PDP SP guided setup in Curio

[rjan90]

Done Criteria

A curio guided-setup providing an interactive CLI workflow for deploying a PDP-compatible Storage Provider.

Why Important

A guided setup reduces onboarding friction for new PDP Ss by abstracting away manual configuration steps. This accelerates PDP adoption and aligns with the parent issue’s goal of seamless integration.

User/Customer

• Storage Providers (SPs) deploying PDP.

Notes

Example Command Flow:

curio guided-setup
Use the arrow keys to navigate: ↓ ↑ → ← 
? I want to:: 
    Migrate from existing Lotus-Miner
    Create a new miner
   ▸ Create a PDP SP

Then the Yugabyte info for Create a PDP SP:

? Enter the info to connect to your Yugabyte database installation (https://download.yugabyte.com/): 
    Host: 127.0.0.1
    Port: 5433
    Username: yugabyte
    Password: yugabyte
    Database: yugabyte
    ▸ Continue to connect and update schema.

Example of next step:

Initializing a new PDP SP.
Use the arrow keys to navigate: ↓ ↑ → ← 
? Enter the info to create a new PDP SP

Not sure if we want to include setting up a PDP Service private key and service name at this level. My guess would be no.

If we could simply avoid the step of creating a miner actor which is totally tangential then this would be a big win for comprehensible setup. And if there was some way to get the initial config ready for PDP, park pieces, pdp enabled, enter domain name etc, it would really make everything smooth.

Will ask more about this in our next sync. Think I agree that it is probably best to leave that out.

Yeah, I think this is what I struggled with yesterday when trying to get things set up. Going through the create miner-actor, selecting sector size, etc, was a bit confusing when I was just trying to spin up only a PDP SP.
