cc #4842
This extracts most of the content of the
parity
crate into a new crate namedparity-lib
.The
parity
crate mostly contains themain
function, plus everything that is related to restarting the binary and applying updates.The API of
parity-lib
consists in a singlestart
function that accepts a list of CLI arguments as strings.While accepting arguments as strings is not a great thing to do, it is the most straight-forward solution for now and can always be improved in the future.
Also for now
start
just blocks until we Ctrl+C or an update is ready or an RPC request to change the chain happens. This is obviously not great either and will be changed in the future. However I don't want to introduce too many changes at once because of conflicts with other PRs (eg. #8262) and the hell of solving conflicts.I recommend reviewing commits one by one for an easier review. The first commit simply moves files, and the other ones apply some changes.
