   Implement listunspent / getrawtx / createrawtx / signrawtx, to support creation and signing-on-multiple-device multisignature transactions.

   See https://secure.bettermeans.com/projects/4180/wiki/Raw_Transaction_RPC_Test_Plan for the test plan.

   See https://gist.github.com/2839617 for the API design.

   Rebased to master and added rpcrawtx.cpp to bitcoin-qt.pro.

   But I’m having second thoughts on how to specify previous outputs; especially with @sipa’s compression work I think maybe specifying them as [txid,n,hex_scriptPubkey] might be better than just “hex_serialized_complete_transaction”

9. Rework gettransaction / getblock RPC calls

   This PULL reworks new (post-0.6.*) features of the
   gettransaction/getblock RPC calls as follows:
   
   It removes the 'decompositions' object argument from getblock,
   replacing it just a list of transaction hashes; equivalent
   (I believe) of passing the {"tx":"hash"} decomposition.
   
   It replaces the 'decompositions' object argument of
   gettransaction with a boolean flag; if true, returns
   the same stuff that the {"script":"obj"} decomposition
   would return (txins/txouts as hex, disassembled, and bitcoin
   addresses).
   
   It adds a "rawtx" field to the output of gettransaction,
   that is the entire transaction serialized and hex-encoded.
   
   It removes the "size" field from gettransaction, since the size
   is trivial to compute from the "rawtx" field (either take the
   length after hex-decoding, or just compute it as hex-length/2).

10. Refactor: SignSignature/VerifyScript

    Minor refactor to support signrawtx signing/verifying transactions
    when it might only have the previous transaction's txid and
    txOut.
