//! `start` subcommand - entry point for starting a zebra node
//!
//! ## Application Structure
//!
//! A zebra node consists of the following services and tasks:
//!
//! * Network Service
//! * primary interface to the node
//! * handles all external network requests for the zcash protocol
//! * provides an interface to the rest of the network for other services and
//! tasks running within this node
//! * Consensus Service
//! * handles all validation logic for the node
//! * verifies blocks using zebra-chain and zebra-script, then stores verified
//! blocks in zebra-state
//! * Sync Task
//! * This task runs in the background and continouously queries the network for
//! new blocks to be verified and added to the local state
