/// Generate constants from the provided pallet's metadata.
///
/// The function creates a new module named `constants` under the pallet's module.
/// ```rust,ignore
/// pub mod PalletName {
///     pub mod constants {
///     ...
///     }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The constants are exposed via the `ConstantsApi` wrapper.
///
/// Although the constants are defined in the provided static metadata, the API
/// ensures that the constants are returned from the runtime metadata of the node.
/// This ensures that if the node's constants change value, we'll always see the latest values.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// - `type_gen` - [`scale_typegen::TypeGenerator`] that contains settings and all types from the runtime metadata.
/// - `pallet` - Pallet metadata from which the constants are generated.
/// - `crate_path` - The crate path under which the `subxt` crate is located, e.g. `::subxt` when using subxt as a dependency.
