Josh Rickmar 4656a00705 Improve wallet atomicity.
This changes the database access APIs and each of the "manager"
packages (waddrmgr/wstakemgr) so that transactions are opened (only)
by the wallet package and the namespace buckets that each manager
expects to operate on are passed in as parameters.

This helps improve the atomicity situation as it means that many
calls to these APIs can be grouped together into a single
database transaction.

This change does not attempt to completely fix the "half-processed"
block problem.  Mined transactions are still added to the wallet
database under their own database transaction as this is how they are
notified by the consensus JSON-RPC server (as loose transactions,
without the rest of the block that contains them). It will make
updating to a fixed notification model significantly easier, as the
same "manager" APIs can still be used, but grouped into a single
atomic transaction.

waddrmgr

[Build Status] (https://travis-ci.org/btcsuite/btcwallet)

Package waddrmgr provides a secure hierarchical deterministic wallet address manager.

A 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 waddrmgr is licensed under the liberal ISC license.

Feature Overview

  • BIP0032 hierarchical deterministic keys
  • BIP0043/BIP0044 multi-account hierarchy
  • Strong focus on security:
    • Fully encrypted database including public information such as addresses as well as private information such as private keys and scripts needed to redeem pay-to-script-hash transactions
    • Hardened against memory scraping through the use of actively clearing private material from memory when locked
    • Different crypto keys used for public, private, and script data
    • Ability for different passphrases for public and private data
    • Scrypt-based key derivation
    • NaCl-based secretbox cryptography (XSalsa20 and Poly1305)
  • Scalable design:
    • Multi-tier key design to allow instant password changes regardless of the number of addresses stored
    • Import WIF keys
    • Import pay-to-script-hash scripts for things such as multi-signature transactions
    • Ability to export a watching-only version which does not contain any private key material
    • Programmatically detectable errors, including encapsulation of errors from packages it relies on
    • Address synchronization capabilities
  • Comprehensive test coverage
