Rewrite the BIP66 functional tests to reflect height-based activation,
and move it out of the extended test suite.
Remove the unnecessary bipdersig.py test
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.
script.py is modified from the code in python-bitcoinlib, and provides tools
for manipulating and creating CScript objects.
bignum.py is a dependency for script.py
script_test.py is an example test that uses the script tools for running a test
that compares the behavior of two nodes, in a comptool- style test, for each of
the test cases in the bitcoin unit test script files, script_valid.json and
script_invalid.json. (This test is very slow to run, but is a proof of concept
for how we can write tests to compare consensus-critical behavior between
different versions of bitcoind.)
bipdersig-p2p.py is another example test in the comptool framework, which tests
deployment of BIP DERSIG for a single node. It uses the script.py tools for
manipulating signatures to be non-DER compliant.
