d20d756752 rpc: faster getblockstats using BlockUndo data (Felix Weis)
Pull request description:
Using undo data for a block (rev?????.dat) we can retrieve value information about prevouts and calculate the final transaction fee (rate). This approach is about 80x faster, drops the requirement for `-txindex`, and works for all non-pruned blocks.

3be209d103297aaf2fe4711e237a65046488ea19 rpc: Always throw in getblockstats if -txindex is required (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
Previously blocks with only the coinbase transaction didn't cause
the RPC error even if the requested stats required -txindex and
it wasn't enabled.
Fixes#14499.

4b7091a842 Replace median fee rate with feerate percentiles (Marcin Jachymiak)
Pull request description:
Currently, the `medianfeerate` statistic is calculated from the feerate of the middle transaction of a list of transactions sorted by feerate.
This PR instead uses the value of the 50th percentile weight unit in the block, and also calculates the feerate at the 10th, 25th, 75th, and 90th percentiles. This more accurately corresponds with what is generally meant by median feerate.

Pull request description:
The optparse module is deprecated since Python 2,7/3.2 . Recommend usage of the argparse module which improves upon optparse.

Pull request description:
It returns per block statistics about several things. It should be easy to add more if people think of other things to add or remove some if I went too far (but once written, why not keep it? EDIT: answer: not to test or maintain them).
The currently available options are: minfee,maxfee,totalfee,minfeerate,maxfeerate,avgfee,avgfeerate,txs,ins,outs (EDIT: see updated list in the rpc call documentation)
For the x axis, one can use height or block.nTime (I guess I could add mediantime if there's interest [EDIT: nobody showed interest but I implemented mediantime nonetheless, in fact there's no distinction between x or y axis anymore, that's for the caller to judge]).
To calculate fees, -txindex is required.
