Summary
To support gordian, we need an easy interface we can plug another consensus client into. On start of an application, ICT figures out which you are using (cometbft or gordian), then uses the proper Consensus Client based on that finding. As a user no extra configuration is required to use gordian, just plug in the docker image.
Context
This builds off a similar approach used in cosmos/relayer#1490 for the relayer w/ CometBFT (Gordian: cosmos/relayer#1492)
This PR builds off other work here: #1205, and #1208.
