For the per confirmation number tracking of data, introduce a scale factor so that in the longer horizones confirmations are bucketed together at a resolution of the scale. (instead of 1008 individual data points for each fee bucket, have 42 data points each covering 24 different confirmation values.. (1-24), (25-48), etc.. )
Store in fee estimate file the block span for which we were tracking estimates, so we know what targets we can successfully evaluate with the data in the file. When restarting use either this historical block span to set valid range of targets until our current span of tracking estimates is just as long.
Track the first time we seen txs in a block that we have been tracking in our mempool. Used to evaluate validity of fee estimates for different targets.
Change the logic of estimateSmartFee to check a 60% threshold at half the target, a 85% threshold at the target and a 95% threshold at double the target. Always check the shortest time horizon possible and ensure that estimates are monotonically decreasing. Add a conservative mode, which makes sure that the 95% threshold is also met at longer time horizons as well.
Track information the ranges of fee rates that were used to calculate the fee estimates (the last range of fee rates in which the data points met the threshold and the first to fail) and provide an RPC call to return this information.
Instead of stopping if it encounters a "sufficient" number of transactions which don't meet the threshold for being confirmed within the target, it keeps looking to add more transactions to see if there is a temporary blip in the data. This allows a smaller number of required data points.
Checks memory before and after a transaction that requires a private key.
Each time, 32 bytes of memory for a private key should be used.
Tested in wallet.py instead of its own file to save testing time.

vToFetch is never used after declaration. When checked if not empty,
evaluation is always false. Best case scenario this is optimized by the
compiler, worst case it wastes cpu cycles. It should be removed either
way.
