- `--help`, `--version` etc should exit with `0` i.e. no error ("not enough args" case should still trigger an error)
- error reading config file should exit with `1`
Slightly refactor AppInitRPC/AppInitRawTx to return standard exit codes (EXIT_FAILURE/EXIT_SUCCESS) or CONTINUE_EXECUTION (-1)
The changes here are dense and subtle, but hopefully all is more explicit
than before.
- CConnman is now in charge of sending data rather than the nodes themselves.
This is necessary because many decisions need to be made with all nodes in
mind, and a model that requires the nodes calling up to their manager quickly
turns to spaghetti.
- The per-node-serializer (ssSend) has been replaced with a (quasi-)const
send-version. Since the send version for serialization can only change once
per connection, we now explicitly tag messages with INIT_PROTO_VERSION if
they are sent before the handshake. With this done, there's no need to lock
for access to nSendVersion.
Also, a new stream is used for each message, so there's no need to lock
during the serialization process.
- This takes care of accounting for optimistic sends, so the
nOptimisticBytesWritten hack can be removed.
- -dropmessagestest and -fuzzmessagestest have not been preserved, as I suspect
they haven't been used in years.
This allows future software that would relay compact blocks before
full validation to announce only to peers that will not ban if the
block turns out to be invalid.

Check for unreasonable alloc size in LockedPool rather than lancing through new
Arenas until we improbably find one worthy of the quixotic request or the system
can support no more Arenas.
- Use the python standard logging library
- Run all tests and report all failing test-cases (rather than stop after one test case fails)
- If output is different from expected output, log a contextual diff.
Refer to the right file in the top-level README.md.
Having only one file with test documentation saves some confusion about
where things are documented.

GetTotalBlocksEstimate is no longer used and it was the only thing
the checkpoint tests were testing.
Since checkpoints are on their way out it makes more sense to remove
the test file than to cook up a new pointless test.
This introduces a 'minimum chain work' chainparam which is intended
to be the known amount of work in the chain for the network at the
time of software release. If you don't have this much work, you're
not yet caught up.
This is used instead of the count of blocks test from checkpoints.
This criteria is trivial to keep updated as there is no element of
subjectivity, trust, or position dependence to it. It is also a more
reliable metric of sync status than a block count.
Fixes newly initialized bloom filters being
constructed with isEmpty(false), which still
works but loses the possible speedup when
checking for key membership in an empty filter.
