d6eb259953 [Fee logic] Don't count txins for priority to encourage sweeping.
This changes the priority calculation to not include the size of per-txin
 data including up to 110 bytes of scriptsig so that transactions which
 sweep up extra UTXO don't lose priority relative to ones that don't.

I'd toyed with some other variations, but it seems like any formulation
 which results in an incentive stronger than making them not count will
 sometimes create incentives to add extra outputs so that you have
 extra inputs to consume later.  The maximum credit is limited so that
 users don't lose the disincentive to stuff random data in their
 transactions, the limit of 110 is based on the size of a P2SH
 redemption with a compressed public key.

This shouldn't need a staged deployment because the priority is not
 used as a relay criteria, only a mining criteria.

f1dbed9233 miner: constify CreateNewBlock() arg scriptPubKeyIn 2013-08-25 20:16:23 -04:00

7e17018995 CreateNewBlock() now takes scriptPubKey argument,
rather than a key.

CreateNewBlockWithKey() helper is added to restore existing functionality,
making this an equivalent-transformation change.

d247a5d130 Move internal miner/block creation to separate miner.cpp module.
Public functions referenced elsewhere are added to miner.h.
