Drone

In order for the below test client and validators to work, we'll also need to
spin up a drone to give out some test tokens. The drone delivers Milton
Friedman-style "air drops" (free tokens to requesting clients) to be used in
test transactions.
Start the drone on the leader node with:
```bash
$ ./multinode-demo/drone.sh
```
