This PR enables third-party estimation for the submit transactions in the node(besides PFB). By default, fee estimation relies on the consensus node to which the node is connected. But the user can now provide a non-default endpoint, so the node will query gas price and gas from it. It can be provided via cli(using "core.estimator.address"). The address will be added to the node's config as
FeeEstimatorAddress
.Additionally, the user can now provide a maxGasPrice for every submit tx(via
max.gas.price
flag)- the max price that the user is willing to pay for the transaction. The transaction will not be submitted in case when estimated gas price exceeds the maxGasPrice(default:minGasPrice*100
)
