nimbus/run.shranrm -rf /home/user/dataon every start, which also wiped the Nimbus VC's slashing protection DB (validators/slashing_protection.sqlite3). It now removes only the previously imported keys (secrets/andvalidators/0x*) before re-importing them, matching charon-distributed-validator-cluster.Before #490 the wipe mostly failed silently, because uid 1000 couldn't write to the root-owned
./data/vc-nimbus. Now that #490 hands that directory to uid 1000, it succeeds on every restart.
