Simulation Network (--simnet) Preconfigured Environment Setup Script

The dcr_tmux_simnet_setup.sh script provides a preconfigured simnet environment which facilitates testing with a private test network where the developer has full control since the difficulty levels are low enough to generate blocks on demand and the developer owns all of the tickets and votes on the private network.

The environment will be housed in the $HOME/dcrdsimnetnodes directory by default. This can be overridden with the DCR_SIMNET_ROOT environment variable if desired.

See the full Simulation Network Reference for more details.
