a distributed hash table byzantine fault tolerant
Slight clarification on scalability
Figured out how to make variable length integers that
will be represented in correct order in a patricia
merkle tree.
But did not apply the concept to the parameter pack,
event though I applied no end of cleverness to generate
a variant concept, because
visual studio gives meaningless error messages when applying
a variant concept to a parameter pack.
This will probably improve in later or different compilers,
but right now, this feature does not work
sanity test of pubkey mysteriously fails in display_wallet, yet identical test with same values succeeds in unit_test
need to create a view once sanity test passes.
then need to refresh display on edit/add name
need to make a second try at integrating release v3.2.2.1
Restored the wallet manifest.
Discovered that local wxString variables are apt to get wiped during
a throw. Dangerous to pass a wXstring.utf8() to an exception
Used it in one place. Better than printf
derived functionality.
But they never bothered to think through supporting user types,
and that is a complete mess that is grossly inconsistent or simply
not working from one compiler to the next.
Remade hashing according to the dry principle,
eliminating much code repetition.
Introduced c++20 "concepts" to radically reduce
verbose and incomprehensible template metacode.

Because one has to separately specify build characteristics in
many different places it is quite difficult to make sure the right
things are linking the right things.
I added the two files msvc/winConfigDebug.bat msvc/winConfigRelease.bat
To build only the libaries that should be linked, so we will get an
error message if a release build links to a debug build.
I have been using their unreleased versions for a very
long time.
The release has radically reorganized the build process, probably
to support arm builds
Turned off the deprecated compare warning with explanation
Made a small start on getting names in correct order in the display_wallet
Unit test and create new wallet is still broken if wallet file does
not already exist
changed it to proof of share.
Made a small start on populating the horizontal navbar
discovered that no end of my documentation has been broken
by events and should not be linked in.
and a banner.
Broke all my existing markdown builds, because I
have a hundred files that do not fit the new machinery
And now I have to provide navbars for each directory,
and update the mkdocs.sh in each directory
And add a recursive invocation of mkdocs in subdirectories
