Fix Gloas http-api-tests failures

Two tests fail under FORK_NAME=gloas; only the first surfaces in CI
because nextest aborts on the first failure.

1. status_tests::node_health_el_online_and_not_synced

   The test simulates "EL online but not synced" via
   mock_el.server.all_payloads_syncing(true), expecting the head to
   become optimistic so the endpoint returns 206. In Gloas, blocks
   don't carry execution payloads — the payload arrives via an
   envelope, so newPayload is never called during block import and
   the head is never marked optimistic. The endpoint correctly
   returns 200. Skip the test for Gloas, matching the existing
   pattern on el_error_on_new_payload.

2. tests::get_validator_payload_attestation_data

   Two issues stacked:
   - The test used ApiTester::new() (default phase0 spec) so the
     chain wasn't actually at the Gloas fork even with
     FORK_NAME=gloas. Switch to new_with_hard_forks(), which uses
     test_spec() and respects FORK_NAME.
   - produce_payload_attestation_data requires
     head.slot == request_slot, but the harness leaves the slot
     clock at head_slot + 1 with no block produced for that slot.
     Rewind the slot clock to the head slot in the test helper.

Full Gloas http-api suite: 193 tests run: 193 passed.
