GenesisBlock (v4) now supports various transaction types (issue-asset, etc.)
with generated signatures (like genesis transaction signature) and
missing references inserted.
JUnit reverted back to v4 for Eclipse support (for now).
Some pom.xml changes to reduce maven-shade-plugin conflicting classes warnings.
Repository now supports SAVEPOINT and ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT.
HSQLDB concurrency/transaction model changed from LOCKS to MVCC to help with
transaction deadlocks/rollbacks.
More XXXs and TODOs added to Block.java for investigation/fix/improvements.
Also used new repository SAVEPOINT feature when validating transactions
instead of rolling back entire transaction. This fixes problem during
synchronization where the rollback would undo previously synchronized,
but not yet committed, blocks!
Transactions orphaned by Block.orphan ARE now added to unconfirmed pile,
unlike before.
Concurrent lock now prevents simultaneous block generation and synchronization,
including synchronization via multiple peers.
Lots of new networking code: peer lists, block signatures, blocks,
blockchain synchronization.
PEERS_V2 message now supports hostnames, IPv6 and port numbers.
Fixed bug with block serialization for transport over network.
Added GET /names to list all registered name.
Added GET /names/{name} for more info on a specific name.
Added GET /names/address/{address} for names owned by address.
Renamed GET /assets/all to GET /assets in line with above.
Fixed edge cases with AnnotationPostProcessor.
Fixed incorrectly exposed "blockHeight" in API UI examples/values.
Changed example transaction timestamp.
Added checks on building/signing/processing new transactions via API
so that they are not too old (older than latest block's timestamp),
too new (more than 24 hours in the future) or the tx creator doesn't
already have a lot of existing unconfirmed transactions (default 100).
Configurable via settings.json properties maxUnconfirmedPerAccount
and maxTransactionTimestampFuture.
Improved /transactions/search to not return unconfirmed transactions
and to order by timestamp.
Transaction.getCreator() now returns PublicKeyAccount, not Account.
