Notice that it makes the node accept Extensible payloads with any category
which is the same way C# node works. We're trusting Extensible senders,
improper payloads are harmless until they DoS the network, but we have some
protections against that too (and spamming with proper category doesn't differ
a lot).
Problem:
```
--- FAIL: TestDumpDB (0.08s)
--- FAIL: TestDumpDB/too_low_chain
testing.go:894: TempDir RemoveAll cleanup: remove C:\Users\Anna\AppData\Local\Temp\TestDumpDB_too_low_chain357310492\001\chains\privnet\000001.log: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

Solution:
Release resources occupied by the chain even on non-error command exit.
1. Initialization is performed via `Blockchain` methods.
2. Native Oracle contract updates list of oracle nodes
and in-fly requests in `PostPersist`.
3. RPC uses Oracle module directly.
If port is dynamically allocated, `(*Server).Addr` will contain
0 port. This commit executes listener before exiting from `Start()`
and sets Addr to the actual address.
It's not needed any more with Go 1.13 as we have wrapping/unwrapping in base
packages. All errors.Wrap calls are replaced with fmt.Errorf, some strings are
improved along the way.
We make it explicit in the appropriate Block/Transaction structures, not via a
singleton as C# node does. I think this approach has a bit more potential and
allows better packages reuse for different purposes.
Given `-s 1` with a dump of 6001 blocks it skipped the first one and then
tried to import the next 6001 which failed with EOF because there are only
6000 blocks left.
NGD dumps are all zero-based and even though I don't like it (genesys block
should not be imported, it's the root of chain trust), we have to conform to
this convention for interoperability with C# nodes (otherwise they're not able
to import our dumps).
This also renames `skip` dumper parameter to `start` which is more logical
now, the default is to start the dump from block number zero.
This seriously improves the serialization/deserialization performance for
several reasons:
* no time spent in `binary` reflection
* no memory allocations being made on every read/write
* uses fast ReadBytes everywhere it's appropriate
It also makes Fixed8 Serializable just for convenience.
This one enables our RPC to be called from the browser if there is a
need. It's insecure and not standards-compliant, thus this behaviour is
configurable is not enabled by default. It makes our node with this workaround
enabled compatible with neo-mon monitoring.
Originally debugged by @anatoly-bogatyrev in #464.
add close function to storage interface
add common defer function call which will close db connection
remove context as soon as it's not needed anymore
updated unit tests
* Fixed small incosistencies related to comments and variable name
* For testing purposes we have to move the method newBlockchain from the cli/server/server.go to pkg/core/blockchain.go. In addition we have to rename it to NewBlockchainLevelDB in order to be able to export it and avoid naming conflicts. In future we still need to think how to switch between different blockchain implementation easily but for the time being this is not possible.
* Added unit tests for the rpc server
* Added unit_testnet chain fixture
* fixed port number
* Added errors handling
* move unit_testnet chain from 'cli/chains' to 'pkg/rpc/chains'
* Adds basic RPC supporting files
* Adds interrupt handling and error chan
* Add getblock RPC method
* Update request structure
* Update names of nodes
* Allow bad addresses to be registered in discovery externally
* Small tidy up
* Few tweaks
* Check if error is close error in tcp transport
* Fix tests
* Fix priv port
* Small tweak to param name
* Comment fix
* Remove version from server
* Moves submitblock to TODO block
* Remove old field
* Bumps version and fix hex issues
* Created test_data folder with block json files for testing + create separate file for block base.
* Fixed bug in WriteVarUint + Trim logic + unit tests
* Refactored store and add more tests for it.
* restore headerList from chain file
* Fix tx decode bug + lots of housekeeping.
* Implemented Node restore state from chain file.
* Created standalone package for storage. Added couple more methods to Batch and Store interfaces.
* Block persisting + tests
* bumped version -> 0.31.0
* Adds struct for config settings
* Bumps version
* Move settings around
* Only push version tag up not whole branch as well
* Move config into own path and add test and main nets
* Update config for timeouts
* Convert to yaml
* block partial persist
* replaced refactored files with old one.
* removed gokit/log from deps
* Tweaks to not overburden remote nodes with getheaders/getblocks
* Changed Transporter interface to not take the server as argument due to a cause of race warning from the compiler
* started server test suite
* more test + return errors from message handlers
* removed --race from build
* Little improvements.
* Initial draft of the neo-go wallet
* Cleanup + more test for util package
* integrated wallet into neo-cli partially
* base wallet implementation + smartcontract code.
