Wei Tang 9fdd4672b0 Use tracing-based subscriber logging (#6825)
* init_logger: switch from log-based to tracing-based and add compatibility layer

* Move tracing profiling subscriber related config realization

* sp-tracing: change profiling to be a layer instead of a subscriber

* Enable profiling layer in cli

* Change all test env_logger init to sp_tracing::try_init_simple

* Remove all local env_logger dependency

* Add missing tracing-subscriber dependency

* frame-sudo: fix tests

* frame-support: fix tests

* Fix frame/pallet and executor tests

* Fix the remaining tests

* Use subscriber's try_init as recommended by @davidbarsky

* Be explict that the tracing-log feature is needed

* Set subscriber writer to stderr

* Shorter line width

* Update cargo lock tracing version

* Fix sc_tracing crate compile

* Fix sc_authority_discovery crate test

* unremove default-features

* Leave enabled to default true

* Warn if global default cannot be set

* Fix unused import

* Remove unused PROXY_TARGET

* Change all reference from rc5 to rc6

* Change all reference of rc2 to rc6

* Fix styling

Substrate offchain workers.

The offchain workers is a special function of the runtime that gets executed after block is imported. During execution it's able to asynchronously submit extrinsics that will either be propagated to other nodes or added to the next block produced by the node as unsigned transactions.

Offchain workers can be used for computation-heavy tasks that are not feasible for execution during regular block processing. It can either be tasks that no consensus is required for, or some form of consensus over the data can be built on-chain for instance via:

  1. Challenge period for incorrect computations
  2. Majority voting for results
  3. etc
