Remove txIndex option, its move to Flowee Indexer
Also remove the GUI option for setting the amount
of "script validator threads". :D
Remove DBCash command line option too, equally obsolete.
Also write some new accessor methods on the baseclass.
The longer term idea is to make the server itself only use the uint160
raw version for bitcoin addresses.
For now move the encodings (between that uint160 and human-readable) to
the utils library.
Write a changesSincePruning integer which has the following effects;
after a restart;
* We will do a prune faster and/or more often for nodes that are not
running very long stretches of time.
* We will skip pruning files that don't need it.
Context; pruning of the UTXO is throwing away already spent outputs
that are still in our dirty files.
This adds lots of little things;
* Add GetTransaction API call
* I refactored the GetBlock API a little to reuse code.
* a new 'Version' API call for the hub
* API for the logging manager, so we can set a default
setup with just C++-APIs
* various (usability) fixes in the FloweeServiceApplication
* Binding to localhost attempts to bind to both IPv4 and v6
* Print the actual transaction hex from indexer-cli (which really
is just a testing app)
I added some docs to bind() that handlers there should call
accept().
Also made sure that when nobody accepts a connection it actually
gets disconnected instead of just being ignored.
The main goal of this is to make sure that network services
implementations don't reuse one bufferpool for all their remotes as that
can cause threading issues.
One bufferpool per remote is now made easy.
Make sure that a NetworkConnection object (which owns the callbacks)
doesn't return from its destructor until the already scheduled callbacks
in another thread have been completed.
This avoids shutdown scenarios where we execute in a deleted
object.
Move the creation of the ping message to the constructor (from the
connection-established method) so we are certain it gets done exactly
once.
Also avoid putting default (invalid) values in the hashmap.
Upgrade the code to check not just if the compiler supports, but
try the actual system too.
Also add a new cmake option 'reproductable_builds' which, when set
to true, will not include any optimized hashing algorithms.

This avoids an internal error from failing one block due
to a perceived missing input while the block may be fine
but other issues need looking at (for instance disk errors).
In extreme cases we might end up going over the bounds of the internal
buffers, as such myConnection.send() may now throw.
I also cleaned up the ping design and made it a bit more strict.
Last I increased the amount of incoming data I can receive in one go,
this will make throughput higher.
