Apply new difficulty algo, remove configurable cuckoo size
...
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.

Implemented new difficulty calculation algorithm.
...
See #62 for background. Still needs to be integrated with proof
of work and validation.

Block headers maintain total difficulty up to previous. Changed all references of target to difficulty to stay consistent. Ported retargeting algo to use difficulty as well.

Removed limit on number of inputs or outputs in blocks and transactions. For DoS protection only a total message size needs to be enforced by the p2p layer.

Target needs to be truncated after next target calculation, given that serialization in the block header does it anyway.

Block now uses the new Target type. Consensus next_target calculation adjusting every block based on deviation and increasing Cuckoo size gradually. Block time of a minute until we learn more from mining ecosystem, so enough PoW attempts can be made even on CPUs.
