doc/release-process.md requires PROTOCOL_VERSION to increase by 1 for any release
carrying a consensus change. This one does: 6d282db21 stops BLOCK_VALID_CONTEXT
overwriting the block validity level, 267e6f7ad drops the dead CBOPRET price
validation from the coinbase check, and pow.cpp is 157 lines lighter. The value
has not moved since 85c8d7f7d in March.
MIN_PEER_PROTO_VERSION stays at 2000000. It currently equals PROTOCOL_VERSION, so
raising it in step would disconnect every peer still announcing 2000000 -- which is
every user, because no DragonX release has ever been installable: the wallet's
updater pins an ed25519 key and sets kDaemonRequireSignature = true, and no release
has ever shipped a .sig. Bumping only the advertised version lets 1.3.0 nodes be
identified on the wire without partitioning the network on release day.

Minimal rebrand (see compliant-rebrand branch for full rebrand):
- Rename binaries: hushd/hush-cli/hush-tx → dragonxd/dragonx-cli/dragonx-tx
- Default to DRAGONX chain params without -ac_* flags (randomx, blocktime=36, private=1)
- Update configure.ac: AC_INIT([DragonX],[1.0.0])
- Update client version string and user-agent to /DragonX:1.0.0/
- Add chainparams.cpp with DRAGONX network parameters
- Update build.sh, miner.cpp, pow.cpp for DragonX
- Add bootstrap-dragonx.sh utility script
- Update .gitignore for release directory
Share single RandomX dataset across all mining threads:
- Add RandomXDatasetManager with readers-writer lock, reducing RAM from
~2GB per thread to ~2GB total plus ~2MB per thread for the VM scratchpad
- Add LogProcessMemory() diagnostic helper for Linux and Windows
Hush and DragonX do not have the same requirements for which nodes they
should talk to because they don't necessarily have consensus changes at
the same time. For instance, 3.10.0 was a consensus change for Hush but
not DragonX. This commit changes things so that Hush nodes will no
longer talk to old nodes that are not consensus compatible but leaves
things the same for DragonX mainnet, which has never had a consensus
change.
Any projects which want to use Hush code from now on will need to be licensed as
GPLv3 or we will send the lawyers: https://www.softwarefreedom.org/
Notably, Komodo (KMD) is licensed as GPLv2 and is no longer compatible to receive
code changes, without causing legal issues. MIT projects, such as Zcash, also cannot pull
in changes from the Hush Full Node without permission from The Hush Developers,
which may in some circumstances grant an MIT license on a case-by-case basis.
Lets nodes advertise that they offer bloom filter support explicitly.
The protocol version bump allows SPV nodes to assume that NODE_BLOOM is
set if NODE_NETWORK is set for pre-170004 nodes.
Also adds an option to turn bloom filter support off for nodes which
advertise a version number >= 170004. Nodes attempting to use bloom
filters on such protocol versions are banned, and a later upgade
should drop nodes of an older version which attempt to use bloom
filters.
Much code stolen from Peter Todd.
