This change makes btcd's getblock command match bitcoind's. Previously
the default verbosity was 0, which caused errors when using the
rpcclient library to connect to a bitcoind node - getblock would
unmarshall incorrectly since it didn't expect a verbosity=1 result when
it did not specify verbosity.
I started playing with simnet and was confronted with error message:
```
[ERR] FNDG: Unable to broadcast funding tx for ChannelPoint(<point>:0):
-22: TX rejected: transaction <tx> has witness data, but segwit isn't active yet
```
I wasn't aware of the activation period so I got quite puzzled.
Google helped. But I think the message could mention likely cause.
Newly it optionally prints something like:
```
(The threshold for segwit activation is 300 blocks on simnet, current best height is 113)
```
Refactor GetBlockVerboseResult into two separate types: one type for getblock "hash" verbosity=1,
and a second type for getblock "hash" verbosity=2. This is necessary due to how getblock returns
a block's transaction data based on the provided verbosity parameter.
If verbosity=1, then getblock.Tx is an array of a block's transaction ids (txids) as strings.
If verbosity=2, then getblock.Tx is an array of raw transaction data.
Due to differences in how getblock returns data based on the provided verbosity parameter, it's necessary
to have two separate return types based on verbosity. This necessitates a separate unmarshalling function
(represented throughout rpcclient/chain.go as Result.Receive()) to ensure that data is correctly unmarshalled
and returned to the user.
* rpcclient: replace futures mainnet with params
Adds a chaincfg.Params to the Client
rpcclient: parse config to assign params
* rpcclient: change address commands to Address
* Change address future struct to contain a network field, so futures
can return the correct type for Receive

$GOPATH caching has led to flaky tests as per #1503 and #1536. The speedup is marginal and while the false negatives are a headache, false positives are potentially dangerous.
