Starcoin v1.12.6 is released, supports custom Gas payment tokens, and optimizes the tool chain

update overview

Starcoin released version v1.12.6. This version mainly adds the use of multiple currencies to pay Gas fees when sending transactions, upgrades the standard library from v11 to v12, upgrades the rust toolchain, and optimizes the development experience.

Scenario: Use other tokens to pay Gas fees

Assuming that at this time, a new token DummyToken is registered on the 0x1 address, then we can use this type of token to pay the gas fee for the transaction, as follows:

account transfer --blocking -r 0x1 -v 1 --gas-token 0x1::DummyToken::DummyToken
