Compact serialization for amounts

Special serializer/deserializer for amount values. It is optimized for
values which have few non-zero digits in decimal representation. Most
amounts currently in the txout set take only 1 or 2 bytes to
represent.

// Amount compression:
// * If the amount is 0, output 0
// * first, divide the amount (in base units) by the largest power of 10 possible; call the exponent e (e is max 9)
// * if e<9, the last digit of the resulting number cannot be 0; store it as d, and drop it (divide by 10)

// * if e==9, we only know the resulting number is not zero, so output 1 + 10*(n - 1) + 9
