v3.9.0-rc1

This release adds two new user-facing eosio actions—regpeerkey and delpeerkey—to support on-chain peer key management for block producers.

---

Actions

• regpeerkey
  Registers (or replaces) a public peer key for the calling block producer’s account_name.

  • Each account may hold only one key at a time; a new call overwrites the previous key.

• delpeerkey
  Removes the registered peer key for the calling account, freeing the associated RAM and preventing stale entries in nodeos memory.

---

What's Changed

• Add support for storing public keys on-chain that will be used to validate a network peer's identity.
