0) Adjust BIP30 enforcement values
1) Reduce amount that peers can adjust our time to eliminate an attack vector. Thanks to
coblee for this fix.
2) Zeitgeist2 patch - thanks to Lolcust and ArtForz. This fixes an issue where a
51% attack can change difficulty at will. Go back the full period unless it's the
first retarget after genesis.
3) Avoid overflow in CalculateNextWorkRequired(). Thanks to pooler for the overflow fix.
4) Zeitgeist2 bool fshift bnNew.bits(). Thanks to romanornr for this path.
5) SegWit ContextualCheckBlockHeader adjustment and extra coverage.
6) Reject peer proto version below 70002. Thanks to wtogami for this patch.
7) Send final alert message to nodes warning about removal of the alert system. Thanks to coblee for this patch.
8) Adjust default settings for Litecoin.
9) Adjust STALE_CHECK_INTERVAL value
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.

eb9ef04c4 REST: add "blockhashbyheight" call, fetch blockhash by height (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:

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.
