Persistence Core-1 v11 Uluru Upgrade

This proposal is to do a software upgrade to the v11.8.1 software tag of the Persistence codebase at 15860600 block height. Block times have high variance, so please monitor the chain for precise time.

“Uluru” is the famous mountain in central Australia, aka ‘Ayers Rock’. It is considered to be the mountain of the native people.

Scope of the upgrade

1. Add the LiquidStake module on the chain, responsible for issuing stkXPRT.
2. Enable the Rate Sync module on the chain to facilitate integrations for stkAssets.
3. Update the LiquidStakeIBC module with improved automatic updates of the security bounds for the c-value.
4. Enable the Timeweave integration.
