What type of PR is this?
What does this PR do? Why is it needed?
This significantly reduces the amount of head state copy for RPC attester from
ASSIGNED_COMMITTED_COUNT
down to 1. With great saving when there's multiple keys, because chances are a validator client are assigned to more than 1 committee. In the current experiment, we see with 50 validators, the validator client are very often assigned to 8 committees per slot. That's 7 extra copies saved. This works because shard is not in play for phase 0, all committees are the same from beacon node's perspective.Gated behind feature flag

Other notes for review
