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`
Avoid an infinite loop in encoding, by ensuring EncodeDecimal
returns a string. round(Decimal) used to convert it to
float, but it no longer does in python 3.x. Strings are
supported since #6380, so just use that.
Replace the `bitcoin-cli -rpcwait` after spawning bitcoind
with our own loop that detects when bitcoind exits prematurely.
And if one node fails to start, stop the others.
This prevents a hang in such a case (see #7463).
Adds two RPC tests for the generatetoaddress RPC, one in the wallet, and one when the wallet is disabled.
The wallet RPC Test mines Bitcoin to another node's address and checks that that node has received the Bitcoin.
The RPC test without the wallet mines Bitcoin to an arbitrary address and checks that it works. It then mines to an arbitrary invalid address and checks that that fails.
This RPC test will test both the activation mechanism of the first versionbits soft fork as well as testing many code branches of the consensus logic for BIP's 68, 112, and 113.
