Support ccc PublicKey prefix of other fork chains

[fanyinghao]

Other fork chain would change publickey prefix, so it's better to enable the customize the defined in https://github.com/eoscanada/eos-go/blob/master/ecc/pubkey.go#L17

@fanyinghao the PublicKeyPrefixCompat is a just a tag for public key, in https://github.com/codexnetwork/codexio-go which is a fork of eos-go for codex.io, i change the PublicKeyPrefixCompat to a value to make it can be customize because codex.io can customize main names in chain, but i think it is not a good way, for most times, just replace the prefix compat to EOS is a more flexible way.

Interesting. Will need to think about this, going from const PublicKeyPrefixCompat to var PublicKeyPrefixCompat so you could update the prefix are runtime.

[fanyinghao]

@maoueh Agreed. A variable definition is reasonable.

[fanyinghao]

Any update?

Pushed the changes 2 days ago on master branch.

The master branch contains some breaking changes not yet fully documented. The changes are that we added a context.Context parameter to all calls that could be cancelled throughout their operation lifetime.

That is all API calls as well as some signing functions and more.

You can check this commit eoscanada/eosc@76d29d2 on eosc project that updated our EOSIO CLI toolkit to latest version of eos-go for how to perform the update until we release completely an updated version (in the upcoming weeks, definitely not in the upcoming 2 for now however, we have another big project we are working on).

This is resolved IMO, hence the closed issue.
