feat: update cluster era references to Conway
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit updates all references from Babbage to Conway in the README.md
file. This includes instructions for preparing the testing environment,
starting and stopping the cluster instance, configuring test runs, and
running the development cluster. The changes ensure consistency with the
latest cluster era.

When using `CI_BYRON_CLUSTER`, it takes ~ 30 minutes for local cluster instance to get from Byron to Babbage. If it seems that tests are stuck, they are likely just waiting for local cluster instances to be fully started.

### Running development cluster
When running tests, the testing framework starts and stops cluster instances as needed. That is not ideal for test development, as starting a cluster instance can take up to several epochs (to get from Byron to Babbage). To keep the Cardano cluster running in between test runs, one needs to start it in 'development mode':

After the cluster starts, keys and configuration files are available in the `./dev_workdir/state-cluster0` directory. The pool-related files and keys are located in the `nodes` subdirectory, genesis keys in the `shelley` and `byron` subdirectories, and payment address with initial funds and related keys in the `byron` subdirectory. The local faucet address and related key files are stored in the `addrs_data` subdirectory.
