William Banfield 2f75899320 ADR-74: Migrate Timeout Parameters to Consensus Parameters (#7503) 
related to: #7274 and #7275 

Still somewhat uncertain on two things that I'd appreciate more feedback on:
1. The optional temporary local overrides. Perhaps this is superfluous and we can simply make the transition without the override?
2. If this set of parameters seems to be large enough to allow application developers to create the chains they want but not so large as to be needlessly complex.

Architecture Decision Records (ADR)

This is a location to record all high-level architecture decisions in the tendermint project.

You can read more about the ADR concept in this blog post.

An ADR should provide:

  • Context on the relevant goals and the current state
  • Proposed changes to achieve the goals
  • Summary of pros and cons
  • References
  • Changelog

Note the distinction between an ADR and a spec. The ADR provides the context, intuition, reasoning, and justification for a change in architecture, or for the architecture of something new. The spec is much more compressed and streamlined summary of everything as it stands today.

If recorded decisions turned out to be lacking, convene a discussion, record the new decisions here, and then modify the code to match.

Note the context/background should be written in the present tense.
