48abfdf87c BIP0144+wire: add a MessageEncoding variant for serialization/deserialization
This commit modifies the existing wire.Message interface to introduce a
new MessageEncoding variant which dictates the exact encoding to be
used when serializing and deserializing messages. Such an option is now
necessary due to the segwit soft-fork package, as btcd will need to be
able to optionally encode transactions/blocks without witness data to
un-upgraded peers.

Two new functions have been introduced: ReadMessageWithEncodingN and
WriteMessageWithEncodingN which wrap BtcDecode/BtcEncode with the
desired encoding format.

lint tool.

d406d9e52b wire: Consolidate tests into the wire pkg. (#728)
Putting the test code in the same package makes it easier for forks
since they don't have to change the import paths as much and it also
gets rid of the need for internal_test.go to bridge.

This same thing should probably be done for the majority of the code
base.

ae00fff14a wire: Implement sendheaders command (BIP0130)
This implements the wire protocol encoding portion of a new
sendheaders message as described by BIP0130. It purpose is to request
that a peer sends header commands instead of inv commands when
announcing new blocks. This includes a protocol version bump to 70012
and a wire version bump to 0.4.0.

Note that this does not implement logic to handle the command in btcd,
rather it only makes the command available at the wire protocol level.
A future commit which honors the command and therefore provides full
BIP0130 support is still required.
