Implement RPC only baker

vbot requested to merge nomadic-labs/tezos:vbot@implement-rpc-only-baker into master

Context

This MR adds the possibility to launch the baker daemon without requiring local data. Operation filtering and block forging will be done using the ../preapply_block RPC instead of locally instantiating the protocol's context. This will result in slower block forging times but will reduce the baker's memory consumption.

See #5466 (closed)

Testing the MR

This is a semantically close equivalent of bake for which is heavily used in a lot of test scenarios.
