Signing a message with ECDSA involves using a random number, and this means
that two signatures should never be the same. This commit adds some basic tests
to Key.signSync and Message.sign to make sure this is the case. Also, a new
bitcore.Key should never have the same private key twice. This commit also adds
a basic test to make sure that is the case.
In the browser, sometimes the config for bignum wasn't being set up if (somehow
... still not sure how this is possible) you use bitcore without using
require('bitcore'). This would by pass the code that set the config for bignum.
Solution is to put the config for bignum in bignum itself (in the browser).
This fixes, in particular, an issue with base58 where it was depending on
bignum having the proper config.
Also I add the base58 tests to run in the browser which they weren't
previously.
And finally I add a small test for Bignum in the browser that makes sure the
config is set properly.
...no longer relies on Manuel's repo hostig a version of "bignum" that actually
contained bignumber.js. This moves bignumber.js internally and removes bignum
from the browser build process. Also adds a bitcore.Bignum that links to the
right thing. In node, browser.Bignum is require('bignum'). And in the browser,
bitcore.Bignum is is now Bignumber.js (same as before ... except bignumber.js
is now inside bitcore).
New things:

* Peer discovery
* Signature sorting in TransactionBuilder
* BIP32 speed improvements
* Electrum-style public key derivation
* Refactor node/browser code
