If the number of blocks to check was not a multiple of the
number of preparation threads, the last few blocks would
not be included in the threaded long hash calculation.
Those would still get calculated when the block gets added
to the chain, however, so this was only a tiny performance
hit, rather than a security bug.
They used to be sorted by amount, which was fine before rct,
but is now suboptimal, since amounts are not known anymore.
In particular, it would give a recipient knowledge of whether
change was higher or lower than the amount received.

The txid is not saved, and we want to make sure the transactions
have their txid cached while in the pool, since get_transactions
copies the transaction object, so any txid calculation on those
copies would not benefit any later caller, since the original tx
would be left without a cached txid.
Minimum mixin 4 and enforced ringct is moved from v5 to v6.
v5 is now used for an increased minimum block size (from 60000
to 300000) to cater for larger typical/minimum transaction size.
The fee algorithm is also changed to decrease the base per kB
fee, and add a cheap tier for those transactions which we do
not care if they get delayed (or even included in a block).

If the blocks aren't being linked against a binary (such as
one of the blockchain utilities), the symbol will not be
NULL, but the size will be 0. This avoids a apurious warning
about the data hash.
