Nairobi: a Tezos protocol proposal

[serrq]

The Nairobi protocol proposal contains several updates and improvements to the Tezos economic protocol, the most prominent being:

• An up to 8x increase in TPS for certain manager operations (including tez transfers and smart contract calls).

• Improved gas model for signatures to reflect the cost of different curves.

• Renaming endorsements to attestations.
Faster propagation of pre-attestations to reach consensus earlier.

• New host functions for Smart Rollups, and new internal Layer 2 messages allowing rollup kernels to be aware of Tezos protocol upgrades.
