Remove Accounts Backup Validator RPC Functionality #7575

Performing accounts backup, even if the keystores are encrypted, is generally a bad idea via RPC. This should be something the user should be in full control over, and we should be careful about enabling such dangerous functionality via the web interface for Prysm, as an attacker could just take all the private keys. This PR removes the accounts backup RPC endpoint.
