This harmonizes the block fetch timeout with the existing ping timeout
and eliminates a guaranteed eventual failure from congestion collapse
for a network operating right at its limit.
It's unlikely that we wouldn't suffer other failures if we were really
anywhere near the network's limit, and a complete avoidance of congestion
collapse risk requires (I think) an exponential back-off. So this isn't
a major concern, but I think it's also useful for reducing the complexity
of understanding out timeouts.

488ed32 consensus: guard against openssl's new strict DER checks (Cory Fields)
New versions of OpenSSL will reject non-canonical DER signatures. However,
it'll happily decode them. Decode then re-encode before verification in order
to ensure that it is properly consumed.

This will disconnect peers that do not transfer a block in 10 minutes, plus
5 minutes for every previously queued block with validated headers
(accomodating downstream bandwidth down to a few kilobytes per second - below
that the node would have trouble staying synchronized anyway).
on rare occasions, rand() was returning duped values, causing duplicate
transactions.
BuildMerkleTree happily used these, but CPartialMerkleTree caught them and
returned a null merkle root.
Rather than taking changes with rand(), use the loop counter to guarantee
unique values.
At sipa's request, also remove the remaining uses of rand().

Instead of using a fixed-width font in a label, which virtually
guarentees a horizontal scrollbar, use a proper text-document
that can re-layout based on user input.

Remove initialization from vector (as this is only used in the tests).
Also implement SetHex and GetHex in terms of uint256, to avoid
duplicate code as well as avoid endianness issues (as they
work in term of bytes).
- Methods that access the guts of arith_uint256 are removed,
as these are incompatible between endians. Use uint256 instead
- Serialization is no longer needed as arith_uint256's are never
read or written
- GetHash is never used on arith_uint256
