* add missing options to config.toml template and docs

* config#ValidateBasic
Refs #2232
* [config] timeouts as time.Duration, not ints
Why:
- native type provides better guarantees than ", in ms" comment (harder
to shoot yourself in the leg)
- flexibility: you can change units
* docs: link consensus to blockchain spec. closes#2422
* docs: deprecate research section. closes#2401
* docs: fix some links
* docs: fix some markdown lists
* docs: fix more links
Closes#2421.
I am of the opinion that the spec is easier to read than this though,
and we shouldn't really explain this here other than that we use a variant
of station to station protocol, with X25519 for the diffie hellman, and we
describe the related security properties.
Why:
original fork is abandoned and not supported anymore.
Changes:
- LevelDB 1.19 (LevelDB and Snappy are both compiled and linked statically, so while you will not need them installed on your target machine, you should have a roughly compatible version of libstdc++.)
- snappy and lz4 libs included by default
* addr_book_strick=false on local nets
* link to spec
* spec: remove TODO, see #1749 instead
* spec: make issues from TODOs
* update docs on addr_book_strict option
* [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.

Currently the top level directory contains basically all of the code
for the crypto package. This PR moves the crypto code into submodules
in a similar manner to what `golang/x/crypto` does. This improves code
organization.

Default to 1 because usually there's just one collector.
