Notable changes

zcash-cli: arguments privacy

The RPC command line client gained a new argument, -stdin to read extra arguments from standard input, one per line until EOF/Ctrl-D. For example:

$ src/zcash-cli -stdin walletpassphrase
mysecretcode
120
^D (Ctrl-D)

It is recommended to use this for sensitive information such as private keys, as command-line arguments can usually be read from the process table by any user on the system.
