Description

Currently, test chains carry the same block proposer for every block. This can lead to a situation where the block proposer isn't part of the validator set, such as after being jailed. This can cause the validation of validator sets to fail in CometBFT v0.38.12, see ValidateBasic.

This PR addresses the issue by incrementing the validator proposer priority in test chains, ensuring that the block proposer is updated in line with changes to the validator set.
