Michael Sproul 38fdaf791c Fix proposer shuffling decision slot at boundary (#8128)
Follow-up to the bug fixed in:

This fixes the root cause of that bug, which was introduced by me in:

  In the methods that compute the proposer shuffling decision root, ensure we don't use lookahead for the Fulu fork epoch itself. This is accomplished by checking if Fulu is enabled at `epoch - 1`, i.e. if `epoch > fulu_fork_epoch`.

I haven't updated the methods that _compute_ shufflings to use these new corrected bounds (e.g. `BeaconState::compute_proposer_indices`), although we could make this change in future. The `get_beacon_proposer_indices` method already gracefully handles the Fulu boundary case by using the `proposer_lookahead` field (if initialised).
