This commit modifies DecodeAddress to accept and decode pay-to-pubkey addresses (raw serialized public keys). Since the resulting Address needs to have a network associated with it, and a raw serialized public key does not encode the network with it, a new parameter has been added which requires the caller to specify a default network to use when decoding addresses. In the case the address has a network encoded with it such as for pay-to-pubkey-hash and pay-to-script-hash addresses, the network will be decoded from the address and the resulting Address instance will have that network associated with it. When the address does NOT have a network encoded with it, such as a pay-to-pubkey address, the provided default network will be associated with the returned Address instance. Also, the tests have been updated to test the new functionality. ok @owainga and @jrick. |

Package btcutil provides bitcoin-specific convenience functions and types.
A comprehensive suite of tests is provided to ensure proper functionality. See
test_coverage.txt for the gocov coverage report. Alternatively, if you are
running a POSIX OS, you can run the cov_report.sh script for a real-time
report. Package btcutil is licensed under the liberal ISC license.
This package was developed for btcd, an alternative full-node implementation of bitcoin which is under active development by Conformal. Although it was primarily written for btcd, this package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing the functionality provided.
