github.com/spf13/viper's recent releases introduced a semantic
change in some public API such as viper.IsSet(), which have
broken some of our flags checks. Instead of checking whether
users have changed a flag's default value we should rely on such
defaults and adjust runtime behaviour accordingly. In order to do
so, it's important that we pick sane defaults for all our flags.
The --pruning flag and configuration option now allow for a
fake custom strategy. When users elect custom, then the
pruning-{keep,snapshot}-every options are interpreted and
parsed; else they're ignored.
Zero is pruning-{keep,snapshot}-every default value. When
users choose to set a custom pruning strategy they are
signalling that they want more fine-grainted control, therefore
it's legitimate to expect them to know what they are doing and
enter valid values for both options.
Ref #5964
crypto/keyring:
`Keybase` interface gives way to its successor: `Keyring`. `LegacyKeybase`
interface is added in order to guarantee limited backward compatibility with
the old `Keybase` interface for the sole purpose of migrating keys across
the new keyring backends.
The package no longer depends on the `github.com/types.Config`
singleton.
`SupportedAlgos` and `SupportedLedgerAlgos` methods have been removed.
The keyring just fails when trying to perform an action with an unsupported
algorithm.
crypto/ subdirs reorganization:
`crypto/keys/hd` was moved to `crypto/hd`, which now groups together
all HD wallets related types and utilities.
client/input:
* Removal of unnecessary `GetCheckPassword`, `PrintPrefixed` functions.
* `GetConfirmation`'s signature changed to take in a io.Writer for better integration
with `cobra.Command` types.
client/context:
* In-memory keyring is allocated in the context when `--gen-only` flag is passed
in. `GetFromFields` does no longer silently allocate a keyring, it takes one as
argument.
