Enable multi node attestation consensus for the VC

[eserilev]

Allow for the VC to query all BN's at the beginning of each epoch and only enable attestation for that epoch if source and target checkpoint matches for a threshold of BN's

TODO

• make sure we are only comparing relevant fields in attestation data
• As an optimization only check attestation data for the first slot in an epoch
• Ensure we only fetch attestation data for the BN whose attestation data matches consensus
• Allow for consensus threshold to be set via CLI flag
• Write tests
• Test w/ single and multi bn setups w/ multiple consensus thresholds

Yes, I find it very interesting! Thank you! (This is the corpo account. I'm forwarding this to the Galaxy team as a potential option)

Just curious are you gonna just pick one BN to get the ghost head (beacon_block_root)?

@0xmrree im actually doing most of my development on this branch at the moment
eserilev#26

i've isolated the changes there to make things a bit easier to review

I'm not using the beacon block root at all. I'm just comparing the source and target checkpoints across all connected BN's and if a threshold agrees, I attest with one of the nodes that are in agreement. If a consensus threshold isnt reach, attestation is disabled for that epoch.

• Closing for now, the idea is solid but move to an issue
