To summarize the changes:
1. I did not manage to validate with types the service's Configuration. But I did reduce the possibility of errors by moving all the "fill" functions to their respective structopts
2. I split params.rs to multiple modules: one module params for just CLI parameters and one module commands for CLI subcommands (and RunCmd). Every command and params are in their own file so things are grouped better together and easier to remove
3. I removed the run and run_subcommand helpers as they are not helping much anymore. Running a command is always a set of 3 commands: 1. init 2. update config 3. run. This still allow the user to change the config before arguments get parsed or right after.
4. I added tests for all subcommands.
5. [deleted]
Overall the aim is to improve the situation with the Configuration and the optional parameters, add tests, make the API more consistent and simpler.
It changes the way we extended the CLI functionalities of substrate to allow more flexibility. (If this was not clear, here is another version: it changes the `sc_cli` API to allow more flexibility).
This touches a few important things:
- the startup of the async task with tokei:
This was in node and node-template and I moved it to substrate. The idea is to have 1 time the code that handles unix signals (SIGTERM and SIGINT) properly. It is however possible to make this more generic to wait for a future instead and provide only a helper for the basic handling of SIGTERM and SIGINT.
- increased the version of structopt and tokei
- no more use of structopt internal's API
- less use of generics
Related to #4643 and https://github.com/paritytech/cumulus/pull/42: the implementation of "into_configuration" and "get_config" are similar but with better flexibility so it is now possible in cumulus to have the command-line arguments only of the run command for polkadot if we want
Related to https://github.com/paritytech/cumulus/issues/24 and https://github.com/paritytech/cumulus/issues/34 : it will now be possible to make a configuration struct for polkadot with some overrides of the default parameters much more easily.
