This adds a new build tag named rpctest which must be set in order for rpctest-based tests to be executed. The new build tag is also added to the goclean.sh script which is executed by Travis during continuous integration builds. This change is being made because the rpctest framework requires additional careful user configuration to ensure the version of btcd under test can be programmatically launched from the system path with all of the necessary ports open whereas all of the other tests are self-contained within the test binary itself. Since said additional configuration is typically not done, it leads to a lot of false positives. Putting the tests behind a build tag allows them to remain to be available and run during continuous integration without imposing the additional configuration requirements on users. |

Package rpctest provides a btcd-specific RPC testing harness crafting and
executing integration tests by driving a btcd instance via the RPC
interface. Each instance of an active harness comes equipped with a simple
in-memory HD wallet capable of properly syncing to the generated chain,
creating new addresses, and crafting fully signed transactions paying to an
arbitrary set of outputs.
This package was designed specifically to act as an RPC testing harness for
btcd. However, the constructs presented are general enough to be adapted to
any project wishing to programmatically drive a btcd instance of its
systems/integration tests.
