/// Customizable node add-on types.
///
/// This trait defines the interface for extending a node with additional functionality beyond
/// the core [`FullNodeComponents`]. It provides a way to launch supplementary services such as
/// RPC servers, monitoring, external integrations, or any custom functionality that builds on
/// top of the core node components.
///
/// ## Purpose
///
/// The `NodeAddOns` trait serves as an extension point in the node builder architecture,
/// allowing developers to:
/// - Define custom services that run alongside the main node
/// - Access all node components and configuration during initialization
/// - Return a handle for managing the launched services (e.g. handle to rpc server)
///
/// ## How it fits into `NodeBuilder`
///
/// In the node builder pattern, add-ons are the final layer that gets applied after all core
/// components are configured and started. The builder flow typically follows:
///
/// 1. Configure [`NodeTypes`] (chain spec, database types, etc.)
/// 2. Build [`FullNodeComponents`] (consensus, networking, transaction pool, etc.)
/// 3. Launch [`NodeAddOns`] with access to all components via [`AddOnsContext`]
///
/// ## Primary Use Case
///
/// The primary use of this trait is to launch RPC servers that provide external API access to
/// the node. For Ethereum nodes, this typically includes two main servers: the regular RPC
/// server (HTTP/WS/IPC) that handles user requests and the authenticated Engine API server
/// that communicates with the consensus layer. The returned handle contains the necessary
/// endpoints and control mechanisms for these servers, allowing the node to serve JSON-RPC
/// requests and participate in consensus. While RPC is the main use case, the trait is
/// intentionally flexible to support other kinds of add-ons such as monitoring, indexing, or
/// custom protocol extensions.
///
/// ## Context Access
///
/// The [`AddOnsContext`] provides access to:
/// - All node components via the `node` field
/// - Node configuration
/// - Engine API handles for consensus layer communication
/// - JWT secrets for authenticated endpoints
///
/// This ensures add-ons can integrate deeply with the node while maintaining clean separation
/// of concerns.
pub trait NodeAddOns<N: FullNodeComponents>: Send {
    /// Handle to add-ons.
    ///
    /// This type is returned by [`launch_add_ons`](Self::launch_add_ons) and represents a
    /// handle to the launched services. It must be `Clone` to allow multiple components to
    /// hold references and should provide methods to interact with the running services.
    ///
    /// For RPC add-ons, this typically includes:
    /// - Server handles to access local addresses and shutdown methods
    /// - RPC module registry for runtime inspection of available methods
    /// - Configured middleware and transport-specific settings
    /// - For Engine API implementations, this also includes handles for consensus layer
    ///   communication
    type Handle: Send + Sync + Clone;

    /// Configures and launches the add-ons.
    ///
    /// This method is called once during node startup after all core components are initialized.
    /// It receives an [`AddOnsContext`] that provides access to:
    ///
    /// - The fully configured node with all its components
    /// - Node configuration for reading settings
    /// - Engine API handles for consensus layer communication
    /// - JWT secrets for setting up authenticated endpoints (if any).
    ///
    /// The implementation should:
    /// 1. Use the context to configure the add-on services
    /// 2. Launch any background tasks using the node's task executor
    /// 3. Return a handle that allows interaction with the launched services
    ///
    /// # Errors
    ///
    /// This method may fail if the add-ons cannot be properly configured or launched,
    /// for example due to port binding issues or invalid configuration.
