Implement infrastructure for BIP0009.
This commit adds all of the infrastructure needed to support BIP0009
soft forks.

The following is an overview of the changes:

- Add new configuration options to the chaincfg package which allows the
  rule deployments to be defined per chain
- Implement code to calculate the threshold state as required by BIP0009
  - Use threshold state caches that are stored to the database in order
    to accelerate startup time
  - Remove caches that are invalid due to definition changes in the
    params including additions, deletions, and changes to existing
    entries
- Detect and warn when a new unknown rule is about to activate or has
  been activated in the block connection code
- Detect and warn when 50% of the last 100 blocks have unexpected
  versions.
- Remove the latest block version from wire since it no longer applies
- Add a version parameter to the wire.NewBlockHeader function since the
  default is no longer available
- Update the miner block template generation code to use the calculated
  block version based on the currently defined rule deployments and
  their threshold states as of the previous block
- Add tests for new error type
- Add tests for threshold state cache
