It now takes a `proto_header` in parameter, and it returns a full
`shell_header`. This prepares the inclusion of the context's hash in the
`shell_header`.
The `begin_construction` function now accepts an optional argument
`proto_header`. This is to be used by a new RPC that ease forging the
shell header of a block (i.e. it will compute the fitness and, in a
near future, the hash of the resulting context).
Let's get serious. The full index of operations is not sustainable in
the production code. We now only keep the index of operations not yet
in the chain (i.e. the mempool/prevalidation). Operations from the
chain are now only accesible through a block. For instance, see the
RPC:
/blocks/<hash>/proto/operations
This prepares the context to the inclusion the hash of the context in
the block header. By "looking" into the resulting context of a block,
we are now know able to determine whether:
- no testnet is currently associated to the branch;
- a testnet must be forked after the block;
- a previously forked testnet is running.
