IGovernanceSettings#

Interface for the GovernanceSettings that hold the Flare governance address and its timelock.

All governance calls are delayed by the timelock specified in this contract.

NOTE: This contract enables updating the governance address and timelock only by hard-forking the network, meaning only by updating validator code.
