* Calculate and store the number of bytes required to spend an input
* Store effective value, fee, and long term fee in CInputCoin
Have CInputCOin store effective value information. This includes the effective
value itself, the fee, and the long term fee for the input
* Implement Branch and Bound coin selection in a new file
Create a new file for coin selection logic and implement the BnB algorithm in it.
* Move output eligibility to a separate function
* Use a struct for output eligibility
Instead of specifying 3 parameters, use a struct for those parameters
in order to reduce the number of arguments to SelectCoinsMinConf.
* Remove coinselection.h -> wallet.h circular dependency
Changes CInputCoin to coinselection and to use CTransactionRef in
order to avoid a circular dependency. Also moves other coin selection
specific variables out of wallet.h to coinselectoin.h
* Add tests for the Branch and Bound algorithm
* Move current coin selection algorithm to coinselection.{cpp,h}
Moves the current coin selection algorithm out of SelectCoinsMinConf
and puts it in coinselection.{cpp,h}. The new function, KnapsackSolver,
instead of taking a vector of COutputs, will take a vector of CInputCoins
that is prepared by SelectCoinsMinConf.
* Move original knapsack solver tests to coinselector_tests.cpp
* Add a GetMinimumFeeRate function which is wrapped by GetMinimumFee
* Have SelectCoinsMinConf and SelectCoins use BnB or Knapsack and use it (partial)
Allows SelectCoinsMinConf and SelectCoins be able to switch between
using BnB or Knapsack for choosing coins.
Has SelectCoinsMinConf do the preprocessing necessary to support either
BnB or Knapsack. This includes calculating the filtering the effective
values for each input.
Uses BnB in CreateTransaction to find an exact match for the output.
If BnB fails, it will fallback to the Knapsack solver.
Dash specific note: just always use Knapsack in CreateTransaction.
* Benchmark BnB in the worst case where it exhausts
* Add a test to make sure that negative effective values are filtered
