Code Review

This pull request introduces CIP-44, a proposal to adjust validator commission bounds by increasing the maximum to 60% and the minimum to 20%. The new CIP document is well-structured, clear, and provides sufficient detail regarding the motivation, specification, and implications of the change. I have one suggestion to improve the document's completeness.
