      Add Rococo People <> Rococo Bulletin bridge support to Rococo Bridge Hub (#2540) · 097308e3
      Svyatoslav Nikolsky authored
      This PR adds [Rococo
      People](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2281) <> [Rococo
      Bulletin](https://github.com/zdave-parity/polkadot-bulletin-chain) to
      the Rococo Bridge Hub code. There's a couple of things left to do here:
      - [x] add remaining tests - it'd need some refactoring in the
      `bridge-hub-test-utils` - will do in a separate PR;
      - [x] actually run benchmarks for new messaging pallet (do we have bot
      nowadays?).
      
      The reason why I'm opening it before this ^^^ is ready, is that I'd like
      to hear others opinion on how to deal with hacks with that bridge.
      Initially I was assuming that Rococo Bulletin will be the 1:1 copy of
      the Polkadot Bulletin (to avoid maintaining multiple
      runtimes/releases/...), so you can see many `PolkadotBulletin` mentions
      in this PR, even though we are going to bridge with the parallel chain
      (`RococoBulletin`). That's because e.g. pallet names from
      `construct_runtime` are affecting runtime storage keys and bridges are
      using runtime storage proofs => it is important to use names that the
      Bulletin chain expects.
      
      But in the end, this hack won't work - we can't use Polkadot Bulletin
      runtime to bridge with Rococo Bridge Hub, because Polkadot Bulletin
      expects Polkadot Bridge hub to use `1002` parachain id and Rococo Bridge
      Hub seats on the `1013`. This also affects storage keys using in
      bridging, so I had to add the [`rococo`
      feature](https://github.com/svyatonik/polkadot-bulletin-chain/blob/add-bridge-pallets/runtime/Cargo.toml#L198)
      to the Bulletin chain. So now we can actually alter its runtime and
      adapt it for Rococo.
      
      So the question here is - what's better for us here
      - to leave everything as is (seems hacky and non-trivial);
      - change Bulletin chain runtime when `rococo` feature is used - e.g. use
      proper names there (`WithPolkadotGrandpa` -> `WithRococoGrandpa`, ...)
      - add another set of pallets to the Bulletin chain runtime to bridge
      with Rococo and never use them in production. Similar to hack that we
      had in Rococo/Wococo

      also cc @joepetrowski
      
       as the main "client" of this bridge
      
      ---
      
      A couple words on how this bridge is different from the Rococo <>
      Westend bridge:
      - it is a bridge with a chain that uses GRANDPA finality, not the
      parachain finality (hence the tests needs to be changed);
      - it is a fee-free bridge. So
      `AllowExplicitUnpaidExecutionFrom<Equals<SiblingPeople>>` + we are not
      paying any rewards to relayers (apart from compensating transaction
      costs).

      [testnet] BridgeHubRococo nits (#1972) · e0620fd9
      Branislav Kontur authored
      This PR does not introduce any functional changes to the existing code,
      it merely addresses several minor refactors:
      - Moving bridging pallets to separate files.
      - Improving the readability and naming of weight files for bridging
      pallets and bridging pallet instances.
      
      The reason for this refactor is to facilitate easier plugin integration
      for the upcoming bridge between Rococo and Westend.
