//! Dispute slashing pallet.
//!
//! Once a dispute is concluded, we want to slash validators who were on the
//! wrong side of the dispute. The slashing amount depends on whether the
//! candidate was valid (none at the moment) or invalid (big). In addition to
//! that, we might want to kick out the validators from the active set.
//! Currently, we limit slashing to the backing group for invalid disputes.
//!
//! The `offences` pallet from Substrate provides us with a way to do both.
//! Currently, the interface expects us to provide staking information including
//! nominator exposure in order to submit an offence.
//!
//! Normally, we'd able to fetch this information from the runtime as soon as
//! the dispute is concluded. This is also what `im-online` pallet does.
//! However, since a dispute can conclude several sessions after the candidate
//! was backed (see `dispute_period` in `HostConfiguration`), we can't rely on
//! this information being available in the context of the current block. The
//! `babe` and `grandpa` equivocation handlers also have to deal with this
//! problem.
//!
//! Our implementation looks like a hybrid of `im-online` and `grandpa`
//! equivocation handlers. Meaning, we submit an `offence` for the concluded
//! disputes about the current session candidate directly from the runtime. If,
//! however, the dispute is about a past session, we record unapplied slashes on
//! chain, without `FullIdentification` of the offenders. Later on, a block
//! producer can submit an unsigned transaction with `KeyOwnershipProof` of an
//! offender and submit it to the runtime to produce an offence.
