Currently, we're keeping a timeout for each requested block, starting
from when it is requested, with a correction factor for the number of
blocks in the queue.
That's unnecessarily complicated and inaccurate.
As peers process block requests in order, we can make the timeout for each
block start counting only when all previous ones have been received, and
have a correction based on the number of peers, rather than the total number
of blocks.

Two-line patch to make it possible to shut down bitcoind cleanly during
the initial ActivateBestChain.
Fixes#6459 (among other complaints).
To reproduce:
- shutdown bitcoind
- copy chainstate
- start bitcoind
- let the chain sync a bit
- shutdown bitcoind
- copy back old chainstate
- start bitcoind
- bitcoind will catch up with all blocks during Init()
(the `boost::this_thread::interruption_point` / `ShutdownRequested()`
dance is ugly, this should be refactored all over bitcoind at some point
when moving from boost::threads to c++11 threads, but it works...)

New languages:
- `af` Afrikaans
- `es_AR` Spanish (Argentina)
- `es_CO` Spanish (Colombia)
- `ro` Romanian
- `ta` Tamil
- `uz@Latn` Uzbek in Latin script
This removes the following executables from the binary gitian release:
- test_bitcoin-qt[.exe]
- bench_bitcoin[.exe]
@jonasschnelli and me discussed this on IRC a few days ago - unlike the
normal `bitcoin_tests` which is useful to see if it is safe to run
bitcoin on a certain OS/environment combination, there is no good reason
to include these. Better to leave them out to reduce the download
size.
Sizes from the 0.12 release:
```
2.4M bitcoin-0.12.0/bin/bench_bitcoin.exe
22M bitcoin-0.12.0/bin/test_bitcoin-qt.exe
```

This RPC test will test both the activation mechanism of the first versionbits soft fork as well as testing many code branches of the consensus logic for BIP's 68, 112, and 113.
- Replace NOP3 with CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY (BIP112)
<nSequence> CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY -> <nSequence>
- Fails if txin.nSequence < nSequence, allowing funds of a txout to be locked for a number of blocks or a duration of time after its inclusion in a block.
- Pull most of CheckLockTime() out into VerifyLockTime(), a local function that will be reused for CheckSequence()
- Add bitwise AND operator to CScriptNum
- Enable CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY as a standard script verify flag
- Transactions that fail CSV verification will be rejected from the mempool, making it easy to test the feature. However blocks containing "invalid" CSV-using transactions will still be accepted; this is *not* the soft-fork required to actually enable CSV for production use.
SequenceLocks functions are used to evaluate sequence lock times or heights per BIP 68.
The majority of this code is copied from maaku in #6312

"do not meet pay the minimum relay fee" ? I can understand English language quite well, but that I do not understand. So, if it's not an semantic nonsense, I would suggest to write it in more simple English.
