Corrupt wallets used to cause a DB_RUNRECOVERY uncaught exception and a crash. This commit does three things: 1) Runs a BDB verify early in the startup process, and if there is a low-level problem with the database: + Moves the bad wallet.dat to wallet.timestamp.bak + Runs a 'salvage' operation to get key/value pairs, and writes them to a new wallet.dat + Continues with startup. 2) Much more tolerant of serialization errors. All errors in deserialization are reported by tolerated EXCEPT for errors related to reading keypairs or master key records-- those are reported and then shut down, so the user can get help (or recover from a backup). 3) Adds a new -salvagewallet option, which: + Moves the wallet.dat to wallet.timestamp.bak + extracts ONLY keypairs and master keys into a new wallet.dat + soft-sets -rescan, to recreate transaction history This was tested by randomly corrupting testnet wallets using a little python script I wrote (https://gist.github.com/3812689)
