00aee1458e Higher account levels more likely to win blocks
Also:

RewardShareKeys app now supports only one arg (minter private key)
in self-reward-share mode, where recipient public key is derived
from minter private key.

Added methods to Account for returning 'effective' minting level
where minting level for founders is read from blockchain config.
(Or returns zero if unable to mint).

Changed two Block constructors into static methods that return
a new Block as there was way too much work being done to really
be called a constructor, especially with all the opportunities
to throw an exception too.

Main blockchain config updated to reflect near-launch version.

Added/changed blockchain weight tests to check block winning
based on higher account levels.

491e79b8e6 ProxyForging->RewardShare massive refactor & more...
Unified terminology from block "generator", "forger", etc. to "minter"

Unified terminology "proxy forger" to "reward share" as it was
incorrect, or at least highly ambiguous, which account had which role.

AccountRepository.findRewardShares() has different arg order!

Account.canMint() now returns true if account has 'founder' flag set.
Added Account.canRewardShare() which returns whether acocunt can create
a reward-share (e.g. level 5+ or founder).

Fixed HSQLDBAssetRepository.getAllAssets() which had incorrect
resultSet column indexes.

Removed old traces of EnableForging transaction.

ACCOUNT_LEVEL and ACCOUNT_FLAGS (genesis-block-only transaction types)
now set target account's last-reference. This is allow later REWARD_SHARE
transactions in genesis block and post-genesis transactions by that account.

REWARD_SHARE transactions are now FREE, but only if minter is also recipient.
If a self-reward-share already exists, then unless share-percent is zero (to
terminate reward-share), any subsequent self-reward-share is invalid.

Updated SysTray i18n properties file.

BlockChain config file requires 'minAccountLevelToRewardShare' and optional
'minAccountLevelToMint'.

Added potential, but currently unused, memory-hard PoW algorithm.

Fixed/removed/disabled some unit tests.
BlockMinter.generateTestingBlock asks Controller to pretend mintingAccount is 'online'.
More testing needed!
