Previously these functions would infinitely loop if sync failed;
now they have a default timeout of 60 seconds, after which an
AssertionError is raised.
sync_blocks() has also been improved and now compares the tip
hash of each node, rather than just using block count.
Zcash: Kept block count check for a couple of tests where we use it.
1) created rpc-tests.py
2) deleted rpc-tests.sh
3) travis.yml points to rpc-tests.py
4) Modified Makefile.am
5) Updated README.md
6) Added tests_config.py and deleted tests-config.sh
7) Modified configure.ac with script to set correct path in tests_config.py
Zcash: Migrated our test list over, and other necessary modifications.
The UI changes were not migrated.
Since the introduction of the ScriptForMining callback, the mining
functions (setgenerate and generate) crash with an assertion failure
(due to a NULL pointer script returned) if the keypool is empty. Fix
this by giving a proper error.
Zcash: Adapted to our MinerAddress type.

test: Use default shielded address in RPC tests where the type is irrelevant
This means we are running these tests against the recommended functionality,
and that these RPC tests will now use the faster Sapling addresses.
These are text files but their encoding does not depend on the locale.
Not all of them require utf8 but it is better to fix it at something
to remove potential unpredictability.
This is necessary on FreeBSD where no locale is set by default,
and apparently Python defaults not only the terminal encoding to the locale
but that of every text file. So without LOCALE environment it defaults text
file encoding to ASCII. This causes problems with e.g. `bitcoin.conf`.
Luckily the locale doesn't affect the default encoding for str.encode() and
bytes.decode() on Python 3, so this is the only change necessary.
allow getaddressutxos if -lightwalletd
The wallets need to be able to retrieve, via lightwalletd, the UTXO set for a given address, see https://github.com/zcash/lightwalletd/issues/312. The `getaddressutxos` rpc that was added for Insight Explorer is perfect for this, but this rpc is disabled when only `-lightwalletd` is enabled (that is, it requires `-insightexplorer`, which is a superset of `-lightwalletd`). However, the `DB_ADDRESSUNSPENTINDEX` index that supports this rpc is present when only `-lightwalletd` is enabled. This was probably a (fortuitous, as it turns out) oversight. So all that's required is to allow this rpc when `-lightwalletd` is enabled.
