We can't change "softforks", but it seems far more logical to use tags
in an object rather than using an "id" field in an array.
For example, to get the csv status before, you need to iterate the
array to find the entry with 'id' field equal to "csv":
jq '.bip9_softforks | map(select(.id == "csv"))[] | .status'
Now:
jq '.bip9_softforks.csv.status'
There is no issue with fork names being incompatible with JSON tags,
since we're selecting them ourselves.

Check the Content-Type header that is returned from the RPC server. Only
if it is `application/json` the data is supposed to be parsed as JSON.
This gives better reporting if the HTTP server happens to return an error that is
not JSON-formatted, which is the case if it happens at a lower level
before JSON-RPC kicks in.
Before: `Unexpected exception caught during testing: No JSON object could be decoded`
After: `JSONRPC error: non-JSON HTTP response with '403 Forbidden' from server`
Avoid an infinite loop in encoding, by ensuring EncodeDecimal
returns a string. round(Decimal) used to convert it to
float, but it no longer does in python 3.x. Strings are
supported since #6380, so just use that.
Replace the `bitcoin-cli -rpcwait` after spawning bitcoind
with our own loop that detects when bitcoind exits prematurely.
And if one node fails to start, stop the others.
This prevents a hang in such a case (see #7463).
Remove necessity to call create_callback_map (as well as the function
itself) from the Python P2P test framework. Invoke the appropriate
methods directly.
- Easy to forget to call it and wonder why it doesn't work
- Simplifies the code
- This makes it easier to handle new messages in subclasses
