* WIP: switching to fixed offsets for SignBytes
* add version field to sign bytes and update order
* more comments on test-cases and add a tc with a chainID

- it doesn't affect if default fixed size fields ((u)int64) are
written or not
- add comment about int->int64 casting
* update CHANGELOG_PENDING
* update documentation

* change Type field from string to byte and add new type alias
- SignedMsgType replaces VoteTypePrevote, VoteTypePrecommit and adds new
ProposalType to separate votes from proposal when signed
- update test-vectors
* fix remains from rebasing
* use SignMessageType instead of byte everywhere
* fixes from review
* require block.Time of the fist block to be genesis time
Refs #2587:
```
We only start validating block.Time when Height > 1, because there is no
commit to compute the median timestamp from for the first block. This
means a faulty proposer could make the first block with whatever time
they want.
Instead, we should require the timestamp of block 1 to match the genesis
time.
I discovered this while refactoring the ValidateBlock tests to be
table-driven while working on tests for #2560.
```
* do not accept blocks with negative height
* update changelog and spec
* nanos precision for test genesis time
* Fix failing test (#2607)

* address comments from peer review session (thx @xla)
- contains all changes besides the test-coverage / error'ing branches

* spec: remove TODO, see #1749 instead
* spec: make issues from TODOs
* update docs on addr_book_strict option
* mempool: Store txs by hash inside of cache
This allows for large cachesizes, without fear of the memory
consumption growing rapidly.
* (squash this) rename hashedTx -> txHash
* [p2p/pex] connect to more than 10 peers
also, remove DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers because a) I am not sure it's
needed b) it's super confusing
look closely
```
maxPeers := sw.config.MaxNumPeers - DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers
if maxPeers <= sw.peers.Size() {
sw.Logger.Info("Ignoring inbound connection: already have enough peers", "address", inConn.RemoteAddr().String(), "numPeers", sw.peers.Size(), "max", maxPeers)
```
we print maxPeers = config.MaxPeers - DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers. So we
may not have enough peers even though we say we have enough.
Refs #2130
* update spec
* replace MaxNumPeers with MaxNumInboundPeers/MaxNumOutboundPeers
Refs #2130
* update changelog
* make max rpc conns formula visible to users
* update spec
* docs: note max outbound peers excludes persistent
