Introduce flag to enable sentry nodes to participate in grandpa gossip (#3018)
Given the following situation: A validator 'A' is not supposed to be connected to the public internet to protect it from e.g. a DoS attack. Instead it connects to a sentry node 'sentry-A' which connects to the public internet. Validator 'B' can reach validator 'A' via sentry node 'sentry-A' and vice versa. A sentry node needs to participate in the grandpa gossip without becoming a validator itself in order to forward these message to its validator. This commit adds a new command line flag (`--grandpa-voter`) forcing a node to participate in the grandpa voting process even though no `--key` was specified. Due to the fact that it does not have a key, it does not become a validator in the network. In order to simulate the above situation this commit also adds a Docker Compose file (`scripts/sentry-node/docker-compose.yml`) with further documentation.
