Ecotone Network Upgrade

The following information is how you can prepare your nodes for the Ecotone upgrade. There is a new Beacon endpoint for op-node, because soon after the Ecotone activation, batch transactions will be sent as 4844 blobs, and blobs can only be retrieved from Beacon nodes.

If you're using Lighthouse, make sure to use at least the finalized version v4.6.0 because the latest rc contains a bug in its blob_sidecars http endpoint.
