Implements approval voting to use as a `NposSolver` #13367

gpestana · 2023-02-12T21:04:48Z

Implements an approval voting election scheme where each voter backs a limited set of candidates, without requiring splitting the stake among the selected candidates.

ahh interesting, I didn't recall that setup_inputs calculates approval stakes. Does it too much other stuff too? then we should perhaps extract the approval stake calculation to optimize.

We get a few things from fn setup_inputs:

Build a Vec of Rc<Ref<Candidates>> from a vec of candidate account IDs. Using pointers here helps to optimise the the subsequent computation;

Removes duplicate vote edges, if existent.

Calculate approval state per candidate;

I think it won't be easy to optimise this further for the approval voting case.

Once the two outstanding comments above are ack'ed/addressed, I will merge this PR into #12588 and take it from there.
