A sort+uniq step was done for every tx in a 200 block chunk,
causing a lot of repeated scanning as the size of the offset
map got larger with every added tx. We now do the step only
once at the end of the loop.
Doing it this way potentially uses more memory, but testing
shows that it's currently only about 2% more.
If the number of blocks to check was not a multiple of the
number of preparation threads, the last few blocks would
not be included in the threaded long hash calculation.
Those would still get calculated when the block gets added
to the chain, however, so this was only a tiny performance
hit, rather than a security bug.
They used to be sorted by amount, which was fine before rct,
but is now suboptimal, since amounts are not known anymore.
In particular, it would give a recipient knowledge of whether
change was higher or lower than the amount received.

The txid is not saved, and we want to make sure the transactions
have their txid cached while in the pool, since get_transactions
copies the transaction object, so any txid calculation on those
copies would not benefit any later caller, since the original tx
would be left without a cached txid.
Minimum mixin 4 and enforced ringct is moved from v5 to v6.
v5 is now used for an increased minimum block size (from 60000
to 300000) to cater for larger typical/minimum transaction size.
The fee algorithm is also changed to decrease the base per kB
fee, and add a cheap tier for those transactions which we do
not care if they get delayed (or even included in a block).

If the blocks aren't being linked against a binary (such as
one of the blockchain utilities), the symbol will not be
NULL, but the size will be 0. This avoids a apurious warning
about the data hash.
This is to prevent unbounded memory use. Since I don't think there
is a container that has quick insert, quick lookup, and automatic
FIFO, I use two and swap every N, clearing the oldest one.
You're wondering how this fixes core tests, aren't you...
It prevents the miner (initialized by cryptonote::core) from
breaking trying to access arguments that were not added.
Since the tests don't use the miner directly, it makes more
sense to have cryptonote_core add those, since it also uses
the miner.
They're now used by core to determine the data directory to use
for the txpool directory.
This fixes an assert in the core tests, which don't use the RPC
server, which normally initializes the P2P code.

When scanning for outputs used in a set of incoming blocks,
we expect that some of the inputs in their transactions will
not be found in the blockchain, as they could be in previous
blocks in that set. Those outputs will be scanned there at
a later point. In this case, we add a flag to control wehther
an output not being found is expected or not.
Zero change is sent to a random address, which confuses the code
which determines which key to use to encrypt the payment id.
Ignore zero amounts for this purpose, so the payment id gets
encrypted with the real destination's key.
