Fixes #179 # Description This PR makes the structure containing identity information used in `pallet-identity` generic through the pallet `Config`. Additionally, the old structure is now available in a separate module called `simple` (pending rename) and is compatible with the new interface. Another change in this PR is that while the `additional` field in `IdentityInfo` stays for backwards compatibility reasons, the associated costs are stil present in the pallet through the `additional` function in the `IdentityInformationProvider` interface. This function is marked as deprecated as it is only a temporary solution to the backwards compatibility problem we had. In short, we could have removed the additional fields in the struct and done a migration, but we chose to wait and do it off-chain through the genesis of the system parachain. After we move the identity pallet to the parachain, additional fields will be migrated into the existing fields and the `additional` key-value store will be removed. Until that happens, this interface will provide the necessary information to properly account for the associated costs. Additionally, this PR fixes an unrelated issue; the `IdentityField` enum used to represent the fields as bitflags couldn't store more than 8 fields, even though it was marked as `#[repr(u64)]`. This was because of the `derive` implementation of `TypeInfo`, which assumed `u8` semantics. The custom implementation of this trait in https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/commit/0105cc0396b7a53d0b290f48b1225847f6d17321 fixes the issue. --------- Signed-off-by: georgepisaltu <george.pisaltu@parity.io> Co-authored-by: Sam Johnson <sam@durosoft.com> Co-authored-by: joe petrowski <25483142+joepetrowski@users.noreply.github.com>

License
- Substrate Primitives (
sp-*), Frame (frame-*) and the pallets (pallets-*), binaries (/bin) and all other utilities are licensed under Apache 2.0. - Substrate Client (/client/*/sc-*) is licensed under GPL v3.0 with a classpath linking exception.
The reason for the split-licensing is to ensure that for the vast majority of teams using Substrate to create feature-chains, then all changes can be made entirely in Apache2-licensed code, allowing teams full freedom over what and how they release and giving licensing clarity to commercial teams.
In the interests of the community, we require any deeper improvements made to Substrate's core logic (e.g. Substrate's internal consensus, crypto or database code) to be contributed back so everyone can benefit.
