In preparation for running the formatter on root level modules and a
submodule that holds all the macro calls in `hash_types` so we can
configure rustfmt to skip formatting them.
91ff2f628c Introduce SPDX license identifiers (Tobin C. Harding)
Pull request description:
When `rust-bitcoin` was started in 2014 the SPDX license list and short identifiers where not a thing. Now that we have short identifiers and they are gaining popularity in other projects we can consider using them.
- Add links to the SPDX website in the readme
- Shorten the author section to a single line
- Remove all the licence information in each file and replace it with an
SPDX ID (see https://spdx.dev/ids/#how)
Of note:
- If the author of a file is explicitly listed, maintain this information
- If the 'author' is listed as the generic 'Rust Bitcoin developers' just remove the attribution, this is implicit. This does loose the date info but that can be seen at any time from the git index using
`git log --follow --format=%ad --date default <FILE> | tail -1`
apoelstra, please confirm that I'm not treading on your toes here, especially, are you ok with the new 'written by' string format?

Fix#1020 (see more relevant discussion there)
This definitely makes the amount of generics compiler
has to generate by avoding generating the same functions
for `R`, &mut R`, `&mut &mut R` and so on.

In the unit-test binary itself, it saves ~100KB of data.
I did not expect much performance gains, but turn out I was wrong(*):

(*) - I'm benchmarking on a noisy laptop. Take this with a grain of salt. But I think
at least it doesn't make anything slower.
While doing all this manual labor that will probably generate conflicts,
I took a liberty of changing generic type names and variable names to
`r` and `R` (reader) and `w` and `W` for writer.
Use cargo to upgrade from edition 2015 to edition 2018.
cargo fix --edition
No manual changes made. The result of the command above is just to fix
all the use statements (add `crate::`) and fix the fully qualified path
formats i.e., `::Foo` -> `crate::Foo`.
Our usage of `SigHash` implies that 'sighash' is _two_ words; 'sighash'
is a well known word in the Bitcoin ecosystem it should appear in
identifiers as `Sighash`.
Rename the `SigHash` type to `Sighash`.
Put the calls to `impl_hashencode` in the same order, and with the same
whitespace, as the calls to `hash_newtype`. This makes groking the file
easier because its quick to glance down the types and see which ones
implement hashencode (consensus_encode/decode) and which ones do not.
Docs can always do with a bit of love.
Clean up the module level (`//!`) rustdocs for all public modules.
I claim uniform is better than any specific method/style. I tried to fit
in with what ever was either most sane of most prevalent, therefore
attaining uniformity without unnecessary code churn (one exception being
the changes to headings described below).
Notes:
* Headings - use heading as a regular sentence for all modules e.g.,
```
//! Bitcoin network messages.
```
as opposed to
```
//! # Bitcoin Network Messages
```
It was not clear which style to use so I picked a 'random' mature
project and copied their style.
* Added 'This module' in _most_ places as the start of the module
description, however I was not religious about this one.
* Fixed line length if necessary since most of our code seems to follow
short (80 char) line lengths for comments anyways.
* Added periods and fixed obvious (and sometimes not so obvious)
grammatically errors.
* Added a trailing `//!` to every block since this was almost universal
already. I don't really like this one but I'm guessing it is Andrew's
preferred style since its on the copyright notices as well.
This is instead of encode::Errors because the encoders should
not be allowed to return errors that don't originate in the writer
they are writing into.
This is a part of the method definition that has been relied upon for a
while already.
