This is to allow for all 4 shards to roll into CrossTxEpoch and start
having cross-shard-transaction-related fields in block header/body
before the fields are actually used. Otherwise, if a shard A enters
CrossTxEpoch before shard B does and sends a cross-shard receipt to
shard B, it cannot be processed because chain B still lacks the incoming
receipts field.
Also introduce NewHeader and NewHeaderWith functions. The latter is
friendlier for create-and-initialize expressions, and can be used
in place of the old &Header{field: value, ...} syntax.
* Log the right shard number for wallet/getFreeToken
* Don't try to use empty commit bitmap from genesis block
* Fail hard if block reward or finalization fails
* Log the public key if message sig verification fails
* Extract and save chain state from received blocks in order to
eliminate deep tail recursion
* Properly deep copy chain config (previously ChainID was being shared
among chains)
* Eliminate chain use-before-init window in node.New()
* Save genesis epoch shard state in new blockchain database
* Do not check epoch of the received shard state message (temp
workaround – we should introduce the check elsewhere)
* Propose an empty block if no transactions have been received for 10
seconds
