A block interval is a relative thing so it makes sense to default to
zero. This is the same as how we derive `Debug` for `relative::Height`
but not `absolute::Height`.
These lints are valuable, lets get at em.
Changes are API breaking but because the changes make functions consume
self for types that are `Copy` downstream should not notice the breaks.
There is a range of different wordings used in the docs of constructor
type functions.
Change all to start with `Constructs a new` or `Constructs an empty`.
In functions that act like constructors there is a mixture of the usage
of `creates` and `constructs`.
Replace all occurrences of `creates` with `constructs` in the first line
of docs of constructor like functions.
The use of links in the rustdocs was inconsistent.
Links have been added when missing.
[`locktime::absolute::Height`] and [`locktime::relative::Height`] did
not work and `(crate::locktime)` was appended to fix it.
Add two simple integer wrapper types for abstracting over block
height (from genesis block) and block interval.
This does not include hex because block height is typically written in
decimal.
These types are very thin wrappers, their usecase is to assist in code
readability instead of enforcing any logic.
