This PR significantly changes the APIs for instantiating Ethereum nodes in
a Go program. The new APIs are not backwards-compatible, but we feel that
this is made up for by the much simpler way of registering services on
node.Node. You can find more information and rationale in the design
document: https://gist.github.com/renaynay/5bec2de19fde66f4d04c535fd24f0775.
There is also a new feature in Node's Go API: it is now possible to
register arbitrary handlers on the user-facing HTTP server. In geth, this
facility is used to enable GraphQL.
There is a single minor change relevant for geth users in this PR: The
GraphQL API is no longer available separately from the JSON-RPC HTTP
server. If you want GraphQL, you need to enable it using the
./geth --http --graphql flag combination.
The --graphql.port and --graphql.addr flags are no longer available.
This removes the dashboard project. The dashboard was an experimental
browser UI for geth which displayed metrics and chain information in
real time. We are removing it because it has marginal utility and nobody
on the team can maintain it.
Removing the dashboard removes a lot of dependency code and shaves
6 MB off the geth binary size.
This adds all dashboard changes from the last couple months.
We're about to remove the dashboard, but decided that we should
get all the recent work in first in case anyone wants to pick up this
project later on.

* Add Call and EstimateGas to graphQL API
* Refactored to use hexutil.Bytes instead of HexBytes
* Replace BigNum with hexutil.Big
* Refactor call and estimateGas to use ethapi struct type
* Replace ethgraphql.Address with common.Address
* Replace ethgraphql.Hash with common.Hash
* Converted most quantities to Long instead of Int
* Add support for logs
* Fix bug in runFilter
* Restructured Transaction to work primarily with headers, so uncle data is reported properly
* Add gasPrice API
* Add protocolVersion API
* Add syncing API

* geth/core/eth: implement constantinople override flag
* les: implemnent constantinople override flag for les clients
* cmd/geth, eth, les: fix typo, move flag to experimentals
* dashboard: footer, deep state update
* dashboard: resolve asset path
* dashboard: remove bundle.js
* dashboard: prevent state update on every reconnection
* dashboard: fix linter issue
* dashboard, cmd: minor UI fix, include commit hash
* remove geth binary
* dashboard: gitCommit renamed to commit
* dashboard: move the geth version to the right, make commit optional
* dashboard: commit limited to 7 characters
* dashboard: limit commit length on client side
* dashboard: run go generate
* cmd, consensus, core, miner: instatx clique for --dev
* cmd, consensus, clique: support configurable --dev block times
* cmd, core: allow --dev to use persistent storage too
* p2p/discover, p2p/discv5: add marshaling methods to Node
* p2p/netutil: make Netlist decodable from TOML
* common/math: encode nil HexOrDecimal256 as 0x0
* cmd/geth: add --config file flag
* cmd/geth: add missing license header
* eth: prettify Config again, fix tests
* eth: use gasprice.Config instead of duplicating its fields
* eth/gasprice: hide nil default from dumpconfig output
* cmd/geth: hide genesis block in dumpconfig output
* node: make tests compile
* console: fix tests
* cmd/geth: make TOML keys look exactly like Go struct fields
* p2p: use discovery by default
This makes the zero Config slightly more useful. It also fixes package
node tests because Node detects reuse of the datadir through the
NodeDatabase.
* cmd/geth: make ethstats URL settable through config file
* cmd/faucet: fix configuration
* cmd/geth: dedup attach tests
* eth: add comment for DefaultConfig
* eth: pass downloader.SyncMode in Config
This removes the FastSync, LightSync flags in favour of a more
general SyncMode flag.
* cmd/utils: remove jitvm flags
* cmd/utils: make mutually exclusive flag error prettier
It now reads:
Fatal: flags --dev, --testnet can't be used at the same time
* p2p: fix typo
* node: add DefaultConfig, use it for geth
* mobile: add missing NoDiscovery option
* cmd/utils: drop MakeNode
This exposed a couple of places that needed to be updated to use
node.DefaultConfig.
* node: fix typo
* eth: make fast sync the default mode
* cmd/utils: remove IPCApiFlag (unused)
* node: remove default IPC path
Set it in the frontends instead.
* cmd/geth: add --syncmode
* cmd/utils: make --ipcdisable and --ipcpath mutually exclusive
* cmd/utils: don't enable WS, HTTP when setting addr
* cmd/utils: fix --identity
