[FEAT] Change mentions and use of parity-ethereum to openethereum
Description
Change links and references in the docs to run an Ethereum node from parity to openethereum, and change these references in the code too.
Motivation
Currently, docs about running an Ethereum node states that you can use parity-ethereum, but the project is no longer maintained.
There's also lots of comments and bits mentioning this in the code.
Justification
parity-ethereum is no longer maintained since more than a year and has been moved to openethereum
parity-ethereum can still be subject to bugs and vulnerabilities, so we should encourage users running nodes to use the openethereum project instead of parity.
Additional Information
Hi @jakedamon , yes I can see the code still mentions Parity. However let me check with the team as to the best way forward for this, because OpenEthereum has now also been deprecated, so the original solution isn't valid! I'll get back to you
Hi @jakedamon , yes this is still a valid issue, but instead of OE, the docs & code comments etc should be changed to mention geth instead

I’d help, however I don’t have the necessary permissions; my training wheels must still be attached.
@smartcontractkit/core @smartcontractkit/foundations @cedric-cordenier — passing the baton over to you guys.
Devs, please do something, preferably sometime before @PatrickAlphaC retires.
