Networking Adapters

Networking adapters are processes on the ReplicaOS that run next to the main replica process and can issue outgoing calls to the internet. The intent of an adapter is to serve as proxy which sanitises data received externally. They are used by Bitcoin integration and HTTPS outcalls features.
The main replica process uses gRPC for communicating with the co-located adapters via Unix domain sockets.
