This commit contains the entire btcscript repository along with several changes needed to move all of the files into the txscript directory in order to prepare it for merging. This does NOT update btcd or any of the other packages to use the new location as that will be done separately. - All import paths in the old btcscript test files have been changed to the new location - All references to btcscript as the package name have been chagned to txscript This is ongoing work toward #214.
