Derive transparent (t-addr) keys from the HD seed and add BIP39 mnemonic seed
phrases that are byte-for-byte compatible with SilentDragonXLite, so the same
24 words recover the same shielded and transparent addresses in either wallet.
HD transparent keys:
- Derive t-keys from the seed at m/44'/coin'/0'/0/i (were random CKeys).
- CHDChain gains a version-gated transparent counter; existing wallets load
unchanged. GenerateNewKey routes through DeriveNewChildKey when enabled
(-hdtransparent, default on).
- Restore from a seed hex via -hdseed with gap-limit pre-derivation; birthday
pinned to genesis so the rescan is not clipped.
BIP39 seed phrases:
- Wire the vendored trezor BIP39 lib (src/crypto/bip39) into the build, fix its
BIP39_WORDS guard, and disable the insecure mnemonic cache.
- Match SDXLite exactly: English wordlist, empty passphrase, PBKDF2 64-byte
seed, coin type 141, ZIP-32 m/32'/141'/i' and BIP44 m/44'/141'/0'/0/i. Store
the 32-byte entropy and expand to the 64-byte seed on demand.
- Restore via -mnemonic, create via -usemnemonic, reveal via z_exportmnemonic.
Verified by gtests including a known-answer BIP39 seed vector and z/t address
derivation checks (src/gtest/test_hdtransparent.cpp, test_mnemonic_compat.cpp).

These NU's are always active for Hush Arrakis Chains so this code only serves
to slow down all operations by constantly being checked. So we disable them
which will speed up syncing, mining and creating transactions.
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.
This code will be "experimental" forever, only supports Sprout, and
is a piece of shit. Deleting with fire.
Sapling viewing keys are the replacement, which already exist.
Split out methods to every module, apart from 'help' and 'stop' which
are implemented in rpcserver.cpp itself.
- This makes it easier to add or remove RPC commands - no longer everything that includes
rpcserver.h has to be rebuilt when there's a change there.
- Cleans up `rpc/server.h` by getting rid of the huge cluttered list of function definitions.
- Removes most of the bitcoin-specific code from rpcserver.cpp and .h.
Continues #7307 for the non-wallet.
libzcash::PaymentAddress has been renamed to libzcash::SproutPaymentAddress,
and a new typedef boost::variant is now libzcash::PaymentAddress. Similarly
for ViewingKey and SpendingKey.
A new class InvalidEncoding is introduced as the default boost::variant
option for each address and key type; it is used during decoding instead
of boost::optional.
All address and key storage functions in the wallet have been modified to
refer specifically to the Sprout types, as they are used very precisely.
In most other cases, the more general type is leveraged as much as possible,
and we convert to the Sprout type when necessary. This will be subsequently
wrapped in, or replaced with, context-specific functions once Sapling
types are implemented.
This patch removes the need for the intermediary Base58 type
CZCPaymentAddress, by providing {Encode,Decode}PaymentAddress
functions that directly operate on the conversion between strings
and libzcash::PaymentAddress.
