guha-rahul 4584616eeb feat: add Era File Reading and Writing (#8035)
**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)
