Also introduce UniValueType
UniValueType is a wrapper for UniValue::VType which allows setting
a typeAny flag. This flag indicates the type does not matter.

- Link pull-tester/rpc-tests.py to the build dir
- Add the build-dir's config to the python path so that tests can find it
- The tests themselves are in srcdir
- Clean up __pycache__ in 'make clean'
Previously these functions would infinitely loop if sync failed;
now they have a default timeout of 60 seconds, after which an
AssertionError is raised.
sync_blocks() has also been improved and now compares the tip
hash of each node, rather than just using block count.
In my ever-growing list of test failures, I was seeing this one intermittently.

```
After digging into the test, I found that the code is waiting 10 seconds for blk00000.dat to be deleted, and then throwing this failure if it still exists after 10 seconds.
I increased this amount, had the script print the actual time taken, and ran the test a few more times. The time taken ranged between 8 to 12 seconds. So, I feel that this timeout is too short.
After changing the timeout to 30 seconds, the test passes consistently.

It looks like travis is using the `travis.yml` from the branch, but runs
the test script from the branch merged into master. This causes
pull requests created before the QA tests python 3 transition to fail.
This temporarily reverts fa05e22e91
(#7851). It can be restored when this is no longer an issue.
We can't change "softforks", but it seems far more logical to use tags
in an object rather than using an "id" field in an array.
For example, to get the csv status before, you need to iterate the
array to find the entry with 'id' field equal to "csv":
jq '.bip9_softforks | map(select(.id == "csv"))[] | .status'
Now:
jq '.bip9_softforks.csv.status'
There is no issue with fork names being incompatible with JSON tags,
since we're selecting them ourselves.

Check the Content-Type header that is returned from the RPC server. Only
if it is `application/json` the data is supposed to be parsed as JSON.
This gives better reporting if the HTTP server happens to return an error that is
not JSON-formatted, which is the case if it happens at a lower level
before JSON-RPC kicks in.
Before: `Unexpected exception caught during testing: No JSON object could be decoded`
After: `JSONRPC error: non-JSON HTTP response with '403 Forbidden' from server`
