- device name is a new wallet property
- full device name is now a bit more structured so we can address particular device vendor + device path. Example: 'Ledger', 'Trezor:udp', 'Trezor:udp:127.0.0.1:21324', 'Trezor:bridge:usb01'. The part before ':' identifies HW device implementation, the optional part after ':' is device path to look for.
- new --hw-device parameter added to the wallet, can name the hardware device
- device reconnect added

The secret spend key is kept encrypted in memory, and
decrypted on the fly when needed.
Both spend and view secret keys are kept encrypted in a JSON
field in the keys file. This avoids leaving the keys in
memory due to being manipulated by the JSON I/O API.
Also added notes to WalletManager::verifyWalletPassword (which afaik seems unused
by anyone at the moment) regarding the need to unlock the keys file beforehand.
This is based on how much an attacking miner stands to lose in block
rewardy by mining a private chain which double spends a payment.
This is not foolproof, since mining is based on luck, and breaks
down as the attacking miner nears 50% of the network hash rate,
and the estimation is based on a constant block reward.
key derivation and checking for incoming outputs are threaded
in batch before adding blocks to the local blockchain. Other
minor bits and bobs are also cached.
