This change implements CommitteeChain which is a key component of the beacon light client. It is a passive data structure that can validate, hold and update a chain of beacon light sync committees and updates, starting from a checkpoint that proves the starting committee through a beacon block hash, header and corresponding state. Once synced to the current sync period, CommitteeChain can also validate signed beacon headers.
