This commit merges the RPC introduction section (h4), "JSON-RPC &
bitcoin-cli" into the currently-empty RPC section (h3). To do this, it
splits the contents of the file `_includes/ref_core_rpc_intro.md` into
the new files `_includes/ref/bitcoin-core/api-intro.md` and
`_includes/ref/bitcoin-core/rpcs/intro.md`
Suggested by Saivann: RPC tables with Name/Type/Presence/Description
format are now in .ntpd CSS class so that we can format them specially.
We also change the style of all dev doc tables to replace bold table
headings (thead) with a double-line border-bottom. This makes the
theads look less like section headings and prevents us from over-using
bold.
Minor: a Makefile warning message has been made more explicit (also
suggested by Saivann) and another Makefile rule was updated to catch
more broken tables.
* All previously-documented RPCs have had their text completely
rewritten.
* All new RPCs and changed RPCs in Bitcoin Core 0.10.0 have been
documented, except for hidden RPCs.
* A new RPC "Quick Reference" section has been added to make finding the
right RPC easier.
* A "See Also" subsection has been added to the end of every RPC
pointing to other relevant information.
* All previous examples in the RPC section have been re-run and updated
as necessary.
* Syntax highlighting has been added wherever possible.
* Hash byte order has been specified as RPC byte order everywhere it's
used in RPCs.
Briefly describe the JSON-RPC 1.0 format as used by Bitcoin Core and how
bitcoin-cli abstracts away some of the details. Also link to the
Proper Money Handling wiki page. (This as a vanguard PR preparing the
way for a larger overhaul of our RPC docs, including updating them for
0.10.)
* Replaced text justification with left-align (raggedright) for all text
in dev docs.
* Removed previous manual left-align in RPC byte order table
* Changed placement of See Below text partly based on a suggestion by
@saivann (thanks!)
* Normalized capitialization of special structures (e.g. s/TxIn/txIn/)
to be consistent with some other parts of the docs. (I don't think
we're fully consistent on this in all parts of the docs. I'll put a
rule in the style guide today and then we can make changes on the next
global proofread.)
* Fixed missing period found by @saivann (thanks!) and a related missing
preposition.
* Sorted the _includes/references.md file as it became unclear where
links should be added.
* Fixed accidentally lowercased "merkle" at start of sentence.
* Add a short subsection about the different byte orders used with
hashes in Bitcoin Core and other software.
* Re-word some text in other sections to mention the byte order
differences
