Time is not really relevant for us here and we don't use this timestamp in any
way. Yet it occupies 24 bytes and we do two clock_gettime calls to get it.
Replace it with blockStamp which is going to be used in the future for
transaction retransmissions.
It allows to improve single-node TPS by another 3%.
We had a kludge for getrawtransaction to set this useless field, but
7e371588a7 broke it. Add it right into the
decoder now to fix all types of queries (getblock/getrawtransaction/gettxout).
Fixes#1392.
This error message makes no sense when shutting down the server:
2020-06-25T19:29:53.251+0300 ERROR failed to start RPC server {"error": "http: Server closed"}
And ListenAndServer is documented to always return non-nil error one of which
is http.ErrServerClosed. This should also fix the following test failure:

==================
Implement (*Param).GetBoolean() for converting parameter to bool value.
It is used for verbosity flag and is false iff it is either zero number
or empty sting.
Our block.Block was JSONized in a bit different fashion than result.Block in
its Nonce and NextConsensus fields. It's not good for notifications because
third-party clients would probably expect to see the same format. Also, using
completely different Block representation in result is probably making our
client a bit weaker as this representation is harder to use with other neo-go
components.
So use the same approach we took for Transactions and wrap block.Base which is
to be serialized in proper way.
Note that the protocol differs a bit from #895 in its notifications format,
to avoid additional server-side processing we're omitting some metadata like:
* block size and confirmations
* transaction fees, confirmations, block hash and timestamp
* application execution doesn't have ScriptHash populated
Some block fields may also differ in encoding compared to `getblock` results
(like nonce field).
I think these differences are unnoticieable for most use cases, so we can
leave them as is, but it can be changed in the future.
It will be important for proper subscription testing and it doesn't hurt even
though technically we've got two http servers listening after this change (one
is a regular Server's http.Server and one is httptest's Server). Reusing
rpc.Server would be nice, but it requires some changes to Start sequence to
start Listener with net.Listen and then communicate back its resulting
Addr. It's not very convenient especially given that no other code needs it,
so doing these changes just for a bit cleaner testing seems like and
overkill.
Update config appropriately. Update Start comment along the way.
