Igor Matuszewski 028f3d2674 Merge 2.0.1 backport branch into mainline master (#7842)
* Backport paritytech/substrate#7381

* Bring back genesis storage build in aura/timestamp

To not change spec version, see
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/7686#discussion_r540032743

* Backport paritytech/substrate#7238

* Backport paritytech/substrate#7395

* Bump impl_version

* Fix UI tests and bump trybuild dep

See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/73996

Backports:
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/7764
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/7656

* Partially backport paritytech/substrate#7838

* Release frame-support with a dep compilation fix

* Bump patch level for remaining crates

This is done because at the time of writing cargo-unleash does not fully
support partial workspace publishing and mixes both local and crates.io
versions of the packages, leading to errors in the release check workflow.

* Backport paritytech/substrate#7854

...to fix compilation error when using futures-* v0.3.9.

* Adding Changelog  entry for patch release

Treasury Module

The Treasury module provides a "pot" of funds that can be managed by stakeholders in the system and a structure for making spending proposals from this pot.

Overview

The Treasury Module itself provides the pot to store funds, and a means for stakeholders to propose, approve, and deny expenditures. The chain will need to provide a method (e.g.inflation, fees) for collecting funds.

By way of example, the Council could vote to fund the Treasury with a portion of the block reward and use the funds to pay developers.

Terminology

  • Proposal: A suggestion to allocate funds from the pot to a beneficiary.
  • Beneficiary: An account who will receive the funds from a proposal if the proposal is approved.
  • Deposit: Funds that a proposer must lock when making a proposal. The deposit will be returned or slashed if the proposal is approved or rejected respectively.
  • Pot: Unspent funds accumulated by the treasury module.

Interface

Dispatchable Functions

General spending/proposal protocol:

  • propose_spend - Make a spending proposal and stake the required deposit.
  • reject_proposal - Reject a proposal, slashing the deposit.
  • approve_proposal - Accept the proposal, returning the deposit.
