Dev Fund allocation

Starting at the first Zcash halving in 2020, until the second halving in 2024, 20% of the block rewards will be allocated to a "Dev Fund" that consists of the following three slices:

Details below. The fund flow will be implemented at the consensus-rule layer, by sending the corresponding ZEC to the designated address in each block. This Dev Fund will end at the second halving (unless extended/modified by a future ZIP).
