Josh Rickmar 6842aa006d Merge remaining dcrutil code into a dcrd package.
This merge commit adds the following code from the
github.com/decred/dcrutil package into a new
github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil package:

* Address handling
* Amount type
* AppDataDir func
* bitflags functions
* Block wrapper type
* Hash160 func
* Tx wrapper type
* WIF type

as well as all tests for this code.

The old github.com/decred/dcrutil/hdkeychain package has also been

dcrd Websockets Example

This example shows how to use the rpcclient package to connect to a dcrd RPC server using TLS-secured websockets, register for block connected and block disconnected notifications, and get the current block count.

This example also sets a timer to shutdown the client after 10 seconds to demonstrate clean shutdown.

Running the Example

The first step is to use go get to download and install the rpcclient package:

$ go get -u github.com/decred/dcrd/rpcclient

Next, modify the main.go source to specify the correct RPC username and password for the RPC server:

	User: "yourrpcuser",
	Pass: "yourrpcpass",

Finally, navigate to the example's directory and run it with:

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/decred/dcrd/rpcclient/examples/dcrdwebsockets
$ go run *.go
