Increase wallet-dump RPC timeout from 30 seconds to 1 minute. This avoids a
timeout error that seemed to happen regularly (around 50% of builds) on a
particular jenkins server during the first getnewaddress RPC call made by the
test.
The failing stack trace looked like:
Unexpected exception caught during testing: timeout('timed out',)

Three categories of modifications:
1)
1 instance of 'The Bitcoin Core developers \n',
1 instance of 'the Bitcoin Core developers\n',
3 instances of 'Bitcoin Core Developers\n', and
12 instances of 'The Bitcoin developers\n'
are made uniform with the 443 instances of 'The Bitcoin Core developers\n'
2)
3 instances of 'BitPay, Inc\.\n' are made uniform with the other 6
instances of 'BitPay Inc\.\n'
3)
4 instances where there was no '(c)' between the 'Copyright' and the year
where it deviates from the style of the local directory.
These are text files but their encoding does not depend on the locale.
Not all of them require utf8 but it is better to fix it at something
to remove potential unpredictability.
This is necessary on FreeBSD where no locale is set by default,
and apparently Python defaults not only the terminal encoding to the locale
but that of every text file. So without LOCALE environment it defaults text
file encoding to ASCII. This causes problems with e.g. `bitcoin.conf`.
Luckily the locale doesn't affect the default encoding for str.encode() and
bytes.decode() on Python 3, so this is the only change necessary.
This improves error reporting if `JSONRPCException` is not specifically caught
and ends up in Python's default backtrace handler.
Before:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/.../projects/bitcoin/bitcoin/qa/rpc-tests/test_framework/authproxy.py", line 153, in __call__
raise JSONRPCException(response['error'])
test_framework.authproxy.JSONRPCException
```
After:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/.../projects/bitcoin/bitcoin/qa/rpc-tests/test_framework/authproxy.py", line 152, in __call__
raise JSONRPCException(response['error'])
test_framework.authproxy.JSONRPCException: Unknown named parameter random (-8)
```
waitfornewblock waits until a new block is received, or the timeout expires, then
returns the current block height/hash.
waitforblock waits for a specific blockhash, or until the timeout expires, then
returns the current block height/hash. If the target blockhash is the current
tip, it will return immediately.
waitforblockheight waits until the tip has reached a certain height or higher,
then returns the current height and hash.
waitforblockheight is used to avoid polling in the rpc tests.
mininode now supports witness transactions/blocks, blocktools
has a helper for adding witness commitments to blocks, and script
has a function to calculate hashes for signature under sigversion
1, used by segwit.

Test to make sure upgraded nodes don't ask for non-wit blocks by
Gregory Sanders.
Add a setting ensure_ascii to AuthServiceProxy. This setting,
defaulting to True (backwards compatible),
is passed through to json.dumps. If set to False, non-ASCII characters
>0x80 are not escaped. This is useful for testing server
input processing, as well as slightly more bandwidth friendly in case of
heavy unicode usage.
Previously these functions would infinitely loop if sync failed;
now they have a default timeout of 60 seconds, after which an
AssertionError is raised.
sync_blocks() has also been improved and now compares the tip
hash of each node, rather than just using block count.
