cmake: transitive deps and remove deprecated LINK_*

2016-09-18T06:56:26Z

Keep the immediate direct deps at the library that depends on them, declare deps as PUBLIC so that targets that link against that library get the library's deps as transitive deps. Break dep cycle between blockchain_db <-> crytonote_core. No code refactoring, just hide cycle from cmake so that it doesn't complain (cycles are allowed only between static libs, not shared libs). This is in preparation for supproting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS cmake built-in option for building internal libs as shared.

New "Halfway RingCT" outputs for coinbase transactions

2016-08-28T20:30:26Z

When RingCT is enabled, outputs from coinbase transactions are created as a single output, and stored as RingCT output, with a fake mask. Their amount is not hidden on the blockchain itself, but they are then able to be used as fake inputs in a RingCT ring. Since the output amounts are hidden, their "dustiness" is not an obstacle anymore to mixing, and this makes the coinbase transactions a lot smaller, as well as helping the TXO set to grow more slowly. Also add a new "Null" type of rct signature, which decreases the size required when no signatures are to be stored, as in a coinbase tx.
