SSL independent release

***** Version 5.1.2.1 (RELEASE)

• Split the BIGNUM management from the SSL, make it possible to compile with SSL 1.0 or 1.1
• BUGFIX: removed the from the syntax of sendalert command
• Added the number of minutes in which the alert need to stay alive and been broadcasted (default to 3 minutes)
• When sending a rule, ignore the rule.nID, and just make it so that alert.nID = rule.nID (automatic numbering)
• BUGFIX: verify message did not work with SSL 1.1, ECDA structure not initializing r and s BIGNUM
• Added blockchain height display in Overview page
• BUGFIX: compile with BOOST >= 1.70, get_io_service() method no more present (replaced by another)
• USER REQUEST: make the command line option dialog resizable

Same as v5.1.0.1

Same as v5.1.0.1, this one will compile on ancient g++ compilers too. Functionality and version number are the same.

PALADIN activation release

********* NOTE *********
If this doesn't compile on your platform due to a rpcwallet.cpp error, please get the v5.1.0.1a instead. That one will compile on ancient g++ platforms as well.

***** Version 5.1.0.1 (RELEASE)

• Added RPC method "dustwallet", to be able to dust wallet from daemon as well given a series of parameters
• Added RPC method "listcoins", to display the selection made by the RPC call above (useful to report eventual issues)
• BUGFIX: subfolders under /images in theme were not managed, created 'list.v2.txt' and 'createDir::' tag to handle any subfolder, any level
• Added a message "There's a new theme pack" when opening the "Themes" tab
• BUGFIX: when a theme is not selected, makes no sense to attempt loading a folder... Fixed this error visible only in console.

---> ATTENTION: this version, after an initial rollout, will render anything < v5.0.0.1 OBSOLETE, meaning that only PALADIN capable version will be allowed to connect to mainnet. All Exchanges and Pools are urged to upgrade to v5.1.0.1 as soon as possible ! PALADIN will render future mandatory upgrades much less likely.

First release with PALADIN, QT5 support and tons of improvements

***** Version 5.0.0.1 (RELEASE)

• Project is now fully ported to QT5
• Remove self rescan at boot under certain conditions, not necessary anymore
• BUGFIX: network did not sync with only two nodes, cPeerBlockCountsList declaration fix (don't add an initial zero value)
• BUGFIX: when network resume after sleep or offline, clear the cPeerBlockCountsList internal vectors (BUG introduced by the above BUGFIX)
• BUGFIX: icon in QT when syncing, reflect the status of the IsInitialBlockDownload() function, and not another different logic
• Start over command: dump the chain files and start syncing from fresh with 1 click
• Now possible to disable system notification by a setting in Options dialog (cannot suppress critical notifications, only informational and warning)
• BUGFIX: listreceivedbyaddress RPC call, now accepts 3 parameters correctly (at least one exchange uses the call)
• BUGFIX: on QT5, autocompleter was not automatically hidden when pressing enter to execute the RPC command
• Added listalerts, sendrule, listrules RPC calls, to handle rule sending from any node (with the alert private key)
• BUGFIX: revisited toolbars, button names, positioning and made space for one more page: Log
• Adding Events tab, to display active alerts, information, warnings and critical messages in clear
• BUGFIX: if the wallet is not encrypted, make no sense to have the "Unlock to stake" menu command enabled...
• Display a message when dameon is attempting to connect to RPC but the wallet is still loading the blockchain
• BUGFIX: changed all references to "bicoin-xxx" thread names into "litecoinplus-xxx" names
• Pre-programmed a series of rules in the code for first release of PALADIN (see white paper for version 5.0.0.1)
• "getinfo" RPC method, removed errors/alerts, exposed Rule Height/Rule Sync status as a number/boolean instead
• QT creates the LitecoinPlus.conf file if it doesn't exist
• Automatic ID management for alerts, either for direct alerts or alert/rule packets
• BUGFIX: do not show "info" and "warning" alerts as critical in the system dbus notification, just those who are
• Added a suffix letter in version format for testnet, necessary when testing ('LitecoinPlus-[x]:X.X.X.X')
• Ported back -netoffline option that was in unpublished 4.1.0.1 (possibility to start the wallet offline)
• BUGFIX: adjusted behavior of rule_sync: rules.dat no, height 0 rule_sync=false; rules.dat yes, height 1 wallet offline rule_sync=false
• BUGFIX: PoS minting icon, different logic than the thread itself, let's all use the same logic, shall we...
• BUGFIX: IsInitialBlockDownload behaves incorrectly when syncing from zero, exiting its status almost immediately
• listalerts: added an optional [show_rules=false] parameters, to hide rule packets by default, unnecessary to see for non devs, but useful for eventual troubleshoot
• MAJOR FIX: QT version wasted an immense amount of resources when sending coins from many inputs, removed an unnecessary signal when marking spent coins
• Changed threshold of 10000 bytes to 30000 bytes in advanced coin controls (about 200 inputs can be safely manually selected)
• Changed block amount from 50 to 80 for automatic dusting, considering the new found speed for the major fix above
• Make universally compile version: QT4 and QT5 at the same time (on Windows, still need to use QT4 for compile reasons...)

Major update, with excellent smoothness during sync

***** Version 4.0.0.2

• Changed version to avoid testing confusion
• Read initial database load in bulk (128M chunks), greatly speeding boot on all drives, especially old HDD

***** Version 4.0.0.1

• Major overall improvement release
• Changed alert broadcasting private key (only known by two persons)
• Increased time from last block for IsInitialBlockDownload
• Changed the way images are applied to the splash screen
• Added 1 more decimal to external file loading screen
• Added ARM support for daemon and QT
• Fixed overwrite effect on splash when loading a theme
• Rotate dynamically the splash for long stuff, like index rebuild or bootstrap import
• Cross compile for Fedora 29 and Fedora 30
• Fixed compatibilty with BOOST >= 1.66
• BUGFIX: solved the "Assertion `!posix::pthread_mutex_lock(&m)' failed." on shutdown.
• BUGFIX: solved the slow shutdown issue along with the "mutex" bug above
• QApplication::commitData management, for automatic shutdown at LOGOUT, RESTART or SHUTDOWN
• Removed synced checkpoint check (very heavy), as centralized checkpoints are not used in LCP network
• BLOATFIX: removed "getheaders" code from net protocol, is not used in any way
• BLOATFIX: removed all unused functions from CBlockLocator class
• rpcwallet.cpp: do not use CBlockLocator to find blocks, use boost/map
• CBlockLocator::Set: instead of the mega heavy loop, just init to last 30 blocks + genesis one
• Removed separate boost at startup
• Added CBlkDB class
• Splitting blkindex.dat and txindex.dat files: one contains block index, the other transactions
• Automatic upgrade procedure when running the first time and it does not find the separate index
• CDiskBlockIndexV2: store hash of current block for wasting much less CPU at boot
• Drastic improvement of syncing speed (10000 blocks/minute with SSD, same speed as bootstrap file)
