As a temporary measure for helping the P2P effort until proper consensus is deployed on the network Starknet has added the concept of block commitment signatures provided by the gateway. The idea is that those signatures are propagated along with block and state update data over P2P and thus nodes receiving that data can verify that the data they've received matches the data produced by the sequencer. For more details please check the community forum post.
This PR is the first step towards that direction: it implements downloading and storing the signatures in our database but does not add it to the P2P implementation yet (nor does it implement the actual verification).
