Flexible service identity rotation #8264

Description

@maxtropets

Came out of #7848.

End goal: rotate identities in live network and distribute them correctly.

Pitfalls, as on top of author's head:

  • consensus problem
    • putting private keys on ledger is a security downgrade
    • keeping them in mem-only needs ordered distribution and has to survive elections
    • only primary can do that, as the corresponding public part has to be committed
    • has to survive rollbacks
  • endorsement chains from one-per-service -> flexible
  • snapshot-recovery endorsement lookup
