And use it to fix a race condition in mempool_persist.py:

Since e.g. getrawmempool returns errors based on this status, this
enables users to test it for readiness.

ce3baa193 changed regtest RPCport to 18443 to avoid conflict with testnet 18332 (Ferdinando M. Ametrano)
Pull request description:
using the same JSON-RPC default port for both testnet and regtest prevents running both at the same time on the same machine. Since RPCport=P2Pport-1 for both mainnet and testnet, and regtest P2Pport being 18444, 18443 is proposed for regtest RPCport
Documentation has been updated (or created where missing); manpages doc/man/bitcoin*.1 could include information for regtest too

It is unreasonable to ask to change the global package configuration
just to build a package. Not only that, this is potentially harmful to the system.
Also do a few punctuation fixes in REST-interface.md.
