Most of the algorithms generalize with almost no change to the code to a situation where other nodes, that are not part of the consensus group itself, want to receive the output, too. If all Target::All messages are sent to nodes even if they are not in all_uids, then those nodes will be able to receive and verify the output, too.

This saves an additional type of messages and round of signatures in all use-cases where nodes other than the consensus nodes need to learn about the outcome.

This allows nodes to join the network without sending any messages
themselves. They can't give any input and just observe the outcome.

Closes #81
