✨ Set balance to u128 instead of config type on pallet_funding

[JuaniRios]

What?

• Remove the Balance config type, and replace it for u128

Why?

• Having to access our fundamental balance type through trait interfaces was making our code unnecessarily bloated. The only reason to have a generic balance type is if our pallet is written to be used in many other blockchains, which is not the case.
• Now we can use directly u128, instead of having to convert with into()
• We were already assuming 99% that it was u128 since it had to implement From

How?

• Replace BalanceOf with Balance
• Delete all unnecessary conversion
• Remove the generic Balance types from the pallet funding types

Testing?

Normal tests

Anything Else?

This will now allow us to use abs_diff for the vesting api

I see the simplification this brings in terms of syntax, but I would wait for feedback from @vstam1 before merging this
