Bastian Köcher 5d73e960da Convert timestamp to unit type wrapper (#8333)
The timestamp inherent type was up to now just a simple `u64`. This
worked, but doesn't give you that much guarantees at compile time about
the type. This pr changes that by converting this type to a unit type
wrapper, similar to what we have done for `Slot`.

This is required for some future pr that touches quite a lot of the
inherents stuff :)

Besides this unit wrapper type, this pr also moves the `OnTimestampSet`
trait to `frame_support::traits`.

Aura Module

Overview

The Aura module extends Aura consensus by managing offline reporting.

Interface

Public Functions

  • slot_duration - Determine the Aura slot-duration based on the Timestamp module configuration.
  • Timestamp: The Timestamp module is used in Aura to track consensus rounds (via slots).

References

If you're interested in hacking on this module, it is useful to understand the interaction with substrate/primitives/inherents/src/lib.rs and, specifically, the required implementation of ProvideInherent and ProvideInherentData to create and check inherents.
