Given that in default GetSerializeSize implementations created by
ADD_SERIALIZE_METHODS we're already using CSizeComputer(), get rid
of the specialized GetSerializeSize methods everywhere, and just use
CSizeComputer. This removes a lot of code which isn't actually used
anywhere.
For CCompactSize and CVarInt this actually removes a more efficient
size computing algorithm, which is brought back in a later commit.
The stream implementations had two cascading layers (the upper one
with operator<< and operator>>, and a lower one with read and write).
The lower layer's functions are never cascaded (nor should they, as
they should only be used from the higher layer), so make them return
void instead.
Adds an `obfuscate` parameter to `CLevelDBWrapper` and makes use of it
for all new chainstate stores built via `CCoinsViewDB`. Also adds an
`Xor` method to `CDataStream`.
Thanks to @sipa @laanwj @pstratem @dexX7 @KyrosKrane @gmaxwell.
This makes it easier for us to replace it if desired, since it's now only in
one spot. Also, it avoids the openssl include from allocators.h, which
essentially forced openssl to be included from every compilation unit.
