New mempool information RPC calls

Fee filtering of invs (BIP 133)

The optional new p2p message "feefilter" is implemented and the protocol

a node will not send invs for any transactions which do not meet the filter

Wallet dumps (created using the `dumpwallet` RPC) will contain the deterministic

associated funds, but this is not yet implemented.
HD key generation for new wallets can be disabled by `-usehd=0`. Keep in
mind that this flag only has affect on newly created wallets.
You can't disable HD key generation once you have created a HD wallet.

32-bit and 64-bit platforms, and the txids were missing in the hashed data. This has been
fixed, but this means that the output will be different than from previous versions.
