Consensus: Decouple from chainparams.o and timedata.o #8077

1. 
   jtimon commented at 12:46 pm on May 20, 2016: contributor

   Do it for the consensus-critical functions:

   • CheckBlockHeader
   • CheckBlock
   • ContextualCheckBlockHeader

   Part of #7829. Competing with #7985 and #7947.

   Rationale: if these functions are to be moved to the consensus module/package, they need to stop depending on chainparams.o and timedata.o from the server package. Somewhat analogous to #7459.

2. Consensus: Decouple from chainparams.o and timedata.o

   Do it for the consensus-critical functions:
   
   - CheckBlockHeader
   - CheckBlock
   - ContextualCheckBlockHeader
