131344715a Minor environment variable improvements
- COIN and NET strip surrounding whitespace
- new environment variable RPC_HOST, similar to HOST, but
  for RPC.  Permits fine-grained control of which addresses
  the RPC server listens on.
- HOST and RPC_HOST strip surrounding whitespace from hostnames
  and IP addresses
- tests and documentation updated to match

3cc5b5ea43 Make COIN env variable mandatory.
- make a clean split between the  Cash and Segwit flavours of bitcoin
  by giving them their own COIN names.  They can then both have a NET
  of mainnet.
- The previous Bitcoin COIN names no longer exist, and the env var is
  now mandatory, so everyone will need to set COIN and NET appropriately
  for their flavour of bitcoin and mainnet or testnet.

a94d320e5d New feature: force peer discovery via proxy
Set FORCE_PROXY to non-empty to force peer discovery to go
through the proxy.  See docs/ENVIRONMENT.rst

Wait for an attempt at proxy discovery to be made before beginning
peer discovery.

151da40d5b Implement peer discovery protocol
Closes #104

DEFAULT_PORTS now a coin property
A Peer object maintains peer information
Revamp LocalRPC "peers" call to show a lot more information
Have lib/jsonrpc.py take care of handling request timeouts
Save and restore peers to a file
Loosen JSON RPC rules so we work with electrum-server and beancurd which don't follow the spec.
Handle incoming server.add_peer requests
Send server.add_peer registrations if peer doesn't have us or correct ports
Verify peers at regular intervals, forget stale peers, verify new peers or those with updated ports
If connecting via one port fails, try the other
Add socks.py for SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 proxying, so Tor servers can now be reached by TCP and SSL
Put full licence boilerplate in lib/ files
Disable IRC advertising on testnet
Serve a Tor banner file if it seems like a connection came from your tor proxy (see ENVIONMENT.rst)
Retry tor proxy hourly, and peers that are about to turn stale
Report more onion peers to a connection that seems to be combing from your tor proxy
Only report good peers to server.peers.subscribe; always report self if valid
Handle peers on the wrong network robustly
Default to 127.0.0.1 rather than localhost for Python <= 3.5.2 compatibility
Put peer name in logs of connections to it
Update docs

a7462a6ea3 Complete rewrite of JSON RPC infrastructure
Aim to be easier for clients to use, because to do peer
discovery we must act as a client to other servers.

Split out JSON session concept from the asyncio protocol
concept.  This makes the JSON RPC support more easily
testable and usable as a stand-alone library.

In addition, support JSON RPC v1 and v2, and auto-detection
of peer's version.

05a6da1920 Move peer management to peers.py from irc
It's cleaner and will be useful for peer-to-peer comms later

c958b3af49 Remove LMDB
Performance of history writes was very poor even with
the code rewritten to accommodate the environment concept
(see db_abstraction branch)

15051124af Make flushes and reorgs async
Apart from the flush on shutdown and the flush when caught up,
neither of which matter, this makes flushes asynchronous.

Also, block processing for reorgs is now asynchronous.

This also removes the FORCE_REORG debug envvar; I want to
put that into the RPC interface.

Closes #102
