As the core RPC server is being redone to use ZeroMQ and the legacy RPC
is being wrapped around that, RPC IP and Port args still need to stick
around for the daemon's remote invocation. This will likely change in
the near future.
Due to a bug in unbound, we were passing a string containing a null
character to ub_ctx_resolvconf and ub_ctx_hosts rather than a NULL
pointer. On *nix this wasn't causing headache, but on Windows this was
causing unbound to not correctly load DNS settings from the OS.
Note on the bug: in a Windows-specific code branch in the function
ub_ctx_hosts(), if the hosts file specified was a NULL pointer, a call
to getenv() was stored in a local char* and later freed. This is
incorrect, as we do not own that data, and caused the program to crash.
Daemon interactive mode is now working again.
RPC mapped calls in daemon and wallet have both had connection_context
removed as an argument as that argument was not being used anywhere.

DNSSEC is now implemented with the hardcoded key from unbound.
This will need to be not hardcoded in the future, but is okay for now.
Unit tests updated for DNSSEC (as well as for the fact that, contrary to
previous assumption, example.com does not have a static IP address).

There was a workaround for linking to boost at all on MINGW, but
unfortunately this workaround would not correctly link to boost
statically. This workaround for that workaround works around the issue
that that workaround had.
