add --regtest and --fixed-difficulty for regression testing

on_generateblocks RPC call combines functionality from the on_getblocktemplate and on_submitblock RPC calls to allow rapid block creation. Difficulty is set permanently to 1 for regtest.
Makes use of FAKECHAIN network type, but takes hard fork heights from mainchain
Default reserve_size in generate_blocks RPC call is now 1. If it is 0, the following error occurs 'Failed to calculate offset for'.
Queries hard fork heights info of other network types
