Alex Morcos c0353064dd Change GetPriority calculation.
Compute the value of inputs that already are in the chain at time of mempool entry and only increase priority due to aging for those inputs.  This effectively changes the CTxMemPoolEntry's GetPriority calculation from an upper bound to a lower bound.

Alex Morcos f22ac4a22c Increase success threshold for fee estimation to 95%
This provides more conservative estimates and reacts more quickly to a backlog.
Unfortunately the unit test for fee estimation depends on the success threshold (and the decay) chosen; also modify the unit test for the new default success thresholds.

Alex Morcos b649e03954 Create new BlockPolicyEstimator for fee estimates
This class groups transactions that have been confirmed in blocks into buckets, based on either their fee or their priority.  Then for each bucket, the class calculates what percentage of the transactions were confirmed within various numbers of blocks.  It does this by keeping an exponentially decaying moving history for each bucket and confirm block count of the percentage of transactions in that bucket that were confirmed within that number of blocks.

-Eliminate txs which didn't have all inputs available at entry from fee/pri calcs

-Add dynamic breakpoints and tracking of confirmation delays in mempool transactions

-Remove old CMinerPolicyEstimator and CBlockAverage code

-New smartfees.py

-Pass a flag to the estimation code, using IsInitialBlockDownload as a proxy for when we are still catching up and we shouldn't be counting how many blocks it takes for transactions to be included.

-Add a policyestimator unit test
