This commit implements most of BIP0143 by adding logic to implement the
new sighash calculation, signing, and additionally introduces the
HashCache optimization which eliminates the O(N^2) computational
complexity for the SIGHASH_ALL sighash type.
The HashCache struct is the equivalent to the existing SigCache struct,
but for caching the reusable midstate for transactions which are
spending segwitty outputs.
This exposes a new function on the ScriptBuilder type named AddOps that
allows multiple opcodes to be added via a single call and adds tests to
exercise the new function.
Finally, it updates a couple of places in the signing code that were
abusing the interface by setting its private script directly to use the
new public function instead.
This commit contains a lot of cleanup on the txscript code to make it
more consistent with the code throughout the rest of the project. It
doesn't change any operational logic.
The following is an overview of the changes:
- Add a significant number of comments throughout in order to better
explain what the code is doing
- Fix several comment typos
- Move a couple of constants only used by the engine to engine.go
- Move a variable only used by the engine to engine.go
- Fix a couple of format specifiers in the test prints
- Reorder functions so they're defined before/closer to use
- Make the code lint clean with the exception of the opcode definitions
