rABC3ea13c39e5c8: Make sure compact blocks work when there are more than 65536 transactions in a…

Summary

As per title. The compact block code rely heavily on the use of 16 bits integers, which made it unsuitable for the propagation of block containing a large number of transactions.

Depends on D1144

Test Plan

abc-p2p-compactblocks was updated to ensure that blocks with a very large number of transactions are passed back and forth.

LGTM. The equivalent in XT is in PR https://github.com/bitcoinxt/bitcoinxt/pull/344.

Are there any other clients than XT and ABC that support compact blocks on BCH? If so, I still think this deserves a version number bump. This is backward compatible for us, but not forward compatible for them.
