* cuck placeholder
* rustfmt
* cuckatoo, early days
* rustfmt
* data structures are in place, siphash key creation is consistent with @tromp
* solver in place, (not yet working)
* cuckatoo test solver working with test nonce
* rustfmt
* update solver to remove adjacency list removals
* verifier functioning
* rustfmt
* Proper error handing in Cuckatoo module, couple of tests
* modify cuckoo/cuckatoo solvers and verifiers to function identically, in advance of trait refactoring
* rustfmt
* refactor PoW context into trait, default to using cuckoo context
* rustfmt
* create macros for integer casting/unwraps
* don't instantiate structs when just verifying, add test validation vector for cuckatoo 29
* rustfmt
* don't init cuckoo structs if just validating
* test fix
* ensure BH hashing for POW is only done within miner/validators
* Move Proof and Difficulty types to pow module. Difficulty scaling calculation.
* Diffculty scaling and size shift for 2nd PoW
* Backport e7eb26ee
* Test compilation fixes
* Scaling only need to go one way, as @tromp pointed out
* improve: time crate flagged as deprecated, switch to actively maintained chrono crate
* improve: complete the switching from deprecated time crate to chrono crate, for all the tests part
* improve: complete switching to chrono crate, for the left tests in 'chain' and 'wallet'
* Added sizeshift to proof of work and encoding as VLQ
* Fix some loose ends to get things to compile
* Rename sizehift to min_sizeshift
* Pipeline checks for PoW Cuckoo Cycle size shift and adjustment
factor before difficulty comparison.
* Working delta+VLQ encoding of u64 PoW, unfortunately still a
little larger than u32, at least for Cuckoo30.
* Changed binary encoding of proof of work to a sequence of exact
compact bit representation of each nonce. Somewhat simpler,
shorter and matches the data to be hashed.
* Few fixes based on @tromp feedback:
* Max nonce is 2^(N-1)
* Need a separate constant for reference sizeshift
* Cuckoo implementation now conserves sizeshift. Test providing a
block at higher sizeshift.
* Last small overflow protection
Small refactoring of one folder, if it makes sense I could extend the scope.
* Remove some cloning (real and just verbosity in the code)
* Naming conventions like to/into*
* Some Clippy's suggestions
I found that we don't use field init shorthand syntax, so I didn't touch this part, was it discussed before?

tokio_core -> tokio_io
complete() -> send()
* playing around with changing cuckoo sizes on the fly
* modifying tests to use global cuckoo parameters, and checking results
* check for pow size
* Changing global function names, and removing length from POW serialization
* Adding cuckoo-miner into grin as a proper dependency now
* Defaulting to using cuckoo-miner
* Updates to tests to use cuckoo_miner by default, (using cuckoo16)
* Refactoring to allow for different miner implementations. Added conditional support for compiling and loading the cuckoo-miner plugin project.
* Small changes to experimentally integrate with cuckoo-miner and compatibility with latest version of cuckoo-miner.
* Turning off inclusion of cuckoo_miner by default
* Disabling simulate_parallel_mining test for now
* Beginning to add a POW description, and some minor changes to mining testing, addition of further debug information to mining output.
* Many additions to create first draft of POW documentation
* Fixes to difficult adjustments by adding a MINIMUM_DIFFICULTY consensus value. Otherwise never adjusted above 1 due to flooring.
Integrate the new difficulty calculation into the block chain
validation, the miner and tests. As the difficulty calculation
doesn't use varying Cuckoo sizes anymore and we narrowed down
reasonable final Cuckoo Cycle parameters, removed all Cuckoo
Cycle sizes from block headers.
Formalized easier Cuckoo Cycle sizes for testing (and possibly
testnet) by introducing a test mode in configuration. Updated
all tests.
* core: cleanup slicing impls for Hash
* core: clean up Readable trait, implement Readable/Writeable for various integers
* core: change Hash debug output to hex
* core: correct warnings in all modules
