**Motivation**
Replace deprecated Holesky network support with Hoodi testnet
configuration. Hoodi is a new Ethereum testnet that will serve as a
replacement testnet, and this change updates Lodestar to support the new
network configuration.
**Description**
This PR removes Holesky network configuration and replaces all
references with Hoodi testnet support. Changes include:
- Removed `packages/cli/src/networks/holesky.ts` network file
- Removed `packages/config/src/chainConfig/networks/holesky.ts` chain
config
- Updated all network references from "holesky" to "hoodi" across CLI,
config, and test files
- Added Hoodi network configuration with proper chain parameters,
genesis data, and bootnodes
- Updated default environment configuration
- Updated unit tests to reflect the network change

**Motivation**
- tracks #7048
-
[era](https://github.com/eth-clients/e2store-format-specs/blob/main/formats/era.md)
specs.
**Description**
- Adds functionality to read/write to
[e2s](613f4a9a50/docs/e2store.md (era-files))
files
```ts
import {open} from "node:fs/promises";
import {e2s} from "@lodestar/era";
const fh = await open("mainnet-xxxxxx-xxxxxxxx.era");
const entry = await e2s.readEntry(fh, 0);
entry.type == e2s.EntryType.Version
```
- Adds functionality to read/write era files
```ts
import {era} from "@lodestar/era";
import {config} from "@lodestar/config/default";
// open reader
const reader = await era.EraReader.open(config, "mainnet-xxxxx-xxxxxxxx.era");
// check number of groups
reader.groups.length === 1;
// read blocks
const slot = reader.groups[0].startSlot;
// return snappy-frame compressed, ssz-serialized block at slot or null if a skip slot
// throws if out of range
await reader.readCompressedBlock(slot);
// same, but for ssz-serialized block
await reader.readSerializedBlock(slot);
// same but for deserialized block
await reader.readBlock(slot);
// read state(s), one per group
// similar api to blocks, but with an _optional_ eraNumber param for specifying which group's state to read
await reader.readCompressedState();
await reader.readSerializedState();
await reader.readState();
// write era files
const writer = await era.EraWriter.create(config, "path/to/era");
// similar api to reader, can write compressed, serialized, or deserialized items
// first write all blocks for the era
await writer.writeBlock(block);
// ...
// then write the state
await writer.writeState(state);
// if applicable, continue writing eras of blocks and state (an era file can contain multiple eras, or "groups" as the spec states)
// when finished, must call `finish`, which will close the file handler and _rename_ the file to the spec-compliant name
await writer.finish();
```
- e2e test reads an era file, does all validation, writes an era fila,
does validation on that freshly created file
- requires the era file fixture to be downloaded (`cd packages/era/test
&& ./download_era_file.sh`)
- e2e test is skipped (`test:e2e` is not defined for the era package)
