Research direction

Start by tracing the block and attestation processing entry points to find where arrivals that are too early are currently handled. Confirm how early items can be stored and retried after a short delay, then verify that both blocks and attestations are eventually processed successfully.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Sometimes a block or attestation might arrive early. We should still store it and retry after a few seconds.
