It can't be really solved in many cases (it's used in P2P protocol and we have
to follow the usual conventions there) and in most of the cases we don't care
about the difference between nil slice and zero-length slice.
reflect.MethodByName is a rather expensive function especially when
called on hot path. This became obvious during profiling of db restore.
This commit replaces reflection with a cast to an interface.
Which speeds it up at least twofold for a typical 32-bytes write (and that's
for a very naïve test that allocates new BufBinWriter on every iteration):

golint:
pkg/io/binaryrw_test.go:25:11: should omit type []byte from declaration of var bin; it will be inferred from the right-hand side
pkg/io/binaryrw_test.go:42:11: should omit type []byte from declaration of var bin; it will be inferred from the right-hand side
pkg/io/binaryrw_test.go:118:7: should omit type string from declaration of var str; it will be inferred from the right-hand side
It's mostly used for Serializable and in other cases where one needs to
estimate binary-encoded size of the stucture. This also simplifies future
removal of the Size() from Serializable.
The logic here is that we'll have all binary encoding/decoding done via our io
package, which simplifies error handling. This functionality doesn't belong to
util, so it's moved.
This also expands BufBinWriter with Reset() method to fit the needs of core
package.
* Added utility function GetVarSize
* 1) Added Size method: this implied that Fixed8 implements now the serializable interface. 2) Added few arithmetic operation (Add, Sub, div): this will be used to calculated networkfeeand feePerByte. Changed return value of the Value() method to int instead of int64. Modified fixed8_test accordingly.
* Implemented Size or MarshalJSON method.
- Structs accepting the Size method implement the serializable interface.
- Structs accepting the MarshalJSON method implements the customized json marshaller interface.
* Added fee calculation
* Implemented rcp server method GetRawTransaction
* Updated Tests
* Fixed:
1) NewFixed8 will accept as input int64
2) race condition affecting configDeafault, blockchainDefault
* Simplified Size calculation
* 1) Removed global variable blockchainDefault, configDefault
2) Extended Blockchainer interface to include the methods: References, FeePerByte, SystemFee, NetworkFee
3) Deleted fee_test.go, fee.go. Moved corresponding methods to blockchain_test.go and blockchain.go respectively
4) Amended tx_raw_output.go
* Simplified GetVarSize Method
* Replaced ValueAtAndType with ValueWithType
* Cosmetic changes + Added test case getrawtransaction_7
* Clean up Print statement
* Filled up keys
* Aligned verbose logic with the C#-neo implementation
* Implemented @Kim requests
Refactor server_test.go
* Small fixes
* Fixed verbose logic
Added more tests
Cosmetic changes
* Replaced assert.NoError with require.NoError
* Fixed tests by adding context.Background() as argument
* Fixed tests
