Description

In the same way that external validators are supported, we need to add support to onboard/offboard external parachains.

  • Load external parachain list from a confimap that contains tuples: (parachain_name, parachain_rpc_endpoint)
  • Add support for using the external parachain rpc endpoint to retrieve parachain info, head state and wasm required for on/off board operations

Research direction

Start by locating the existing external-validator support, the configuration handling, and the on/offboard entry points. Trace how validator information is retrieved, then determine how the external parachain list and RPC endpoint should provide parachain info, head state, and WASM for both operations; done means both checklist items work for configured external parachains.
