Proto: replace max_slashing_period with denunciation_period and slashing_delay

Depends on !13612 (merged)

Follow-up issue: #7657

What

Replace the max_slashing_period protocol constant with two (currently equal) constants denunciation_delay and slashing_delay. Also introduce a pseudo-constant and helper functions to factorize some uses of this constant.

Why

Because from discussions and threads I have seen on past MRs, we are often confused by max_slashing_period = 2 meaning that the actual period to denounce a given misbehaviour is actually >= 1 cycle and < 2 cycles. So the new constants have a value of 1, their meaning is documented to explain what this means, and everything is updated accordingly.
