Description

Issue to be solved

Document the CLI flags relevant for Access nodes, and include explanations of the different systems they configure, side effects and best practices.

The complete list of Access specific flags are here:
https://github.com/onflow/flow-go/blob/5ba2b2748427eb2b25535872fae41e61e2dfbe95/cmd/access/node_builder/access_node_builder.go#L973

The complete list of share flags are here:
https://github.com/onflow/flow-go/blob/master/cmd/scaffold.go#L147

Ideally, we would have this for all nodes, but ANs are the most likely to have new operators coming online and have the largest number of options.

Research direction

Start with the Access-specific flags in cmd/access/node_builder/access_node_builder.go around line 973 and the shared flags in cmd/scaffold.go around line 147. Document every relevant flag, including the systems it configures, side effects, and best practices; completion means the Access node operator guidance covers both flag lists.
