Bastin 26100e074d Refactor slot by blockroot (#16040)

**What does this PR do? Why is it needed?**
This PR refactors the code to find the corresponding slot of a given
block root using state summary or the block itself, into its own
function `SlotByBlockRoot(ctx, blockroot)`.

Note that there exists a function `slotByBlockRoot(ctx context.Context,
tx *bolt.Tx, blockRoot []byte)` immediately below the new function. Also
note that this function has two drawbacks, which led to creation of the
new function:
- the old function requires a boltdb tx, which is not necessarily
available to the caller.
- the old function does NOT make use of the state summary cache. 

edit: 
- the old function also uses the state bucket to retrieve the state and
it's slot. this is not something we want in the state diff feature,
since there is no state bucket.
