blockchain: Consistency pass on subscribe code.
This takes care of a few minor nits on the recently merged subscribe
code.  In particular:

- Avoid extra unnecessary allocation on notifications slice
- Avoid defer overhead on notification mutex in sendNotifications
- Make test function comment start with the name of the function per
  Effective Go guidelines
- Use constant for number of subscribers in test
- Don't exceed column 80 in test print
