Subnet Registration: lock -> some other mechanism #294

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, if a subnet owner registers on mainnet, the cost for the subnet is locked, but not recycled. So if the subnet fails, the only people significantly affected are the miner and validator operators, who have recycled TAO to register within the subnet. I feel as if the price of failure to launch a subnet and gain emissions from the root network should actually be a price.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to see the subnet registration either: 1) Be recycled, instead of locked 2) Locked, but then apportioned out to the participants in the subnet according to the last know emissions schedule (18% for the owner, 82% for the node operators).

Describe alternatives you've considered

Actually, scratch #2. That could be exploited. Maybe it would be better just to distribute the tokens evenly across the active registrations and call it a day.
