As a Builder, I want to create a request from Solidity, via a smart contract call, so I don't need to run a frontend/backend or use the RN SDK

Problem

Today, It's impossible to create a request from Solidity. Creating a request requires a frontend or backend that uses the Request Network SDK.

Possible Solution

• Gelato Web3 Function that watches for an on-chain event and creates a request via the RN SDK on behalf of the user when it sees one.
  • Today, we support declarative payment delegates, but this feature may require request creation delegates. Unclear how that would work.
• Smart Wallet Relayer

Motivation

A hacker at ETHRome requested this feature.

This should still require signature from end-user.

A hacker participating in the Request Network End-of-Year Hackathon 2024 expressed interest in creating a request from a smart contract function call. They said they wanted to create and pay a request in a single blockchain transaction, using a single signature (today, it's two separate transactions and requires two signatures).
