* all: get rid of error when create mdb

* core: clean up variables definition

* all: inline mdb definition

This commit reduces database I/O by not writing every state trie to disk.

* accounts, consensus, core, eth: make chain maker consensus agnostic

* consensus, core: move CalcDifficulty to Engine interface

* consensus: add docs for calcDifficulty function

* consensus, core: minor comment fixups

This commit adds pluggable consensus engines to go-ethereum. In short, it
introduces a generic consensus interface, and refactors the entire codebase to
use this interface.

This commit solves several issues concerning the genesis block:

* Genesis/ChainConfig loading was handled by cmd/geth code. This left
  library users in the cold. They could specify a JSON-encoded
  string and overwrite the config, but didn't get any of the additional
  checks performed by geth.
* Decoding and writing of genesis JSON was conflated in
  WriteGenesisBlock. This made it a lot harder to embed the genesis
  block into the forthcoming config file loader. This commit changes
  things so there is a single Genesis type that represents genesis
  blocks. All uses of Write*Genesis* are changed to use the new type
  instead.
* If the chain config supplied by the user was incompatible with the
  current chain (i.e. the chain had already advanced beyond a scheduled
  fork), it got overwritten. This is not an issue in practice because
  previous forks have always had the highest total difficulty. It might
  matter in the future though. The new code reverts the local chain to
  the point of the fork when upgrading configuration.

The change to genesis block data removes compression library
dependencies from package core.

Reworked the EVM gas instructions to use 64bit integers rather than
arbitrary size big ints. All gas operations, be it additions,
multiplications or divisions, are checked and guarded against 64 bit
integer overflows.

In additon, most of the protocol paramaters in the params package have
been converted to uint64 and are now constants rather than variables.

* common/math: added overflow check ops
* core: vmenv, env renamed to evm
* eth, internal/ethapi, les: unmetered eth_call and cancel methods
* core/vm: implemented big.Int pool for evm instructions
* core/vm: unexported intPool methods & verification methods
* core/vm: added memoryGasCost overflow check and test

This reverts commit 8b57c494.

This commit implements EIP158 part 1, 2, 3 & 4

1. If an account is empty it's no longer written to the trie. An empty
  account is defined as (balance=0, nonce=0, storage=0, code=0).
2. Delete an empty account if it's touched
3. An empty account is redefined as either non-existent or empty.
4. Zero value calls and zero value suicides no longer consume the 25k
  reation costs.

params: moved core/config to params

This change introduces a global, per-state cache that keeps account data
in the canon state. Thanks to @karalabe for lots of fixes.

The chain maker and the simulated backend now run with a homestead phase
beginning at block 0 (i.e. there's no frontier).

This commit also fixes up #2388

Added chain configuration options and write out during genesis database
insertion. If no "config" was found, nothing is written to the database.

Configurations are written on a per genesis base. This means
that any chain (which is identified by it's genesis hash) can have their
own chain settings.

This removes the burden on a single object to take care of all
validation and state processing. Now instead the validation is done by
the `core.BlockValidator` (`types.Validator`) that takes care of both
header and uncle validation through the `ValidateBlock` method and state
validation through the `ValidateState` method. The state processing is
done by a new object `core.StateProcessor` (`types.Processor`) and
accepts a new state as input and uses that to process the given block's
transactions (and uncles for rewords) to calculate the state root for
the next block (P_n + 1).

* Renamed ChainManager to BlockChain
* Checkpointing is no longer required and never really properly worked
when the state was corrupted.

Added a `Difference` method to `types.Transactions` which sets the
receiver to the difference of a to b (NOTE: not a **and** b).

Transaction pool subscribes to RemovedTransactionEvent adding back to
those potential missing from the chain.

When a chain re-org occurs remove any transactions that were removed
from the canonical chain during the re-org as well as the receipts that
were generated in the process.

Closes #1746

Genesis release. Closes #1402

Conflicts:
	cmd/geth/main.go

I forgot to update one instance of "go-ethereum" in commit 3f047be5.

All code outside of cmd/ is licensed as LGPL. The headers
now reflect this by calling the whole work "the go-ethereum library".

Implemented the --genesis flag thru which we can set a custom genesis
block, including the official Ethereum genesis block.

* Miners do now verify their own header, not their state.
* Changed old putTx and putReceipts to be exported
* Moved writing of transactions and receipts out of the block processer
  in to the chain manager. Closes #1386
* Miner post ChainHeadEvent & ChainEvent. Closes #1388
