Implements view tags as proposed by @UkoeHB in MRL issue
https://github.com/monero-project/research-lab/issues/73
At tx construction, the sender adds a 1-byte view tag to each
output. The view tag is derived from the sender-receiver
shared secret. When scanning for outputs, the receiver can
check the view tag for a match, in order to reduce scanning
time. When the view tag does not match, the wallet avoids the
more expensive EC operations when deriving the output public
key using the shared secret.

- grab an lmdb db_rtxn_guard to ensure consistent data from the db
- fixed on_getblockhash error resp when requested height >= blockchain height
- left functions that read shared memory untouched for now
It avoids dividing by 8 when deserializing a tx, which is a slow
operation, and multiplies by 8 when verifying and extracing the
amount, which is much faster as well as less frequent
In this repo, `boost::interprocess` was being used soley to make `uint32_t` operations atomic. So I replaced each instance of
`boost::interprocess::ipcdetail::atomic(...)32` with `std::atomic` methods. I replaced member declarations as applicable. For example,
when I needed to change a `volatile uint32_t` into a `std::atomic<uint32_t>`. Sometimes, a member was being used a boolean flag, so
I replaced it with `std::atomic<bool>`.
You may notice that I didn't touch `levin_client_async.h`. That is because this file is entirely unused and will be deleted in PR monero-project#8211.
Additional changes from review:
* Make some local variables const
* Change postfix operators to prefix operators where value was not need
This commit adds a 'regexp' boolean field to the get_accounts
request. The flag is set to false by default and maintains backwards
compatibility. When set to true the user can search tags by regular
expression filters. An additional error message was added for failed
regular expression searches. Bump minor version to 25.
This comment suggests this check is unnecessary, when it is completely necessary as miner TXs can have multiple outputs *which is a statement directly, and incorrectly, contradicted by this comment*. While I don't ever see someone removing this code and getting their edits merged into Monero, someone inexperienced who thinks they're cleaning old code may break their own work, and then there's really just zero benefit to keeping this around.
