Proposal: Add rETH market

Summary

I propose to add a Rocket Pool ETH (rETH) market to the Strike Protocol.

Motivation

The listing of wstETH has been a great success as it has become our second-largest market within a short period of time. Evidently, there is a lot of utility in using liquid-staked ether as collateral instead of leaving it unproductive in a wallet.
However, Lido is not the only liquid staking provider. Its biggest competitor is Rocket Pool with its rETH token with a market cap of $1.4 billion. It has significant adoption in DeFi, with $130 million rETH supplied to Aave v3 alone.
As a smaller protocol, we cannot compete with lending protocols like Aave on liquidity. Therefore, we have to compete on the variety of assets we offer for borrowing and lending. The first step toward that is to catch up and list the most popular assets we have not listed yet, starting with rETH.

rETH market specifications

The collateral factor should be similar but smaller than that of wstETH, due to its lower liquidity.
The interest rate model should be the same as that of wstETH.
