This PR implements a general-purpose framework for sync mechanisms requesting data from multiple servers. It is intended to be used primarily by the beacon chain light client but might be used for other purposes too as it does nothing specific to the beacon chain. It implements timeouts, very simple rate limits and server selection, basically abstracting away the multiple server logic from the actual sync processes.
