The code in the Tendermint repository makes heavy use of import aliasing.
This is made necessary by our extensive reuse of common base package names, and
by repetition of similar names across different subdirectories.
Unfortunately we have not been very consistent about which packages we alias in
various circumstances, and the aliases we use vary. In the spirit of the advice
in the style guide and https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#imports,
his change makes an effort to clean up and normalize import aliasing.
This change makes no API or behavioral changes. It is a pure cleanup intended
o help make the code more readable to developers (including myself) trying to
understand what is being imported where.
Only unexported names have been modified, and the changes were generated and
applied mechanically with gofmt -r and comby, respecting the lexical and
syntactic rules of Go. Even so, I did not fix every inconsistency. Where the
changes would be too disruptive, I left it alone.
The principles I followed in this cleanup are:
- Remove aliases that restate the package name.
- Remove aliases where the base package name is unambiguous.
- Move overly-terse abbreviations from the import to the usage site.
- Fix lexical issues (remove underscores, remove capitalization).
- Fix import groupings to more closely match the style guide.
- Group blank (side-effecting) imports and ensure they are commented.
- Add aliases to multiple imports with the same base package name.
* rpc: Strip down the base RPC client interface.
Prior to this change, the RPC client interface requires implementing the entire
Service interface, but most of the methods of Service are not needed by the
concrete clients. Dissociate the Client interface from the Service interface.
- Extract only those methods of Service that are necessary to make the existing
clients work.
- Update the clients to combine Start/Onstart and Stop/OnStop. This does not
change what the clients do to start or stop. Only the websocket clients make
use of this functionality anyway.
The websocket implementation uses some plumbing from the BaseService helper.
We should be able to excising that entirely, but the current interface
dependencies among the clients would require a much larger change, and one
that leaks into other (non-RPC) packages.
As a less-invasive intermediate step, preserve the existing client behaviour
(and tests) by extracting the necessary subset of the BaseService
functionality to an analogous RunState helper for clients. I plan to obsolete
that type in a future PR, but for now this makes a useful waypoint.

## Description
Internalize some libs. This reduces the amount ot public API tendermint is supporting. The moved libraries are mainly ones that are used within Tendermint-core.
also
- replace `MaxReconnectAttempts`, `ReadWait`, `WriteWait` and `PingPeriod` options with `WSOptions` in `WSClient` (rpc/jsonrpc/client/ws_client.go).
- set default write wait to 10s for `WSClient`(rpc/jsonrpc/client/ws_client.go)
- unexpose `WSEvents`(rpc/client/http.go)
Closes#6162
