## Proposed Changes Add a `lighthouse db` command with three initial subcommands: - `lighthouse db version`: print the database schema version. - `lighthouse db migrate --to N`: manually upgrade (or downgrade!) the database to a different version. - `lighthouse db inspect --column C`: log the key and size in bytes of every value in a given `DBColumn`. This PR lays the groundwork for other changes, namely: - Mark's fast-deposit sync (https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2915), for which I think we should implement a database downgrade (from v9 to v8). - My `tree-states` work, which already implements a downgrade (v10 to v8). - Standalone purge commands like `lighthouse db purge-dht` per https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2824. ## Additional Info I updated the `strum` crate to 0.24.0, which necessitated some changes in the network code to remove calls to deprecated methods. Thanks to @winksaville for the motivation, and implementation work that I used as a source of inspiration (https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2685).
