- Added FindProposal and FindFinalBudget to budgeting class
- Added 2 new sporks for Proposals and Budget payment enforcement. This is outside of the decentralized code so we can turn it off if there's a problem.
- Detect budget blocks and pay correct amounts in super blocks
- All budgeting code seems to be rather stable now. Serialization/caching is working rather well.
- Fixed some ambiguous variable names within the budgeting system that were causing the file caching to not work all of the time
- Added commands for using budgets "mnbudget" and "mnfinalbudget"
- Supports 100% decentralized budget control and view-only site with json meta data object
- Removed of reference node and replaced with decentralized quorums that pick the masternodes who get paid each block.
- Made a budgeting system, where masternodes can vote on individual budgets and the data is stored perminently on each clients computer
Some tests in CheckBlockIndex require chainActive.Tip(), but when reindexing, chainActive has not been set on the first call to CheckBlockIndex.
reindex.py starts a node, mines 3 blocks, stops, and reindexes with CheckBlockIndex enabled.

This adds a -checkblockindex (defaulting to true for regtest), which occasionally
does a full consistency check for mapBlockIndex, setBlockIndexCandidates, chainActive, and
mapBlocksUnlinked.
- Ensures ports remain open and client are responsive to IX requests.
- Completely 100% decentralized. This farms out the work of checking the masternode network to the masternode network. 1% of the network is determistically selected to check another 1% of the network each block. It takes six separate checks to deactivate a node, thus making it tamper proof.
- Nodes are kept in the masternode list if they fail enough PoSe checks to deactivate. They will continue to be checked until the operator fixes them. However they will not be paid while they're failing checks.
When re-indexing, there are a few cases where garbage data may be skipped in
the block files. In these cases, the indices are correctly written to the index
db, however the pointer to the next position for writing in the current block
file is calculated by adding the sizes of the valid blocks found.
As a result, when the re-index is finished, the index db is correct for all
existing blocks, but the next block will be written to an incorrect offset,
likely overwriting existing blocks.
Rather than using the sum of all valid blocks to determine the next write
position, use the end of the last block written to the file. Don't assume that
the current block is the last one in the file, since they may be read
out-of-order.

The only time when a client sends a "getaddr" message is when he
esatblishes an Outbound connection (see ProcessMessage() in
src/main.cpp). Another bitcoin client is expected to receive a
"getaddr" message only on Inbound connection. Ignoring "gettaddr"
requests on Outbound connections can resolve potential privacy issues
(and as was said such request normally do not happen anyway).

With headers-first we can compare against the best header timestamp, rather
than using checkpoints which require code updates to maintain.

- call ProcessMessageMasternodePayments on ProcessBlock (lost after moving mnodeman functionality)
- do not process extra functionality messages (DS, IX, spork) on initial download / reindex
Normally bitcoin core does not display any network originated strings without
sanitizing or hex encoding. This wasn't done for strcommand in many places.
This could be used to play havoc with a terminal displaying the logs,
especially with printtoconsole in use.
Thanks to Evil-Knievel for reporting this issue.
