The deserialization of bitcoin transactions in wire/ is rather
annoying in that we first allocate a new bitcoin_tx, then copy it's
contents onto the destination and then still carry the newly allocated
one around due to the tal-tree. This splits `pull_bitcoin_tx` into
two: one part that does the allocation and another one that proceeds
to parse.

It's just a sha256_double, but importantly when we convert it to a
string (in type_to_string, which is used in logging) we use
bitcoin_txid_to_hex() so it's reversed as people expect.

BIP141 indicates that the rule for block size has changed: witness
bytes effectively count for 1, and non-witness bytes count for 4, but
the maximum total has increased to 4,000,000.
This means that fee estimates should use the witness cost (divided by
4), not the raw txlen.

We currently linearize and then measure the string; this is better since
we're about to do it in a second place.

We need this for signing segwitness txs. Unfortunately, we don't have it
for transactions we received as hex, only ones we created; to make this safe
we use a pointer which is NULL if we don't know, and those will crash if
we try to sign or check their sigs.

I had already disabled it, and this clears the decks for Segregated Witness
which gives us everything we want.

I got confused navigating these, especially since Alpha and Bitcoin
have diverged (BIP68 was proposed after Elements Alpha).

The latest version of the BIP doesn't use inversion, but does use
bitshifts.
It also uncovered a bug in the test scripts: the block timestamps
creep forward when we generate large numbers of blocks (UpdateTime
insists it be > GetMedianTimePast() so it's valid). We need to take
this into account when waiting for the median to move (reduced it from
60 to 30 seconds, since that adds about 14 seconds).
