#4149 changed this, but it's unclear why.

Meanwhile, since then:

(genesis_validators_root modified for mainnet compatibility for easier testing)

With this PR's change:

$ build/nimbus_beacon_node slashingdb import ~/eip3076_example.json
INF 2023-05-26 21:30:34.479+00:00 No slashing protection data for validator - initiating topics="antislash" validator=b845089a1457f811bfc000588fbb4e713669be8ce060ea6be3c6ece09afc3794106c91ca73acda5e5457122d58723bed
Import finished: 'eip3076_example.json' into '.cache/nimbus/BeaconNode/validators/slashing_protection.sqlite3'

https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-3076#json-schema confirms that these signing_root fields are, in fact, optional and not required.

https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/blob/unstable/tests/slashing_protection/test_fixtures.nim and https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/blob/unstable/tests/slashing_protection/test_slashing_protection_db.nim test that these schema variations work, but in this case, nimbus_beacon_node has been preventing the slashing protection database import code from ever seeing the JSON.

Since requireAllFields honors the optionality of fields using the Option[T] type, another fix is to explicitly mark the optional fields as such. requireAllFields = false is a more dangerous policy that may allow genuinely invalid SPDIR files to be processed. Please note that I haven't looked at the specifics of the SPDIR format before making this comment - I assume that not all fields are optional.

Indeed, this marks only optional fields as optional.

The specific stand-in value of 0x0 was what, in practice, it already used when the signing_root field was missing, so this doesn't change the semantics of that case.
