validators`
* The `--help` now shows a description for the `wallet` subcommand instead of just `TODO`

## Proposed Changes
- Introduces the `valdiator_definitions.yml` file which serves as an explicit list of validators that should be run by the validator client.
- Removes `--strict` flag, split into `--strict-lockfiles` and `--disable-auto-discover`
- Adds a "Validator Management" page to the book.
- Adds the `common/account_utils` crate which contains some logic that was starting to duplicate across the codebase.
The new docs for this feature are the best description of it (apart from the code, I guess): 9cb87e93ce/book/src/validator-management.md
## API Changes
This change should be transparent for *most* existing users. If the `valdiator_definitions.yml` doesn't exist then it will be automatically generated using a method that will detect all the validators in their `validators_dir`.
Users will have issues if they are:
1. Using `--strict`.
1. Have keystores in their `~/.lighthouse/validators` directory that weren't being detected by the current keystore discovery method.
For users with (1), the VC will refuse to start because the `--strict` flag has been removed. They will be forced to review `--help` and choose an equivalent flag.
For users with (2), this seems fairly unlikely and since we're only in testnets there's no *real* value on the line here. I'm happy to take the risk, it would be a different case for mainnet.
## Additional Info
This PR adds functionality we will need for #1347.
## TODO
- [x] Reconsider flags
- [x] Move doc into a more reasonable chapter.
- [x] Check for compile warnings.
