Documenting parameters

[nylira]

Summary

Could we add a page to the documentation that shows all of the current parameters of the Cosmos Hub?

Problem Definition

It's unclear to the community how long the unbonding period is, the exact percent slashed for validator double-signing, the amount slashed over time for validators that go offline, things like that. Can we document this? If it's in the docs it'll show up on https://hub.cosmos.network.

Proposal

Document the relevant parameters of the Cosmos Hub that would otherwise require querying endpoints.

The params themselves are already documented in the SDK (e.g. here).

Now the actual specific parameters of the Hub are another story. I don't see the benefit of having these actual values documented as they're dynamic -- they can change live on-chain. This would require us to constantly keep an eye on this doc and keep it up to date (we already have trouble doing this).

All the parameters are queryable by a module's /params REST endpoint. IMHO, params should ideally be exposed on most, if not all, block explorers.
