An orphan whos parents were rejected is never going to connect, so there
is little utility in keeping it.
Orphans also helpfully tell us what we're missing, so go ahead and treat
it as INVed.
This prevents higher order orphans and other junk from
holding positions in the orphan map. Parents delayed
twenty minutes are more are unlikely to ever arrive.
The freed space will improve the orphan matching success rate for
other transactions.

The partition checker was producing huge number of false-positives
and was disabled in 0.12.1 on the understanding it would either be
fixed in 0.13 or removed entirely from master if not.
* Use CNode::addeName to track whether a connection to a name is already open
* A new connection to a previously-connected by-name addednode is only opened when
the previous one closes (even if the name starts resolving to something else)
* At most one connection is opened per addednode (even if the name resolves to multiple)
* Unify the code between ThreadOpenAddedNodeConnections and getaddednodeinfo
* Information about open connections is always returned, and the dns argument becomes a dummy
* An IP address and inbound/outbound is only reported for the (at most 1) open connection
In the Receive 'Tab' of the QT wallet, when 'Show'ing a previously requested payment, add a label underneath the QR Code showing the bitcoin address where the funds will go to.
This way the user can be sure that the QR code scanner app the user using is reading the correct bitcoin address, preventing funds to be stolen.

always grow to its maximum size.
This does not go so far as to attempt to connect orphans made
connectable by a new block.
Keeping the orphan map less full helps improve the reliability
of relaying chains of transactions.
Putting the build date in the executable is a practice that has no place
in these days, now that deterministic building is increasingly common.
Continues #7732 which did this for the GUI.
Add error and range-checking parsers for unsigned 32 and 64 bit numbers.
The 32-bit variant is required for parsing sequence numbers from the
command line in `bitcoin-tx` (see #8164 for discussion). I've thrown in
the 64-bit variant as a bonus, as I'm sure it will be needed at some
point.
Also adds tests, and updates `developer-notes.md`.
Also introduce UniValueType
UniValueType is a wrapper for UniValue::VType which allows setting
a typeAny flag. This flag indicates the type does not matter.

We send a newly-accepted peer a 1000-entry addr message, and then only use
vAddrToSend for small messages. Deallocate vAddrToSend after it's been used for
the big message to save about 40 kB per connected inbound peer.
