Dave Collins e04986528c Add --nocheckpoints option.
This commit provides a new flag, --nocheckpoints, to disable built-in
checkpoints.

Checkpoints are used for a number of things such a ensuring
the block chain being downloaded matches various known good blocks,
allowing quicker verification on old blocks since scripts don't have to be
executed, and preventing forks from old blocks, etc.
