This introduces two command line flags (-addresstype and -changetype) which control
the type of addresses/outputs created by the GUI and RPCs. Certain RPCs allow
overriding these (`getnewaddress` and `getrawchangeaddress`). Supported types
are "legacy" (P2PKH and P2SH-multisig), "p2sh-segwit" (P2SH-P2WPKH and P2SH-P2WSH-multisig),
and "bech32" (P2WPKH and P2WSH-multisig).
A few utility functions are added to the wallet to construct different address type
and to add the necessary entries to the wallet file to be compatible with earlier
versions (see `CWallet::LearnRelatedScripts`, `GetDestinationForKey`,
`GetAllDestinationsForKey`, `CWallet::AddAndGetDestinationForScript`).
Almost all test scripts currently need to override the __init__()
method. When they do that they need to call into super().__init__() as
the base class does some generic initialization.
This commit makes the base class __init__() call into set_test_params()
method. Individual test cases can override set_test_params() to setup
their test parameters.
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.
