Now that caches are distinct (https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/4393),
we can use the Travis minimal image.
The minimal image should take less time to setup and lead to quicker builds.
Also addressed while I'm in here:
- No need to delete the broken google-chrome repo in the minimal image
- Set the hostname to work-around an openjdk bug
- Remove the non-functional apt-cache option
- Remove useless message at completion
- Install jre where the java tests are run
This was doing more harm than good. The original intention was to speed up
builds, since a PR's ccache results will be thrown away anyway.
However, each PR maintains its own cache, so disabling writes means that
subsequent pushes don't benefit from the fresh cache. This is significant when
(for example) many headers are touched in a PR, then the PR is updated. With
this change, the updated PR will take advantage of the cache generated during
the PR's previous build.

1) created rpc-tests.py
2) deleted rpc-tests.sh
3) travis.yml points to rpc-tests.py
4) Modified Makefile.am
5) Updated README.md
6) Added tests_config.py and deleted tests-config.sh
7) Modified configure.ac with script to set correct path in tests_config.py
For Gitian releases:
- Windows builds remain unchanged. libstdc++ was already linked statically.
- OSX builds remain unchanged. libstdc++ is tied to the SDK and not worth
messing with.
- Linux builds now statically link libstdc++.
For Travis:
- Match the previous behavior by adding --enable-reduce-exports as
necessary.
- Use static libstdc++ for the full Linux build.
