Identification of the Coordinator Role

[baumstern]

We need clarity on the coordinator's role. There's been overlap, and we need to set things straight.

Tasks:

1. Define Coordinator Role: * List main tasks and responsibilities. * Identify challenges tied to these tasks.

2. Distinguish Responsibilities: * Separate core duties from secondary tasks.

Goal: Get a clear picture of the coordinator's role to guide our future work.

There's been overlap

What do you mean by this? Overlap with what, other MACI roles? Where has there been overlap, e.g. in our documentation?

@baumstern bumping this: some more info here would be appreciated

Check this for context: #417. Basically, tasks like proof generation, tally, and onchain proving are distinct and separate functions

Could this be closed by this: https://maci.pse.dev/docs/overview/workflow#roles ? We also have workstreams open for a coordinator service: proof service and deployer service
