about distributed-config.json

[terracottahaniwa]

This is a summary from DISCORD.

Configuration of remote workers is now done using distributed-config.json in the root of this extension directory instead of from command-line arguments.

if just empty json, throw ERROR config is corrupt or invalid JSON, unable to load

JSON example is as like as follow

{
   "workers": [
      {
         "master": {
            "avg_ipm": 18.7014339699366,

If possible, use the UI to configure and add workers instead of editing the configuration file manually. Eventually I should have an actual json schema posted for it so it's less of an issue. I'll keep this pinned for now.
