this commit updates the protocol parameters for the mithril protocol …

…demonstration. the parameters modified are the security parameter `m`, the quorum parameter `k`, `phi_f`, the number of parties `nparties`, and the number of messages to be signed `nmessages`. these parameters are now set to the default values of 200, 5, 0.2, 5, and 1 respectively.

the changes can be seen in the diff, with lines 9-63 in `main.rs` being updated to adjust the parameters. the new parameters are set with the `clap` macro, and are assigned to the `config` struct. the `config` struct is then used to initialize the `demonstrator` object in `main()` and can be seen in the updated code.
