The account manager was previously created by packge cmd/utils as part
of flag processing and then passed down into eth.Ethereum through its
config struct. Since we are starting to create nodes which do not have
eth.Ethereum as a registered service, the code was rearranged to
register the account manager as its own service. Making it a service is
ugly though and it doesn't really fix the root cause: creating nodes
without eth.Ethereum requires duplicating lots of code.
This commit splits utils.MakeSystemNode into three functions, making
creation of other node/service configurations easier. It also moves the
account manager into Node so it can be used by those configurations
without requiring package eth.
We used to have reporting of bad blocks, but it was disabled
before the Frontier release. We need it back because users
are usually unable to provide the full RLP data of a bad
block when it occurs.
A shortcoming of this particular implementation is that the
origin peer is not tracked for blocks received during eth/63
sync. No origin peer info is still better than no report at
all though.
geth js stopped the JS runtime after running the first input file
and blocked for pending callbacks. This commit makes it process
all files and enables quitting with Ctrl-C regardless of callbacks.
Error reporting is also improved. If a script fails to load, the error
is printed and includes the backtrace. package jsre now ensures that
otto is aware of the filename, the backtrace will contain them.
Before:
$ geth js bad.js; echo "exit $?"
... log messages ...
exit 0
After:
$ geth js bad.js; echo "exit $?"
... log messages ...

These changes make prompting behave consistently on all platforms:
* The input buffer is now global.
Buffering was previously set up for each prompt, which can cause weird
behaviour, e.g. when running "geth account update <input.txt" where
input.txt contains three lines. In this case, the first password
prompt would fill up the buffer with all lines and then use only the
first one.
* Print the "unsupported terminal" warning only once.
Now that stdin prompting has global state, we can use it to track
the warning there.
* Work around small liner issues, particularly on Windows.
Prompting didn't work under most of the third-party terminal emulators
on Windows because liner assumes line editing is always available.

Added chain configuration options and write out during genesis database
insertion. If no "config" was found, nothing is written to the database.
Configurations are written on a per genesis base. This means
that any chain (which is identified by it's genesis hash) can have their
own chain settings.
The debug package provides an RPC wrapper for glog settings and the
debugging facilities of the Go runtime. They can be triggered through
both command line flags and the IPC listener.
* lines with leading space are ommitted from history
* exit processed even with whitespace around
* all whitespace lines (not only empty ones) are ignored
