Issue 650 authority discovery #669

Closed heversonbr closed 1 year ago

heversonbr commented 1 year ago

This adds the sub-section "Discovering authorities" to the Network Section of the Spec. It describes the authority discovery mechanism and its interactions with Polkadot nodes and with the DHT layer.

I know I'm being a pain, but ideally a PR that describes authority discovery shouldn't at the same time make small unrelated changes to half of the networking chapter. Pull requests are free, there's no need to merge multiple unrelated changes into one PR.
