Under some circumstances it is possible for there to be a significant,
discontinuous jump in a node's clock value. On mining nodes, this can
result in block templates which are no longer valid due to time-based
nLockTime constraints. UpdateTime() is modified so that it will never
decrease a block's nLockTime, thereby preventing such invalidations.
I'm writing some wallet regression tests using -regtest mode, and
need to generate an initial multi-hundred-block chain. Repeatedly
calling setgenerate to generate one block is slow and doesn't
work properly, because block creation happens asynchronously.
This adds two features to setgenerate in -regtest mode:
1) Instead of being interpreted as number of threads to start, the
third argument is the number of blocks to generate.
2) setgenerate will not return until the block creation threads
have created the requested number of blocks.
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
