Break the circular dependency between main and txdb by:
- Moving `CBlockFileInfo` from `main.h` to `chain.h`. I think this makes
sense, as the other block-file stuff is there too.
- Moving `CDiskTxPos` from `main.h` to `txdb.h`. This type seems
specific to txdb.
- Pass a functor `insertBlockIndex` to `LoadBlockIndexGuts`. This leaves
it up to the caller how to insert block indices.
Zcash: This does not actually break the circular dependency for us yet, as we
still need to pull in bitcoin/bitcoin#7756 and bitcoin/bitcoin#7904.
If a block is insufficiently-validated against a particular branch ID, then we
cannot guarantee that even the block header will be valid under the actual
consensus rules the node will want to apply. Instead require that the blocks are
completely re-validated, by removing them from the block index (which is
equivalent to reducing their validity to BLOCK_VALID_UNKNOWN).
Requires placing block-107134.tar.gz (containing the block, and a fake CoinsDB
containing its inputs) into the base directory of the repository. This can be
generated using qa/zcash/create_benchmark_archive.py (see the script for usage
details).
To facilitate generation of the fake CoinsDB, an additional field 'valueZat' has
been added to 'getrawtransaction' containing the integer number of zatoshis
instead of a decimal number of ZEC.

All direct modifications are now done through ModifyCoins, and BatchWrite is
used for pushing batches of queued modifications up, so we don't need the
low-level SetCoins and SetBestBlock anymore in the top-level CCoinsView class.
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
As block index entries have a flag for marking invalid blocks, the
'best invalid work' information can be derived from there. In addition,
remove the global from main.h
