Document changeable properties of node registry
100%
Description
Clarify documentation for node registry so that updates to the registry information are performed by the appropriate actors. Need to indicate which properties can be set by a MN, and which can only be set by a CN.

Note from Robert:
UpdateNodeCapabilities allows for a Membernode to update its own capabilities by providing its node structure to the CN.
There is a restriction of which fields may be updated by a MN.
Node.Synchronization.Schedule
Node.Services
Node.Health.NodeState
Node.SubjectList
Node.replicate
Node.synchronize
CoordinatingNodes maintain the other elements/attributes. Of interest to the conversation this morning, Node.Health.Ping is an element maintained by the CN by a background service (yet to be written). There was also the notion that another background service would run and gather status information to gather status information. But, since we are dropping that functionality from the membernode, then we should drop the element Node.Health.Status as well.
If a membernode needs to update is capabilities it can. We have a mechanism to do that. I also think that the ping service should 'synchronize' with the membernode capabilities as well, updating the above information if needed.
