Enforce that coinbases must be protected
This PR forces miners to place their funds in the private value transfer system, making "transparent coins" opt-in for users, and increasing privacy for all participants on a systemic level.
Closes#101.
Signing pours with ed25519
This is an alternative to #964 which uses ed25519 instead of secp256k1, and avoids the separate hash for fitting the public key into the `h_sig` block. It's based on @defuse's work in that branch.
Closes#808.
All blocks before the first subsidy halving block, with the exception of
the genesis block, must contain an output which sends 20% of the block
subsidy value to a scriptPubKey `FOUNDERS_REWARD_SCRIPT`.
The main and test networks are configured to use parameters that are currently
low-memory but usable with the basic solver; they will be increased once the
solver is optimised. The regtest network is configured to have extremely low
memory usage for speed.
Note that Bitcoin's double-hasher is used for the difficulty check. This does
not match the paper, but is simpler than changing the block header
serialization. Single hashing is kept for the EquiHash solver because there is
no requirement on execution time there, only on memory usage.
Some specifics on consensus changes:
* Transactions must be anchored to a real anchor in the chain.
* Anchors are pushed and popped during ConnectBlock/DisconnectBlock as appropriate.
* DisconnectTip triggers evictions, under some circumstances, of transactions in the
mempool which are anchored to roots that are no longer valid.
* Commitments append to the tree at the current best root during ConnectBlock.
* PourTxs cannot appear in coinbase transactions.
* Transactions can only contain empty vin/vouts if they contain a PourTx.
* PourTx public values must be well-formed (not negative or too large).
* Transactions cannot have the same serial twice throughout all PourTxs.
Previously, the undo weren't being flushed during a reindex because
fKnown was set to true in FindBlockPos. That is the correct behaviour
for block files as they aren't being touched, but undo files are
touched.
This changes the behaviour to always flush when switching to a new file
(even for block files, though that isn't really necessary).

The lock-time code currently uses CBlock::nTime as the cutoff point for time based locked transactions. This has the unfortunate outcome of creating a perverse incentive for miners to lie about the time of a block in order to collect more fees by including transactions that by wall clock determination have not yet matured. By using CBlockIndex::GetMedianTimePast from the prior block instead, the self-interested miner no longer gains from generating blocks with fraudulent timestamps. Users can compensate for this change by simply adding an hour (3600 seconds) to their time-based lock times.
If enforced, this would be a soft-fork change. This commit only adds the functionality on an unexecuted code path, without changing the behaviour of Bitcoin Core.

GetTransaction needs to lock cs_main until ReadBlockFromDisk completes, the data inside CBlockIndex's can change since pruning. This lock was held by all calls to GetTransaction except rest_tx.
To bridge the time until a dynamic method for determining this fee is
merged.
This is especially aimed at the stable releases (0.10, 0.11) because
full mempool limiting, as will be in 0.12, is too invasive and risky to
backport.
Github-Pull: #6793
Rebased-From: 28e3249e53b8ef7516636df0f1406466a513095d 4e2efb3c5fde4b1e332cc032e3dc4082ec4e3cac
The main effect is to exit processing for recently-rejected hashes,
in case they are pushed to us without prior advertisement. This
behavior was seen in the wild.
An additional effect is to do early checks for mempool or mapOrphan
existence. No logging or nDoS tracking is needed for failures of
these checks.
This avoids that premature return in the condition that a new chain is initialized
results in NULL pointer errors due to recentReject not being constructed.
Also add assertions where it is used.

Nodes can have divergent policies on which transactions they will accept
and relay. This can cause you to repeatedly request and reject the same
tx after its inved to you from various peers which have accepted it.
Here we add rolling bloom filter to keep track of such rejections,
clearing the filter every time the chain tip changes.
Credit goes to Alex Morcos, who created the patch that this code is
based on.
Original code by Peter Todd. Refactored to not construct the
filter at startup time by Pieter Wuille.
(cherry picked from commit 0847d9cb5fcd2fdd5a21bde699944d966cf5add9)
While CBloomFilter is usually used with an explicitly set nTweak,
CRollingBloomFilter is only used internally. Requiring every caller to
set nTweak is error-prone and redundant; better to have the class handle
that for you with a high-quality randomness source.
Additionally when clearing the filter it makes sense to change nTweak as
well to recover from a bad setting, e.g. due to insufficient randomness
at initialization, so the clear() method is replaced by a reset() method
that sets a new, random, nTweak value.
