Revised payment request handling to use genesis block hash instead of network name, enabling
support for more networks that just Bitcoin main and test net.
This updated various time-based constants to more closely reflect values
appropriate to Dogecoin:
* Number of blocks to look back for BIP 66 enforcement is doubled on
main net (to about a day and a half's worth, vs 5 days on Bitcoin),
and raised to 1,000 on testnet (bringing it up to the same quantity
as Bitcoin testnet).
* BIP 66 enforcement cut-offs are scaled up appropriate.
* Minimum number of blocks and blockchain size are increased for
pruning. In comparison to Bitcoin this uses 24 hours as a minimum,
rather than 48, although given blocks are rarely full this likely
reflects a lot longer in reality.
Introduces 1 COIN/kb fees, rounded up to the next 1 COIN.
Disable free transactions
Dust outputs incur a 1 COIN additional fee
Add unit tests for fee calculation
Update existing unit tests with higher transaction values so that transactions are still standard

This is an ideal version of what the release process should look like,
making it more consistent with the OS X process. Some of the changes
described here would need to be made in the descriptors, which is somewhat
beyond what I would feel comfortable doing, not really understanding the signature process in depth.

This prevents an edge case where a block downloaded and pruned
in-between successive calls to FindNextBlocksToDownload could
cause the block to be unnecessarily re-requested.

- fixes#3136
- the problem is related to Boost path and a static initialized internal
pointer
- using a std::string in CDBEnv::EnvShutdown() prevents the problem
- this removes the boost::filesystem::path path field from CDBEnv

Replaced references to Namecoin with Dogecoin
Set chain ID when constructing a new block to be mined
Added assignment overload so that assigning one BlockVersion to another does a full copy.
Add Scrypt hash and AuxPoW header to index database so that index can be validated
(a check that both Litecoin and Namecoin disable for simplicity). The index format
is incompatible with 1.8, as a result, however, and guidelines on performing the
upgrade will need to be prepared.
Given scope of the change, it may be advisable for services to prepare bootstrap files and destroy existing index databases entirely before reindexing. To discuss.
There is no previous block when validating the genesis block as part of contextual checks,
so block height cannot be used. Consensus parameters are now taken from height 0 for
the genesis check, and from block height only if the it's not the genesis block.
Updated maximum coins to match Dogecoin.
Updated protocol version to disable connections to pre-AuxPoW clients.
Disable version 2 block requirement
Update coinbase maturity to match Dogecoin
