## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2521
## Proposed Changes
Add a metric that indicates the next attestation duty slot for all managed validators in the validator client.
## Issue Addressed
#3853
## Proposed Changes
Added `INFO` level logs for requesting and receiving the unsigned block.
## Additional Info
Logging for successfully publishing the signed block is already there. And seemingly there is a log for when "We realize we are going to produce a block" in the `start_update_service`: `info!(log, "Block production service started");
`. Is there anywhere else you'd like to see logging around this event?

## Issue Addressed
#3780
## Proposed Changes
Add error reporting that notifies the node operator that the `voting_keystore_path` in their `validator_definitions.yml` file may be incorrect.

## Proposed Changes
With proposer boosting implemented (#2822) we have an opportunity to re-org out late blocks.
This PR adds three flags to the BN to control this behaviour:
* `--disable-proposer-reorgs`: turn aggressive re-orging off (it's on by default).
* `--proposer-reorg-threshold N`: attempt to orphan blocks with less than N% of the committee vote. If this parameter isn't set then N defaults to 20% when the feature is enabled.
* `--proposer-reorg-epochs-since-finalization N`: only attempt to re-org late blocks when the number of epochs since finalization is less than or equal to N. The default is 2 epochs, meaning re-orgs will only be attempted when the chain is finalizing optimally.
For safety Lighthouse will only attempt a re-org under very specific conditions:
1. The block being proposed is 1 slot after the canonical head, and the canonical head is 1 slot after its parent. i.e. at slot `n + 1` rather than building on the block from slot `n` we build on the block from slot `n - 1`.
2. The current canonical head received less than N% of the committee vote. N should be set depending on the proposer boost fraction itself, the fraction of the network that is believed to be applying it, and the size of the largest entity that could be hoarding votes.
3. The current canonical head arrived after the attestation deadline from our perspective. This condition was only added to support suppression of forkchoiceUpdated messages, but makes intuitive sense.
4. The block is being proposed in the first 2 seconds of the slot. This gives it time to propagate and receive the proposer boost.

## Issue Addressed
#3766
## Proposed Changes
Adds an endpoint to get the graffiti that will be used for the next block proposal for each validator.
## Usage
```bash
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer api-token" http://localhost:9095/lighthouse/ui/graffiti | jq
```
```json
{
"data": {
"0x81283b7a20e1ca460ebd9bbd77005d557370cabb1f9a44f530c4c4c66230f675f8df8b4c2818851aa7d77a80ca5a4a5e": "mr f was here",
"0xa3a32b0f8b4ddb83f1a0a853d81dd725dfe577d4f4c3db8ece52ce2b026eca84815c1a7e8e92a4de3d755733bf7e4a9b": "mr v was here",
"0x872c61b4a7f8510ec809e5b023f5fdda2105d024c470ddbbeca4bc74e8280af0d178d749853e8f6a841083ac1b4db98f": null
}
}
```
## Additional Info
This will only return graffiti that the validator client knows about.
That is from these 3 sources:
1. Graffiti File
2. validator_definitions.yml
3. The `--graffiti` flag on the VC
If the graffiti is set on the BN, it will not be returned. This may warrant an additional endpoint on the BN side which can be used in the event the endpoint returns `null`.
This PR adds some health endpoints for the beacon node and the validator client.
Specifically it adds the endpoint:
`/lighthouse/ui/health`
These are not entirely stable yet. But provide a base for modification for our UI.
These also may have issues with various platforms and may need modification.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#3612
## Proposed Changes
- Iterates through BNs until it finds a non-optimistic head.
A slight change in error behavior:
- Previously: `spawn_contribution_tasks` did not return an error for a non-optimistic block head. It returned `Ok(())` logged a warning.
- Now: `spawn_contribution_tasks` returns an error if it cannot find a non-optimistic block head. The caller of `spawn_contribution_tasks` then logs the error as a critical error.

## Summary
The deposit cache now has the ability to finalize deposits. This will cause it to drop unneeded deposit logs and hashes in the deposit Merkle tree that are no longer required to construct deposit proofs. The cache is finalized whenever the latest finalized checkpoint has a new `Eth1Data` with all deposits imported.
This has three benefits:
1. Improves the speed of constructing Merkle proofs for deposits as we can just replay deposits since the last finalized checkpoint instead of all historical deposits when re-constructing the Merkle tree.
2. Significantly faster weak subjectivity sync as the deposit cache can be transferred to the newly syncing node in compressed form. The Merkle tree that stores `N` finalized deposits requires a maximum of `log2(N)` hashes. The newly syncing node then only needs to download deposits since the last finalized checkpoint to have a full tree.
3. Future proofing in preparation for [EIP-4444](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-4444) as execution nodes will no longer be required to store logs permanently so we won't always have all historical logs available to us.
## More Details
Image to illustrate how the deposit contract merkle tree evolves and finalizes along with the resulting `DepositTreeSnapshot`

## Other Considerations
I've changed the structure of the `SszDepositCache` so once you load & save your database from this version of lighthouse, you will no longer be able to load it from older versions.

## Issue Addressed
Resolves#3516
## Proposed Changes
Adds a beacon fallback function for running a beacon node http query on all available fallbacks instead of returning on a first successful result. Uses the new `run_on_all` method for attestation and sync committee subscriptions.
## Additional Info
Please provide any additional information. For example, future considerations
or information useful for reviewers.
## Issue Addressed
fixes lints from the last rust release
## Proposed Changes
Fix the lints, most of the lints by `clippy::question-mark` are false positives in the form of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/9518 so it's allowed for now
