Alex Morcos 553cad94e2 Rewrite CreateNewBlock
Use the score index on the mempool to only add sorted txs in order.  Remove much of the validation while building the block, relying on mempool to be consistent and only contain txs that can be mined.
The mempool is assumed to be consistent as far as not containing txs which spend non-existent outputs or double spends, and scripts are valid.  Finality of txs is still checked (except not coinbase maturity, assumed in mempool).
Still TestBlockValidity in case mempool consistency breaks and return error state if an invalid block was created.
Unit tests are modified to realize that invalid blocks can now be constructed if the mempool breaks its consistency assumptions and also updated to have the right fees, since the cached value is now used for block construction.

Notes

The sources in this directory are unit test cases. Boost includes a unit testing framework, and since bitcoin already uses boost, it makes sense to simply use this framework rather than require developers to configure some other framework (we want as few impediments to creating unit tests as possible).

The build system is setup to compile an executable called "test_bitcoin" that runs all of the unit tests. The main source file is called test_bitcoin.cpp, which simply includes other files that contain the actual unit tests (outside of a couple required preprocessor directives). The pattern is to create one test file for each class or source file for which you want to create unit tests. The file naming convention is "<source_filename>_tests.cpp" and such files should wrap their tests in a test suite called "<source_filename>_tests". For an examples of this pattern, examine uint160_tests.cpp and uint256_tests.cpp.

Add the source files to /src/Makefile.test.include to add them to the build.

For further reading, I found the following website to be helpful in explaining how the boost unit test framework works: http://www.alittlemadness.com/2009/03/31/c-unit-testing-with-boosttest/.

test_bitcoin has some built-in command-line arguments; for example, to run just the getarg_tests verbosely:

test_bitcoin --log_level=all --run_test=getarg_tests

... or to run just the doubledash test:

test_bitcoin --run_test=getarg_tests/doubledash

Run test_bitcoin --help for the full list.
