8. Genesis Ceremony Init

Make sure that the Contribute Validator information step is completed for each validator.

The genesis repository was created and initialized in the previous steps. Since now the ceremony officially starts, the Master of Ceremony must update the chain_start_timestamp_ms with the current timestamp. This is done by executing the ceremony init again.
