Description

### What is wrong?

Right now, we can import a key to the key store for the validator client and encrypt it on disk using `eth_keyfile`.

We only ask the user for the password to this file once, with no confirmation. Obviously bad for typo failure modes.

### How can it be fixed

Confirm the password and make sure they match before accepting the imported key.
