Subject: [PATCH] chore: remove dead remote-signer feature from
 arc-node-execution
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The remote-signer feature gated protox/tonic-build as optional
build-dependencies, but crates/node has no build.rs to invoke either
of them, and nothing in crates/node/src references the feature.
arc-node-execution (the Execution Layer) has no dependency on
arc-remote-signer either, directly or transitively — remote signing
is a consensus-layer concern this crate has no reason to touch.

Removes the now-unused protox/tonic-build build-dependencies and the
remote-signer entry from integration's feature list. No other crate
in the workspace with build-dependencies has this issue; each has its
own build.rs that genuinely consumes them.

Fixes #253
