Post trigger, this change will use all 128 bytes of previous block's signature when
calculating/validating next block's "minter" signature (itself the first 64 bytes of a block signature).
Prior to trigger, current behaviour is to only use first 64 bytes of previous block's
signature, which doesn't encompass transactions signature.
New block sig code should help reduce forking and help improve transactional
security.
Added "newBlockSigHeight" to blockchain.json but initially set to block 999999
pending decision on when to merge, auto-update, go-live, etc.

This is a serious change as it affects many callers.
Controller.onNetworkTransactionMessager()
-- should be OK to block as it's only one EPC thread
TransactionsResource.processTransaction()
-- should be OK to block as it's only one Jetty thread
AND has its own 30s timeout wrapper anyway
Implementations of AcctTradeBot.progress()
e.g. BitcoinACCTv1TradeBot.progress() & LitecoinACCTv1TradeBot.progress()
TradeBot.updatePresence()
-- these are called via BlockMinter/Synchronizer
when blockchain lock is already held, so will are unaffected
AcctTradeBot.createTrade() and AcctTradeBot.startResponse()
-- these are called via API
and previously would only perform non-blocking blockchainLock.try()
but now perform blocking blockchainLock.lock()
thus preventing NO_BLOCKCHAIN_LOCK when creating/responding to trades
especially after a (wasted) MESSAGE PoW compute
but with potential downside that API response might be delayed
e.g. by a very slow sync round
Future work could look into removing the need for blockchain lock
when calling Transaction.importAsUnconfirmed().
This table was previously defined using the TEMPORARY keyword as the rows were used as a cached/index to speed up AT trimming SQL statements.
However, the table definition was lacking the "ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS" clause, and possibly the "GLOBAL" keyword, which caused the table contents to be emptied, immediately after being filled, when <tt>repository.saveChanges()</tt> was called (i.e. "COMMIT").
This caused latest AT states to be trimmed in error.
AtRepositoryTests.testGetLatestATStatePostTrimming also fixed so that it fails with the previous, broken code.
