With this changeset two-level multisigning is removed from the
codebase and replaced with single-level multisigning.
Additionally, SignerLists in the ledger are prepared for the
possibility of multiple SignerLists per account. This was done
by adding a defaulted 32-bit SignerListID to each SignerList.
The SignerListIndex calculation incorporates the SignerListID.
There are three known missing elements:
1. Multisigned transactions should require higher fees than
regular (single-signed) transaction. That's not yet
implemented.
2. It should be possible to disable the master key on an account
if that account is multisign enabled (has a signer list).
That's not yet implemented.
3. Documentation about multisigning needs to be improved.
Multisigning is still compiled out of the code base. To enable
multisigning for a stand-alone rippled, change the
RIPPLE_ENABLE_MULTI_SIGN macro (in BeastConfig.h) to "1" and
rebuild.
This commit also addresses:
o RIPD-912: Remove multisign APIs from STObject, and
o RIPD-944: Replace common_transactor with jtx at call sites.
This tidies up the View interface and makes transaction
application a free function, with the removal of the
TransactionEngine class. A new class ApplyContext provides
all the state information needed to apply a Transactor. The
Transactor is refactored to perform all the processing
activities previously part of TransactionEngine.
The calculation of metadata from a MetaView is improved.
A new apply function performs all the steps for calculating
and inserting metadata into the tx map.
Transaction processing code path is passed a Config instead
of retrieving the global, and uses the Journal supplied in
the call to apply() consistently.
To support transaction processing and RPC operations, a
new POD type ViewInfo is added which consolidates static
information about open and closed ledgers, such as the ledger
sequence number or the closing times. Ledger and MetaView are
refactored to use this info.
The ViewInfo now contains the "open ledger" setting. The
tapOPEN_LEDGER ViewFlag is removed. The view property of
being an open ledger is obtained from the base or by using
the MetaView constructor which presents a closed ledger as
an open one.
