Create blockchain::GetBlockHash trait
with a method to get block hash given
a block height. Then, implement this
trait for all backends (Electrum, RPC
, Esplora, CBF). Referenced in issue 603.
Although somewhat convenient to have, coupling the Wallet with
the blockchain trait causes development friction and complexity.
What if sometimes the wallet is "offline" (no access to the blockchain)
but sometimes its online?
The only thing the Wallet needs the blockchain for is to sync.
But not all applications will even use the sync method and the sync
method doesn't require the full blockchain functionality.
So we instead pass the blockchain in when we want to sync.
- To further reduce the coupling with blockchain I removed the get_height call from `new` and just use the height of the
last sync in the database.
- I split up the blockchain trait a bit into subtraits.
The `Blockchain` implementation for connecting to an Esplora instance is
currently based on `reqwest`. Some users may not wish to use reqwest.
`ureq` is a simple HTTP client (no async) that is useful when `reqwest`
is not suitable.
- Move `esplora.rs` -> `esplora/reqwest.rs`
- Add an implementation based on the `reqwest` esplora code but using `ureq`
- Add feature flags and conditional includes to re-export everything to
the `esplora` module so we don't effect the rest of the code base.
- Remove the forced dependency on `tokio`.
- Make esplora independent of async-interface
- Depend on local version of macros crate
