Prior to this commit pindexRescan was initialized to a chainActive.Tip().
However, the value of pindexRescan set at time of initialization was never
read before pindexRescan was being set to either chainActive.Genesis()
(case 1), FindForkInGlobalIndex(chainActive, locator) (case 2) or
chainActive.Genesis() (case 3). Thus, the initialization was redundant.
This commit a.) removes the redundant initialization and b.) simplifies
this logic so that pindexRescan is initialized to chainActive.Genesis()
(case 1 and 3), and set to FindForkInGlobalIndex(chainActive, locator)
(case 2) as needed.

Use of `sprintf` is seen as a red flag as many of its uses are insecure.
OpenBSD warns about it while compiling, and some modern platforms, e.g.
[cloudlibc from cloudabi](https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudlibc) don't
even provide it anymore.
Although our uses of these functions are secure, it can't hurt to
replace them anyway. There are only 3 occurences left, all in the
tests.
Send payments during the test from a different node than the node generating
keys to be imported, so the spending node doesn't create transactions that
inadvertently involve (spend funds from) the imported keys.
Fixes#9826
This commit fixes the module-level docstrings for the tests and helper
modules in qa. Many of these tests were uncommented previously - this
commit ensures that every test case has at least a minimum level of
commenting.
